PREPARATION PROCEDURE
Preparation of potassium electrode:
• Remove the protective cap from the
HI 61014
potassium sensor’s tip.
• Screw the potassium cell into the electrode body. Ensure the Sealing Ring is installed before
screwing.
• Due to shipping or storage the internal solution inside the sensing modules may have
developed an air pocket near the membrane. Gently shaking the sensor down (like the old
style mercury thermometers) will place the internal solution next to the membrane.
• Soak in potassium standard 10
-2
M for at least half-hour before measurements in order to
optimize the sensor response.
