Profile - See pH Setup section. Reading Mode This option allows the user to select the desired reading mode: Direct, Direct/AutoHold, Known Addi- tion, Known Subtraction, Analyte Addition and Analyte Subtraction. Four of these Reading Modes are collectively known as Incremental Methods (see ISE Theory section for details). Direct measurements and Direct/AutoHold measurements are also available.
Page 39
Analyte Subtraction In the Analyte Subtraction method, an aliquot of sample is added to a reactant standard of known concentration and volume. The sample partially reacts with the measured ion. The stoichiometric ratio between standard and sample must be known. The ion concentration is then calculated using the difference in mV potential.
Temperature Compensation ISE measurements benefit from temperature compensated corrections if: • standards and sample temperatures differ from each other • the Isopotential Point of the ISE is known. If sample and standards are made at the same temperature, leave this option disabled. Isopotential Point If the Temperature Compensation is enabled, the isopoten- tial point of the ISE must be added in this parameter.

For greater accuracy, it is recommended to calibrate the ISE sensors frequently. The instrument should be recalibrated when “ISE x Calibration Expired” (the “x” represents channel “1” or channel ”2”) message appears on the LCD, in the Reminder messages area. Due to electrode conditioning time, the electrode must be kept immersed a few seconds to stabilize.

Page 56
Make sure the instrument and ISE sensor have been calibrated before making ISE measurements. When using one of the incremental methods for measurement, at least a two point ISE calibration must be performed to establish the electrode slope. For accurate measurements, add the appropriate ISA (Ionic Strength Adjuster) to both samples and standards.

IMPORTANT: After performing any of the cleaning procedures, rinse the electrode thoroughly with distilled water, refill the reference chamber with fresh electrolyte (not necessary for gel-filled electrodes) and soak the electrode in HI70300 HI80300 Storage Solution for at least 1 hour before taking measurements.
Page 76
The resistance of glass electrodes partially depends on the temperature. The lower the temperature, the higher the resistance. It takes more time for the reading to stabilize if the resistance is higher. Since the resistance of the pH electrode is in the range of 50 – 200 MΩ, the current across the membrane is in the pico Ampere range.
