pure water, then submerge it in the soaking solution for 24 hours to renew it.
4.5.5. Clean contaminated glass bulb and junction (please refer to Chart - 6)
Chart – 6 Clean contaminated glass bulb and junction
Note: The electrode housing is polycarbonate. When use cleaning solutions, take cautions on
carbon tetrachloride, trichlorethylene, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, etc., which will dissolve the
housing and invalidate the electrode.
5 mV Value Measurement:
5.1 Press key, and switch the meter to mV measurement mode. Connect
ORP electrode (need to purchase separately) and dip it in sample
solution, stir the solution briefly and allow it to stay in the solution until
icon appears and get the reading, which is the *ORP value.
*ORP stands for Oxidation Reduction Potential. The unit is mV.
5.2. Notes
5.2.1. ORP measurement does not require calibration. When the user is not sure about ORP electrode
quality or measuring value, use ORP standard solution to test mV value and see whether ORP electrode
or meter works properly.
5.2.2. Clean and Activate ORP Electrode
After the electrode has been used over long period of time, the platinum surface will get polluted, which
causes inaccurate measurement and slow response. Please refer to the following methods to clean and
activate ORP electrode:
(a) For inorganic pollutant, submerge the electrode in 0.1mol/L dilute hydrochloric acid for 30 minutes, then
wash it in pure water, then submerge it in the soaking solution for 6 hours.
