Under typical operating conditions, the probe will need to be replaced every 6 to 12
months.
In extreme applications, the probe may wear out sooner. Proper care and
maintenance will help you receive the maximum probe life and ensure more accurate
readings.
readings.
Keep the probe clean. Before use, rinse the probe twice. Be sure to remove the protective
cap of the pH probe before use and always immerse the probe beyond the electrode band.
For the best accuracy, soak your probe in electrode storage solution, pH 4.0 buffer, or tap
water for at least 5 to 10 minutes before calibration.

Clean the probe thoroughly by immersing it in an agitated mild detergent bath. To clean the
conductivity cell, remove the plastic sleeve and use a cotton swab soaked in isopropyl alcohol
to clean the steel pins. Wipe the steel pins if needed with soft tissue paper. Replace the
sleeve which is necessary for calibration and measurement. DO NOT wipe the pH bulb as it
may cause static build-up. After cleaning the probe, rinse the probe well with clean water.
Recalibrate the meter after cleaning the probe.
