Section 1 Product overview The Intellical MTC101 series ORP probes are digital, combination electrodes that measure the oxidation reduction potential (ORP/Redox) of wastewater, drinking water and general water samples. The probes have a non-refillable, gel-filled electrolyte and a built-in temperature sensor. The open reference junction gives an optimum electrical connection between the sample and the electrolyte and does not become clogged.

4. To remove inorganic mineral deposits, soak the probe sensor and platinum disc in a solution of 0.1 M hydrochloric acid or 0.1 M nitric acid for a maximum of 15 minutes. 5. Rinse the probe with deionized water. Blot dry with a lint-free cloth. 6.
N O T I C E 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. For short-term storage, the probe can stay in the sample for a maximum of 2 hours if the sample pH is not high.
