Conductivity electrode maintenance
Refer to the electrode operation manuals for how to

Long-term storage
When an electrode will not be used for a long period of
time, store it after performing the following procedure.
Also, perform maintenance on the electrode every three
to six months.
1.
Remove the electrode from the meter.
2.
Use pure (de-ionized) water to wash away any
sample solution that may have adhered to the
electrode.
3.
Wash the inside of the electrode protective cap
with pure (ion exchange) water, then, after
shaking out the water, fill the cap with enough
pure (de-ionized) water to soak the sponge.
4.
Place the electrode protective cap on the
electrode.
