Foralltype465combinationpHelectrodestobemounted

intothefollowinghousings:types763,764,776and796.

Werecommendthatthesensormayonlybeinoperation

withtheoriginalaccessoriesfromMETTLERTOLEDO.The

sensor may be operated and serviced only by personnel

familiarwiththeunit,andwhohavereadandunderstood

thisinstructionmanual.

1 Installation

 a Whenunpacking,checkelectrodeforpossiblemechanical

damage to the pH sensitive glass, the diaphragm or the

body.Electrodessubjecttocomplaintsmustbereturnedto

usortoouragentintheoriginalboxindicatingtheinvoice

number.

 b Takeoffwateringcapandwashtheelectrodetipwithdistilled

water.Afterrinsingwithdistilledwater,dabtheelectrodewith

atissue.Donotrubas anincreaseof theresponsetime

mightresult.

c Important: Reference electrolyte ller tube:The T-shaped

rubber stopper as well as the elastic securing band ha-

ve to be removed completely from the electrode,before

insertingtheelectrodeintothehousing.RemoveanyKCl

solutionresidinginthellingport.Re-assemblethehousing

asdescribedintheinstructionforthehousing.

 d EliminateanyairbubblestrappedbehindthepHsensitive

glassbysmoothlyswingingtheunitintheverticalplane.

Thelead-offelementoftheglasselectrodemustdipintothe

innerbuffersolutionwithoutairbubbles.

tobesoakedintheappropriatestoragesolutionforseveral

hoursbeforeuse.Itisrecommendedtostorecombination

andreferenceelectrodesinthereferenceelectrolytesolution.

 f Afteralonganddrystorageperiod,thepHsensitiveglasscan

bereactivatedwithhydrouoricacid(orderno.51319053):

followed by rinsing with distilled water and soaking for

12hoursinthestoragesolution.

 g Checkingelectrolytelevel:Combinationelectrodesofthetype

tionismadeintwobuffersolutionsofaknownpHvalueby

dippingtheelectrode intothebufferandadjustingthepH

transmitter.ForfurtherstudiesinpHmeasurementthefollo-

3 Maintenance

 a Aftereachmeasuringcycletheelectrodetipandtheliquid

junctionmustbethoroughlyrinsedwithdistilledwater.Under

nocircumstancemusttheelectrodebeallowedtodrywith

measuringsolutioncoatingit.This is very important.

 b On storage ofanassembledprobe, tip and liquid juncti-

onmustbeleftfullyimmersedinanalkalineKClsolution

(10partsof3MKClorViscolytplus2partsofbuffersolution

pH9.2).WithouttheadditionofbuffersolutionpH9.2the

housingmaycorrode.

 c Theliquidlevelofthereferenceelectrolytemustbechecked

regularly.Ifithassunkbelowthebulbousshaftsectionof

theelectrode,thereferenceelectrolytemustbereplenished.

Attention is drawn to the instructions given in 1.g. above.

d Rapid rise in resistance of reference electrode: A rapid rise

inresistanceofthereferenceelectrode(upto1MΩ)after2

to 3 measuring cycles may occasionally be noticed in media

whicharehighlyenrichedwithproteins.Mosttransmitters

areverysensitivetothisriseinresistance,whichmanifests

itselfthroughadrift.Ifthishappens,theelectrodeshouldbe

treatedwithourelectrodecleaner(orderno.51340068).

Apreventiveaction is tousecombinationelectrodes with

Friscolyt-Breferenceelectrolyte(sufx/9848inproductde-

signation).

e Black diaphragm (liquid junction):If the solution to be

measuredcontainssuldecompounds,theliquidjunction

maybecomeblack.Simultaneously,itsresistancewillrise

signicantly.Suchanelectrodedoesnotworkproperlyany

longerandtreatingwithourdiaphragmcleaner(orderno.

51340070)becomesnecessary.

Apreventivemeasureistheuseofcombinationelectrodest-

tedwithasilver-iontrap(code–SC–inproductdesignation).
