Dry storage of pH electrodes is the most common cause of pH meter failure in hydroponics!
“pH electrodes last several years when stored properly.”
pH electrodes should be stored in a specialized solution when not in use. This helps prevent dehydration of the glass electrode and porous frit (or wick) while preserving the electrode’s filling solution. pH buffers and distilled water are not suitable for storing pH electrodes as they can upset electrode calibration. Electrode storage solutions are carefully structured formulations that do not interfere with the chemical composition of the liquid/gel that is contained within the electrode.
pH electrodes should be stored in a specialized solution when not in use*. Flairform pH Electrode Storage helps:
Maintain electrode accuracy and response time.
Eliminate reading ‘drift.’
Maximize electrode lifespan.
Available in 250ml.
Flairform pH Electrode Cleaner - 250ml
For cleaning pH & conductivity electrodes
Electrode cleaners are usually made from acids, alkalis or chelates. However, these chemicals are largely ineffective for cleaning electrodes that have been contaminated by nutrient solution.
Flairform's Electrode Cleaner is designed especially for use in hydroponics. In many situations, Electrode Cleaner eliminates the need to re-calibrate.
Suitable for both PH and conductivity meter electrodes
Remove both inorganic and organic contamination.
Restores electrode accuracy and response time.
Maximize electrode lifespan.
Unlike with other cleaners, the electrode does not require 'rest' time after being cleaned.
Easy to use: Soak electrode for 5 minutes.
Available in 250ml
