Optimal storage and care with Growth Technology Storage Solution
Proper maintenance of electrodes is essential for accurate readings and extending their lifespan. Growth Technology Storage Solution is designed to provide the optimal environment for safely storing sensitive electrodes. Here’s how this solution supports their performance and care.
Why correct storage matters
Electrodes are sensitive instruments used to measure key parameters like pH or conductivity. Their precision relies on proper care, including cleaning and storage. After using an electrode, simply rinsing it with distilled water is not enough. Storing it in a solution, such as Growth Technology's Storage Solution, maintains the hydration of the electrode without damaging its glass bulb or sensitive membrane.
How to store electrodes
After completing a measurement, rinse the electrode with distilled water and store it in a container, like the electrode cap or a small bottle. Ensure the electrode tip stays moist with a storage solution. Growth Technology Storage Solution contains KCI 3.5M, or alternatively buffer 4, to keep the electrode ready for use.
Avoid using moistened cotton or any material that may touch the electrode bulb, as this could damage its sensitive components.
Deep cleaning tips
In certain cases, a more thorough cleaning is needed, especially if the electrode has been used in wastewater or high-color solutions. Soak the electrode tip in a 0.1% hydrochloric acid solution for at least 15 minutes to restore its original accuracy.
Ensure longevity with Growth Technology Storage Solution
Using Growth Technology Storage Solution protects your electrode and extends its lifespan. Whether you’re performing routine measurements or handling more demanding tasks, this solution ensures accurate, reliable performance, and keeps your electrodes in optimal condition.
