1 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Introduction This user guide contains information on the preparation, operation and maintenance of the T hermo Scientific Orion ORP electrodes. T hese ORP electrodes combine a platinum redox sensing electrode and a silver/silv er c hloride ref erence electrode in one body .
2 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Required Equipment 1 . Thermo Scientific Orion pH/mV meter , suc h as the 3-Star pH meter , 4-St ar pH/ISE meter , 4-Star pH/DO meter , 4-St ar pH/conductivity meter or 5-St ar pH/ISE/DO/conductivity meter . ORP electrodes can be used on any pH/mV meter with a BNC or U.
3 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Sample Requirements Electrodes with an epoxy body should only be used in aqueous solutions. Electrodes with a glass body may be used in non-aqueous solutions and solutions that contain organic solvents.
4 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Electrode Preparation Electrode Preparation for Refillable Electrodes 1 . Remo ve the protectiv e shipping cap from the sensing element and sav e the cap for storage. 2. Clean any salt deposits from the e xterior of the electrode by rinsing with distilled water .
5 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide filling hole Ag/AgCl internal reference filling solution chamber ceramic reference junction sensing element fill hole AgAgCl internal reference reference filling s.
6 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Electrode Calibration ORP readings can be reported using the absolute mV values or the E H mV values. E H mV v alues give the cor responding mV values that w ould be obtained using a St andard Hydrogen Electrode (SHE), also known as the Normal Hy drogen Electrode (NHE).
7 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide T emperat ur e (°C) E H V alue (mV) Absolute V alue with Cat. No . 900 0 1 1 Filling Solution (mV) Absolute V alue with Cat.
8 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Measurement T echniques • Alwa ys use fresh ORP standard for calibration. • If the electrode is refillable, remov e the filling hole cov er during measurements to ensure a uniform fl ow of filling solution. • Between measurements, thoroughly rinse the electrode with distilled water .
9 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Electrode Measurements Direct Measurements Direct oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) measurements can be used to determine the oxidizing or reducing capability of a solution and are commonly made in polluted streams, c hlorinated w aters, industrial waste waters and other w ater samples.
10 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Oxidation-Reduction T itrations Oxidation-reduction or redox titrations pro vide a simple, reliable method for determining man y substances in solution. A redox titration consists of adding to an unkno wn sample small increments of a titrant that conv erts the unknown to a dif f erent oxidation state.
11 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide 6. Calculate the normality of the sample, N x , in equivalents per liter . N x = (V t * N t ) / V x where: N t = normality of titrant (Eq/1) V t = volume of titrant at end point (mL) V x = volume of sample (mL) T able 2 Refer ences: 1 .
12 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide T able 2– T ypical Redo x Titration Methods Unknown Int erf er ences antimony (Sb +3 ) As, F e, SO 2 , V , and organic substances arsenic (As +3 ) other reducing ag.
13 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Suitable Titrants Titration Reaction Ref potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) 5Sb +3 + 2MnO 4 ¯ + 1 6H + –› 5Sb +3 + 2Mn +2 + 8H 2 O 2 sodium bromate (NaBrO 3 ) BrO .
14 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Electrode Maintenance 1 . Inspect the electrode for scratc hes, cracks, salt crystal buildup, or membrane/junction deposits. 2. Rinse of f any salt buildup with distilled w ater . Remo ve an y membrane/junction deposits as directed in the General Cleaning section.
15 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Electrode Cleaning Procedures General Cleaning 1 . Soak the electrode in 0.1 M HCl or HNO 3 for half an hour . The electrode can also be soak ed for 1 5 minutes in a 1:1 0 dilution of household laundr y bleac h or a 0.
16 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Sure-Flow Electrode Cleaning Cat. No. 9678BNWP and 967800 If the area between the electrode sleev e and inner cone becomes clogged with sample or precipitate, flush the area with filling solution or distilled water .
17 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Reassembling the Sure-Flo w Electr ode 1 . Moisten the O-ring on the electrode body with a drop of filling solution.
18 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide T roubleshooting F ollow a sy stematic procedure to isolate the problem. The measuring system can be divided into f our components for ease in troubleshooting: meter , electrode, sample/application and tec hnique. Meter The meter is the easiest component to eliminate as a possible cause of error .
19 Redox/ORP Electrode User Guide Checking Electrode Operation Chec king the electrode is necessary only when there is evidence of malfunction that cannot be traced to other causes. Fill the electrode with Cat. No. 900 0 1 1 filling solution for this testing procedure.
