• Dry Membrane/Junction: Soak in Storage Solution HI 70300
for at least 1 hour.
• Drifting: Soak the electrode tip in warm Hanna Solution HI
7082 for 1 hour, then flush tip with distilled water. Refill with
fresh HI 7071 for single junction electrodes and HI 7082 for
double junction electrodes.
• Low Slope: Refer to the cleaning procedure above.
• No Slope: Check the electrode for cracks in glass stem or bulb
and replace the electrode.
• Slow Response/Excessive Drift: Soak the tip in Hanna Solu-
tion HI 7061 for 30 minutes, rinse thoroughly in distilled water
and then follow the Cleaning Procedure above.
Replace the solution in the protective cap with a few drops of HI
70300 Storage Solution. Follow the Preparation Procedure above
before taking measurements.
Note: NEVER STORE THE ELECTRODE IN DISTILLED WATER OR DRY.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Inspect the electrode and the cable. The cable used for connection to
the meter must be intact and there must be no points of broken
insulation on the cable or cracks on the electrode stem or bulb.
Connectors must be perfectly clean and dry.
If any scratches or cracks are present, replace the electrode.
Rinse off any salt deposits with water.
For refillable electrodes:
Refill it with fresh electrolyte (HI 7071 for single junction or HI 7082
for double junction electrodes). Allow the electrode to stand upright
for 1 hour.
Follow the Storage Procedure above.
CLEANING PROCEDURE
General Soak in Hanna HI7061 General Cleaning Solution for
approximately 1 hour.
Removal of films, dirt or deposits on the membrane/junction:
-
Protein
Soak in Hanna HI 7073 Protein Cleaning
Solution for 15 minutes.
-
Inorganic
Soak in Hanna HI 7074 Inorganic Cleaning
Solution for 15 minutes.
-
Oil/grease
Rinse with Hanna HI 7077 Oil and Fat Clean
ing Solution.
IMPORTANT: After performing any of the cleaning procedures rinse
the electrode thoroughly with distilled water, drain and refill the
reference chamber with fresh electrolyte, (not necessary for GEL filled
electrodes) and soak the electrode in HI 70300 Storage Solution for
at least 1 hour before taking measurements.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Evaluate your electrode performance based on the following possibilities:
• Noise (Readings fluctuate up and down) could be due to:
- Clogged/Dirty Junction: Refer to the Cleaning Procedure above.
- Loss of shielding due to low electrolyte level (in refillable
electrodes only): refill with fresh HI 7071 for single junction or HI
7082 for double junction electrodes.
