Note: The 5905 must be plugged into a YSI meter and the
stirrer power plug must be plugged into its power adapter. The
5010 must be plugged into a YSI meter only, as it gets its
stirring power from the 5000/5100 instrument.

Follow these instructions to change membrane caps:
1.
Remove the stir paddle from the probe by pulling it straight
out.
2.
Unscrew the old membrane cap from the probe. Before
installing a new membrane, clean the probe tip with
deionized water in order to remove any contaminants.
3.
Hold the membrane cap and fill it at least ½ full with the
electrolyte solution provided. Screw the membrane cap onto
the probe moderately tight. A small amount of electrolyte
should overflow.
4.
Rinse off excess electrolyte from the probe with deionized
water.
5.
Reinstall the stir paddle.
New Probe Use
New probes are shipped with a dry membrane cap to protect
the electrodes. A new membrane cap must be installed
before first use.
