STORAGE
1. It is recommended that electrodes be stored in their original shipping containers until needed.
2. Do not store at temperatures below -5°C (23°F).
3. Electrodes should be stored with a protective cap containing KCl solution (PN 9210342).
4. For overnight storage, immerse the sensor in tap water or
4 pH buffer solution.
ELECTRODE PREPARATION
1. Remove electrode from shipping container.
2. Remove the protective boot covering the electrode bulb.
NOTE
Do not allow lubricant to coat the platinum band or
reference junction. If it does, wipe it clean before
installation.
INSTALLATION
For sensor orientation, see Figure 2.
For wiring, see Figures 3 - 6.

WARNING
Before removing the sensor, be absolutely certain
that the process pressure is reduced to 0 psig and
the process temperature is lowered to a safe level!
WARNING
The wetted sensor materials may not be compatible
with process com position and operating conditions.
Application compat ibility is entirely the
responsi-
bility of the user.

Special Conditions for safe use
1. All pH/ORP sensors have a plastic enclosure which must only be cleaned with a damp cloth to avoid the
danger due to a build up of an electrostatic charge.
2. All pH/ORP sensor Models are intended to be in contact with the process fluid and may not meet the 500V
r.m.s. a.c. test to earth. This must be taken into consideration at installation.
ORP CALIBRATION
1. After making an electrical connection between the sensor
and the instrument, obtain a standard solution of saturated quinhydrone. This can also be made quite simply
by adding a few crystals of quinhydrone to either pH 4 or
pH 7 buffer. Quinhydrone is only slightly soluble, therefore only a few crystals will be required.
2. Immerse the sensor in the standard solution. Allow 1-2
minutes for the ORP sensor to stabilize.
3. Adjust the standardize control of the instrument to the
solution value shown in the table below. The resulting
potentials, measured with a clean platinum electrode
and saturated KCl/AgCl reference electrode, should be
within +/- 20 millivolts of the value shown in the table
below. Solution temperature must be noted to ensure
accurate interpretation of results. The ORP value of saturated quinhydrone solution is not stable over long periods of time. Therefore, these standards should be made
up fresh each time they are used.
4. Remove the sensor from the buffer, rinse, and install in
the process.
MAINTENANCE
Electrodes should respond rapidly. Sluggishness, offsets,
and erratic readings are indicators that the electrodes may
need cleaning or replacement.
1. To remove oil deposit, clean the electrode with a mild
non-abrasive detergent.
2. To remove scale deposits, soak electrodes for 30 to 60
minutes in a 5% hydrochloric acid solution.
3. ORP (metallic) electrodes should be polished with moistened baking soda.
