Cause
Electrode:
– Air bubble in front of the
junction
– Air in the junction
– Gel electrolyte dried out
Test sample:
– The pH value lies outside the
measuring range
Cause
----
Electrode:

positioned on the bottom of
the cell shaft.
– Clean the cell
– Clean the cell shaft
– Set the dilution
– Select other program
– Perform zero measurement
– Remeasure the blank value
Remedy
– Remove air bubble
– Extract air or
