Before Measuring; Sample Preparation - Xylem Ag-S 60 Bedienungsanleitung

+
Ag measurement
2-
S measurement
Note
Minimum depth of immersion:
The diaphragm must be covered
Maximum depth of immersion:
Approx. 1 cm below the fluid level of the bridge electrolyte

Before Measuring

Before use, condition the combination electrode or
electrodes respectively for approx. 5 min. in standard
solution.
Remove any air bubbles in the bridge electrolyte by
slightly knocking against the shaft.
Calibrate according to the operating manual of the meter
and the analysis specification.

Sample preparation

Add 2 % ISA/FK solution. This sample conditioning solution
creates optimum conditions for measuring. It provides a constant
ionic strength and similar diffusion potentials at the reference
electrode in standard and test sample.
Add 50 % SAOB II solution.
Preparation of the SAOB II solution:
200 ml/L 10 molar NaOH
35 g/L ascorbic acid
67 g/L EDTA
A freshly prepared SAOB II solution (Sulfide Anti-Oxidant
Buffer) is colorless or slightly yellowish brown. If the solution
has already strongly oxidized its color is dark brown. In this
case it can no longer be used.
