Cause Remedy
IDS pH sensor:
– Measured value outside the measur-

– Use suitable IDS pH sensor
– Air bubble in front of the diaphragm – Remove air bubble
– Air in the diaphragm – Extract air or moisten junction
– Cable broken – Exchange IDS pH sensor
– Gel electrolyte dried out – Exchange IDS pH sensor
Cause Remedy
IDS pH sensor:
– The values determined for zero point
and slope of the IDS pH sensor are
outside the allowed limits.
– Recalibrate
– Diaphragm contaminated – Clean diaphragm
– IDS pH sensor broken – Exchange IDS pH sensor
Buffer solutions:
– The used buffer solutions do not
agree with the set buffer set
– Set different buffer set
or
– Use different buffer solutions
– Buffer solutions too old – Use only once.
Note the shelf life
– Buffer solutions depleted – Change solutions
