This is normal with electrodes and they will
disappear when rinsed with water.

In the event that measurements are per-
formed with solutions containing sulfides or
proteins, the cleaning of the diaphragm of
the reference electrode must be performed
(see page 21, "Cleaning Procedure").
In order to have a correct functioning of the
ORP electrode, immerse it into HI 7020 and
measure the response; the obtained value
should be within 200 and 275 mV.
After this functional test, it is suggested to
wash the electrode thoroughly with water
and proceed to the oxidizing or reducing
pre-treatment before taking measurements.
When not in use, the electrode tip should be
kept moist and far from any type of me-
chanical stress which might cause damage.
For this reason , the use of the protective
cap supplied with the electrode is advised.
