B. Maintenance of the pH/ORP Sensor
The sensor well must be kept wet with a solution. Before replacing
therubbercap,rinseandllthesensorwellwithMyronLpHSensor
Storage Solution. If unavailable, you can use an almost saturated KCl
solution, a saturated solution of table salt and tap water or pH 4 buffer
(ref. pH and ORP Practices to Maintain Calibration, pg. 24). NEVER
USE DISTILLED WATER.
VII. SPECIFIC RECOMMENDED MEASURING PROCEDURES
If the proper solution is not selected (KCl, NaCl, or 442), see Solution
Selection, pg. 15.
CAUTION:
• ForCond/Res/TDSmeasurements:
• ThepH/ORPsensorwellcapMUST be sealed.
• AnycrystalsorotherresiduearoundthecapMUST be rinsed
away to prevent contamination of the conductivity sample.
• TheconductivitycellMUSTberinsedandlledatleast3times
with sample before each measurement is taken.
• ForpH/ORPmeasurements:
• BoththepH/ORPsensorwellandtheconductivitycellMUST
berinsedandlledatleast3timeswithsamplebeforeeach
measurement is taken.
• After sampling high concentration solutions or temperature
extremes, more rinsing may be required.
A. Measuring Conductivity & Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
WARNING: When using a Digital Dialysate Meter™ to check the
conductivity of dialysate, the solution conversion factor MUST be
set to the NaCl conversion factor.
• Ifthepropersolutionconversionfactorisnotselected,seeProcedure
to Select a Solution, pg. 15, for instructions on setting it.
1. Rinse cell cup 3 times with sample to be measured. (This
conditions the temperature compensation network and prepares
the cell.)
2. Rellcellcupwithsample.
3. Press or .
4. Take reading. A display of [- - - -] indicates an overrange
condition.
