7 MONITORING 
Once the monitor is calibrated it is ready for monitoring. The monitor has two eyelet 
holes. Mount the monitor where it can be easily viewed.

CARE 
AND MAINTENANCE 
Since your pH/ORP electrode is susceptible to dirt and contamination, clean it every 
one to three months depending on the extent and condition of use. Like batteries, a 
pH/ORP electrode has limited life. Depending on the environment and the solution it 
is immersed in, it may last from 6 to 12 months, or longer. Knowing when to change 
your pH/ORP electrode usually comes after some experience. It is best to have 
another pH/ORP tester such as pHScan/ pHTestr 1, Waterproof pHScan/ pHTestr 
WP2, or ORPScan/ ORPTestr as reference.  
8.1  pH/ORP electrode storage 
For best results, always keep the pH/ORP bulb wet. Use the protective electrode 
storage bottle filled with electrode storage solution (0.1M KCl) or pH 7 for overnight 
and long term storage. DO NOT store in distilled water. The sensor should never be 
stored dry. If left dry, soak in tap water or pH 7.0 buffer solution overnight.
