Tips for care
Clean and calibrate your probes monthly to maintain probe accuracy.
- Always store the pH probe in the storage cap with enough KCl Storage Solution (Potassium Chloride) to cover the probe tip. The probe will become damaged if left dry. Read more about KCl Storage Solution.
- The glass tube can be damaged easily. Take care not to knock the glass.
- Don't immerse in oils, proteins or suspended solids that will leave a coating on the glass bulb.
- Never store or soak the pH probe in RO, distilled or deionised water.
