pH Storage Solution

R40.00

Look after the probe that looks after your pH. pH Storage Solution keeps your pH probe moist between uses to maximise electrode performance and extend the life of the electrode.

  • Longer electrode life: keeps the probe moist to maximise performance and extend its lifespan
  • Simple routine: rinse under running water after every use, then add a few drops to the cap and close it
  • Leak-free storage: keep the pH pen upright so the storage solution doesn’t leak out
  • Protects your investment: the glass electrode is the most important part of a pH meter — keep it in good condition

Size 250ml. For storing pH probes and pens between uses.

SKU: NMG085 Category:

Description

pH Storage Solution is used to keep pH probe moist which will maximize electrode performance and extend life of electrode.

Directly after use and before a period of storage rinse your pH electrode under running water after every use. Then place a few drops of pH Storage Solution in cap and close cap.

Please keep pH Pen upright to ensure that storage solution does not leak out.

Size: 250ml

How a pH meter works.  The glass electrode is the most important in reading pH, and consists of an electrical wire made of silver submerged in potassium chloride, surrounded by a special silica and metallic salt-coated conductive tube. The reference electrode is usually made of the same material as the glass electrode, but its tube lacks any special conductive coating.

When submerged in a solution, hydrogen ions will migrate towards the conductive glass electrode and replace some of the metal ions in the coating. This creates a small voltage that the silver electrode is able to pick up, which is then passed on to the voltmeter, which converts the signal into a pH reading. The reference electrode acts as a baseline measurement, and completes the electrical circuit.
