INSTRUCTION MANUAL 
 
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 
 
Eutech Instruments Sodium Ion Electrode is used to measure sodium ions in aqueous solutions 
quickly, simply, accurately, and economically. 
 
Required Equipment 
 
1. 
A pH/mV meter or an ion meter, either line operated or portable. 
 
2. 
Semi-logarithmic 4-cycle graph paper for preparing calibration curves when using the 
meter in the mV mode. 
 
3. 
A magnetic stirrer. 
 
4. 
Eutech Sodium Ion Combination Epoxy-body Electrode, Code no. EC-LNA-03. 
 
5. 
Lab-ware made of glass, except for low level measurements where plastic-ware is 
required. 
 
Required Solutions 
 
1. 
Deionized or distilled water for solution and standard preparation. 
 
2. 
Eutech Ionic Strength Adjuster (ISA), 4M NH
4
Cl/4M NH
4
OH, Code no. EC-ISA-LNA1-
BT. To prepare this solution from your own laboratory stock, half fill a 1,000 ml 
volumetric flask with distilled water and add 214 grams of reagent-grade ammonium 
chloride (NH
4
Cl). Under a hood, add 270 ml of concentrated ammonium hydroxide 
(NH
4
OH), swirl the flask gently to dissolve the solid, and allow to cool. Fill the flask to 
the mark with distilled water, cap, and upend several times to mix the solution. 
 
3. 
Dilute Electrode Rinse Solution. To prepare this solution from your own laboratory 
stock, add 20 ml of ISA to a one liter volumetric flask and fill to the mark with distilled 
water. Use this solution to rinse the electrode between measurements. DO NOT RINSE 
WITH DISTILLED WATER. 
 
4. 
Eutech Sodium Standard, 0.1M NaCl, Code no. EC-SCS-LNA1-BT. To prepare this 
solution from your own laboratory stock, half fill a one liter volumetric flask with 
distilled water and add 5.84 grams of reagent-grade NaCl. Swirl the flask gently to 
dissolve the solid.  Fill the flask to the mark with distilled water, cap, and upend several 
times to mix the solution. 
 
5. 
Eutech Sodium Standard, 1,000 ppm Na
+
, Code no. EC-SCS-LNA2-BT. To prepare this 
solution from your own laboratory stock, half fill a one liter volumetric flask with 
distilled water and add 2.542 grams of reagent grade NaCl. Swirl the flask gently to 
dissolve the solid. Fill the flask to the mark with distilled water, cap, and upend several 
times to mix the solution.
