Offset potential The measurable potential of a symmetrical electrode, the membrane
of which is immersed in a solution with the pH of the nominal electrode
zero point. The asymmetry is part of the offset potential.
ORP voltage The ORP is caused by oxidizing or reducing substances dissolved in
water if these substances become effective on an electrode surface
(e. g. a gold or platinum surface).
pH value The pH is a measure of the acidic or basic effect of an aqueous solu-
tion. It corresponds to the negative decadic logarithm of the molal hy-
drogen ions activity divided by the unit of the molality. The practical pH
value is the value of a pH measurement.
Potentiometry Name of a measuring technique. The signal (depending on the mea-
sured parameter) of the electrode is the electrical potential. The elec-
trical current remains constant.
Reset Restoring the original condition of all settings of a measuring system.
Resolution Smallest difference between two measured values that can be dis-
played by a measuring instrument.
Slope The slope of a linear calibration function.
Standard solution The standard solution is a solution where the measured value is
known by definition. It is used to calibrate a measuring system.
Test sample Designation of the sample ready to be measured. Normally, a test
sample is made by processing the original sample. The test sample
and original sample are identical if the test sample was not processed.
