Prior to Use
Remove the protective cap from the bottom of the electrode.
■
For the pH or ORP Electrode:
If the glass sensitive membrane on the electrode dries out, soak the electrode in 3M KCL solution or tap water for at least 15 minutes.
DO NOT use distilled or deionized water, it will shorten the life of sensor.
■
For the Ion Selective Electrodes:
Soak the electrode in the diluted standard solution (e.g. 10ppm) for at least 15 minutes.
Preparation of pH Standard Buffer Solutions
Bante320 portable meter is packaged with three pH buffer packets required for calibration.
Open the pH7.00 buffer packet, place the powder into a 250ml volumetric flask. Pour distilled water 250ml to scale line, mix the solution
until reagent is completely dissolved.
Preparation of pH4.01 and 10.01 standard buffer solutions are the same as above. Prepared standard buffer solutions should be stored in
hermetically sealed glass containers.
