Probe Storage
For short term storage, the probe should be stored in a moist environment to keep the membrane
from drying out and needing replacement. Moisten the sponge with distilled water in the protective
cap. Do not store it directly in the water since that could encourage algae growth on the probe.
Probe Head Replacement
The probe head on the tip of the probe holds a thin TeflonĀ® membrane and an electrolyte
container. Calibration or reading errors could indicate loss of electrolyte or a dirty/damaged
membrane. The membrane is very delicate and can easily be damaged if it comes in contact with
solid objects. Replacement probe heads are available from your local distributor.
Replacement procedure
1. Unscrew the probe head and electrolyte container from the probe handle and discard.
2. Fill the new probe head/electrolyte container with electrolyte.
3. Screw the probe head onto the probe handle. Excess electrolyte may be forced out through the
threads. Wipe clean.
4. Lightly tap the probe to remove any air bubbles.
