We recommend daily use of the ph probe storage solution fresh application is recommended once per week a few drops in your probe storage cap at the end of every week should be sufficient.
Ph storage solution kcl.
Always keep your ph electrode moist.
The hydrated layer takes 3 4 hours to form.
If you accidentally store the probe in purified water try storing the probe in 3m kcl storage solution for 48 hours and see if the tester can perform in a normal state.
2 while the probe is soaking prepare a batch of new storage solution.
This item bluelab stsol100 kcl storage solution for ph probes 100ml bluelab calibration solution ph 4 0 7 0 and 2 77 ec conductivity solution 500 ml each bluelab 732899 2 77ec conductivity solution 250 milliliters industrial products clear.
When potassium chloride solution is not available revert to ph 4 or 7 buffer solution.
Ph orp electrodes that are stored dry will lose their sensitivity and accuracy temporarily they can be restored by soaking in the kcl solution.
Any ph 4 buffer mixture works well but use only.
Single junction electrodes use 3 5 m kcl with silver chloride.
This storage solution is for conditioning and extending the service life of regular ph and orp electrodes testers sensors.
10 grams of solid kcl dissolved in 100 ml of ph 4 buffer.
The ph calibration buffer is a water based solution that will.
Ph orp electrodes that are stored dry over time may lose the sensitivity and accuracy temporarily.
Keeping ph orp electrodes stored in the storage solution when not in use is a recommended practice.
The solution you have should be fine if you can change the internal solution on a monthly basis more often if you use it continuously.
Apera instruments 3m kcl storage solution is made with high purity chemicals designed for conditioning and extending the service life of ph or orp electrode.
We recommend that you store your electrode in a solution of 4 m kcl.
All ph measurements are based on the ph calibration solution as a reference point.
Most ph electrode storage solutions are 4 m kcl with a ph about 4.
Make sure the refill hole is left open when measuring to ensure that the fill solution flows properly through the reference junction.
It can be restored by soaking them in the storage solution.
The filling solution in refillable electrodes should be filled up to but not past the refill hole.
A dry probe needs to be hydrated by placing in storage solution before calibration.
Other brands storage solutions are not recommended for use with apera s ph electrodes since they may use different formulas and could cause damage to the products.
