8.4 Storage

Probes can become permanently damaged if kept in a storage solution that is not specified by the
manufacturer. Use only the specified storage solution (Hach pH electrode storage solution or 3 M
KCl).
Do not store the probe in deionized water or in samples of low ionic strength. Put the soaker bottle
that contains the storage solution on the probe when not in use. Make sure to only use the specified
storage solution. Other solutions contaminate the non-replacement electrolyte gel through the open
reference junction and the probe will not operate correctly. Refer to
vertical position with the sensor and reference junction below the liquid level in the soaker bottle. Add
storage solution to the soaker bottle if necessary.
