4 pH MEASUREMENT
4.1 Information regarding the pH Electrode
The instrument is equipped with a 201T-S 3-in-1 Combination pH Electrode. Its built-in temperature sensor
allows for auto. temperature compensation. There is a vial stored with 3M KCL storage solution on top of
the electrode. Before using, loosen the cap of the vial, take out the electrode and rinse it in distilled water
and then do measurement. When not in use, place the electrode back to the vial and tighten the cap so
that the pH sensor can be stored in the best condition. When the pH electrode is dipped into the test
sample solution, stir it for a few seconds to remove potential air bubbles inside the probe to help the
measurement get stabilized quickly.
When connecting the electrode into the instrument, please slowly rotate the connector, identify the location
of the mount to insert it, and then screw it on. Please note that do not pull on the cables in case of poor
contact.
Please keep the connector clean and dry. For detailed information of the electrode’s maintenance, please
refer to section 4.5.
