LaMotte Tracer Salt Meter - Manual (Page 19)

MAINTENANCE
Storage
1. Rinse the electrode in distilled or deionized water.
2. Store the electrode with the cap on. Keep the sponge in the cap
soaked with tap water or pH 4 buffer solution.
3. Always rinse the electrode in deionized water between
measurements to avoid cross contamination. Double rinsing is
recommended when high accuracy is required.
4. Salt deposits may build up in the storage cap and should periodically
be rinsed away. These deposits could affect measurements at low
conductivity.
Battery Replacement
1. Twist off the battery compartment cap.
2. Hold the battery housing in place with one finger. Remove the
battery carrier by pulling on the small tabs.
3. Replace the four CR2032 batteries. Observe polarity.
4. Replace the battery compartment cap.
Electrode Care
1. Always rinse the electrode in distilled or deionized water between
measurements to avoid cross-contamination of the samples. Double
rinsing is recommended when high accuracy is required.
2. Do not touch the electrodes. Touching the surface of the platinized
electrodes may damage and reduce the life of the electrodes.
