Storage
Place the electrode in the storage protector
AgCl.
Life of an electrode
The average life expectancy of a pH electrode is approximately
one year depending on the working conditions.
An electrode used for more than six months that does not re-
sponse appropriately after regeneration, must be replaced by a
new one. To avoid accidental breakage of the glass body elec-
trodes, the use of the working protector is recommended.
If an electrode has too short lifespan, less than three
months, ask us about it. Probably there are more suitable elec-
trode for the application.
