Replacing the Electrode 

If the tester fails to calibrate or gives fluctuating readings, you should 
consider replacing the electrode. 
1. 

Twist the electrode collar counter clockwise, pull the electrode 

 

away from the tester. 

 

 

2. 

Align the slot on the new electrode, gently push the electrode 

 

into the tester. 

 

 

3. 

Twist the electrode collar clockwise until tight.

Preparation of Conductivity Standard Solutions 

Place the analytical grade potassium chloride (KCl) in  a beaker and 
dry in an oven for about 3 hours at 105°C (221°F), then cool to room   
temperature. Add the reagent to a 1 liter volumetric flask according 
to the instructions in table below.
