For the mounting of the electrode, flow through
measurements cells can be used. If the electrode shall be
placed at an open water surface, it can be mounted on a
buoy e.g. made of Styrofoam. Please consider here, that the
electrode must be in a place with low to moderate currents
to deliver correct measurement results. If the current is too
large (> 50 cm / s) the measurements are likely to be
disturbed.

Maintenance and cleaning
The electrode must never run dry – not during the usage and
storage. At deliver, a silicone cap filled with 3 M KCL solution
is on the electrode. If you do not use the electrode, put the
filled cap on.
