Preparing the electrode for use
CAUTION
The membrane of the membrane module may not come into contact
with fingers or with other objects under any circumstances. The water-
repellent effect of the membrane would otherwise be reduced as a
result.

1 Fill the membrane module with 2 mL of the measuring electrolyte
(6.2316.030).
2 Remove the measuring electrode from the electrode carrier and rinse
with distilled water.
3 Introduce the measuring electrode into the membrane module and
