7.4 Storage

The storage conditions for the LDO probe can be dry, wet, or humid. Wet storage conditions help to
keep the LDO sensor cap fully hydrated.
Note: After 72 hours of storage in tap water, the LDO sensor cap is fully hydrated.
For daily measurements in the laboratory, keep the probe in a humid environment such as a BOD
bottle filled approximately ¼ full with tap water. If the probe is used to monitor DO concentrations
continuously for more than 6 hours, keep the probe in tap water.
When the probe is used for short periods (less than 6 hours), the storage can be dry. Before dry
storage, rinse the probe in deionized water and blot dry. Soak the probe in tap water for 30 minutes
before use.
