Introduction
♦ Calcium Ion Sensor is used to detect concentration of Calcium Ion in solution. It is able to detect in real time with datalogger and software.
Usage
♦ Take out the cover of electrode. Rinse the electrode using distilled water. Dry it using filter paper.
♦ Connect electrode to sensor, datalogger and computer.
♦ Open SWR iLab. Calcium Ion Sensor has been calibrated before manufacturing. Immerse the electrode into solution. Collect data when the electrode becomes stable.
♦ When the experiment is completed, rinse the electrode using distilled water immediately. Dry it using filter paper. Cover the electrode and preserve it in bag.
Notes
♦ To maximize the service life and best function, it is suggested that preserve the electrode in fridge and temperature around 5℃.
♦ Immerse the electrode completely in the solution to be measured during measuring.
♦ When change the sample to test, rinse the electrode using distilled water first. Dry it using filter paper. Immerse the electrode into next solution. It will prevent cross-contamination.
♦ The pH value of sample should be within 4-9.
♦ Keep the plug of electrode dry and clean. Try to avoid corrosion and contamination occur on it.
♦ Try to avoid friction and strong vibration occur on electrode during using.
♦ Do not dry the electrode using gauze or tissue. It may damage sensing membrane.
♦ Standard calcium ion solution should be 2-5 kinds. The concentration should be progressive increase or decrease by 10 times. The range of standard solution should contain the concentration of solution to be measured.
