pH and mV Troubleshooting, continued…
Unstable readings.
1.
Static charge or electrical
noise from near electrical
equipment causing
interference.
2.
Reference junction blocked.
3.
Glass bulb not clean.
4.
Bubble in glass bulb.
5.
Faulty connection to meter.
6.
Reference junction not
immersed.
7.
KCl crystals around
reference junction, inside
the electrolyte chamber.
Fit a solution earth rod to the
Guard
connector.
Clean reference junction as per
instructions supplied with the
sensor.
Clean glass bulb as per
instructions supplied with the
sensor.
Flick the sensor to remove
bubble.
Check connectors. Replace if
necessary.
Ensure that the bulb AND the
reference junction are fully
immersed.
Rinse electrolyte chamber with
warm distilled water until
dissolved. Replace electrolyte.
