10.2 Electrode

Care

The most important rule to follow is to always keep the electrode clean to ensure accurate

measurements. Always take care not to damage the cell.

For general cleaning, the use of de-ionized water will be sufficient. Rinse the electrode

thoroughly in the de-ionized water. After cleaning, wipe the electrode dry. Never touch the

sensors.

For intensive cleaning, when the electrode is contaminated, wash it carefully with isopropanol,

after which wash thoroughly with de-ionized water. Always ensure that there is no blockage of

the electrode cavity. If there is, use a gentle jet of water to dislodge any particles that may

have been stuck there.

Important

Never leave the electrode immersed in dilute or concentrated acids after taking

measurements. Quickly remove the electrode and rinse with de-ionized water thoroughly.

Short period storage: For storage of electrode over short periods, dry the electrode and store

it in a cool place.

Long period storage: Clean the electrode thoroughly with de-ionized water and dry it.

Disconnect the electrode from the meter and store it in a cool place.
