4. Installation and preparation for use

1.Onunpacking,andagainpriortoinstallation,checktheelec-

trodevisuallyforsignsofmechanicaldamagetotheglass

membrane,theshaftandtheconnector.Reportanyfaultsor

defectsimmediatelytoyour authorizedMETTLERTOLEDO

dealer.

2.Removethewateringcapandrinsetheelectrodewithdis-

tilled orde-ionized water.Useonlysofttissuetodab the

electrodedry.Donotrubtheglassmembranesincethiscan

leadtosluggishresponsebehavioroftheelectrode.

3.Electrodeswithadryglassmembranemustbeconditioned

forseveralhoursina3molKClsolutionbeforebeingused.

4.Connectalwaysthesolutionground(bluecable)tothetrans-

mitter.

5.UsePTFEtapetosealtheNPTthread.

6.Ifpossibleusetheprotectionsleeve(orderno.52401808).

5. Cabling

TheInPro4501VPisequippedwithaVarioPinconnector.To

connect thecableto theelectrode,attach and gently rotate

untiltheconnectorisengaged(groove).Screwthecablecap

nutontotheelectrodeuntiltheconnectionissecure.Theplug

assemblyshouldbettedhand-tightonly;notoolsshouldbe

used.Fordetailsoftheexactassignmentoftheindividualcable

6. Calibration and measurement

calibration,thewateringcapmustberemovedfromthepH

electrode.Theelectrodeisthendippedsuccessivelyintotwo

differentbuffersolutions,eachof knownpHvalue,and the

transmittercalibratedtothesebuffervalues(forexample,buf-

ferspH4.01andpH7.00).Pleasenotetheinstructionsgiven

intheoperatingmanualofthetransmitter.Calibrationshould

berepeatedasandwhenneeded.

7. Maintenance

– ElectrodeswithXerolytPluspolymerelectrolytecannotbe

relled.

– Electrodesshouldnotbestoreddryforanyperiodoftime

– Duringstorage,thewateringcapshouldbeinplace,lled

withFriscolyt

or3molKClsolution.

– Neverstoreanelectrodeindistilledordeionizedwater,as

thisshortensthelifetimeoftheelectrode.

– Should the electrode dry out, it must be conditioned for

24hoursinFriscolyt(orderingno.512340053for250mL,
