  • Page 70: Table 3 Relationship Between Temperature Of Ion Selective Electrode And Theoretical Slope

     Impact of pH The ammonia electrode can be used in the specified pH range. The impact of the pH may cause a decrease in the slope of the ammonia electrode, or parallel shifting of the calibration curve. To prevent these effects, add an appropriate amount of pH-adjusting ISA to keep the pH of the solution constant in advance.
  • Page 71: Table 4 Relationship Between Temperature Of Ammonia Electrode And Theoretical Slope

    The optimal way to minimize the impact of temperature on the measurement of the ammonium ion concentration is to reduce the difference between the temperature of the standard solution in calibration and the temperature of the sample solution in measurement to ±1°C. The following table shows the change in the theoretical slope of the ammonia electrode depending on the temperature of the ammonia electrode.
  • Page 72: Impact Of Coexistent Substances

     Impact of coexistent substances Because ammonia electrode determines ammonia concentration by measuring pH change in inner solution caused by ammonia gas permeating through the membrane, presence of acidic or basic gas other than ammonia causes error. Such acidic gas as H S or CO , however, is ionized in alkali region and does not exist as acidic gas, so that no problem...
