10 Maintenance
10.1 Meter maintenance
Never unscrew the two halves of the housing!
The meters do not require any maintenance other than an occasional wipe with a damp cloth and the
replace ment of dead batteries. The housing is made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene/polycarbonate
(ABS/PC). This material is sensitive to some organic solvents, such as toluene, xylene and methyl eth-
yl ketone (MEK).
Any spillage should be wiped off immediately.
10.2 Electrode maintenance
Make sure the pH electrode is always kept filled with the appropriate filling solution.
For maximum accuracy, any filling solution that may have "crept" and encrusted the outside of the elec-
trode should be removed with deionized water.
Always store the electrode according to the manufacturer's instructions and do not allow it to dry out.
If the electrode slope falls rapidly, or if the response becomes sluggish, the following procedures may
help. Try one of the following, depending on your sample.
Problem
Fat or oil build-up
pH sensor membrane has dried out
Protein build-up in the diaphragm of a pH sensor
Silver sulfide contamination of pH sensor
Note
Cleaning and filling solutions should be handled with the same care as that given to toxic or corrosive
sub stances.
