  • Page 5: Section 1 Product Overview

    Section 1 Product overview The Intellical ISENA381 series probes are digital, combination ion-selective electrodes (ISE) that measure the concentration of sodium in wastewater, drinking water and general water samples. The probes are refillable and have a built-in temperature sensor and a double ceramic pin for a reference junction.

  • Page 7: Precautionary Labels

    3.3 Precautionary labels Read all labels and tags attached to the instrument. Personal injury or damage to the instrument could occur if not observed. A symbol on the instrument is referenced in the manual with a precautionary statement. Electrical equipment marked with this symbol may not be disposed of in European domestic or public disposal systems.

    Section 7 Verify the calibration Measure the value of a fresh standard solution at regular intervals to make sure the result is accurate. The meter compares the expected standard solution value to the measured value and accepts or rejects the measurement. The user can change the standard solution and acceptance criteria for verification in the probe-specific settings.

    1. Rinse the probe with the prepared sodium ISA rinse solution. Dry the probe with a lint-free cloth. Do not use deionized water. 2. Soak the glass bulb for 12 to 16 hours in Hach Electrode Cleaning Solution. 3. Soak the probe for 1 minute in 25 mL of a 100-mg/L sodium standard solution that contains one Sodium Ionic Strength Adjustor (ISA) Powder Pillow.
