pH probe storage method (pHep5)
For those who use the pHep5 pH meter or a similar meter with a short
probe with a bulky shaped electrode-end, how do you manage to store
your probe in KCl so that it remains fully immersed without the
solution evaporating?
I've always driven my cyclindrical probes through a rubber bung which
fits into a bottle of KCl solution. That way it's totally sealed and
the probe remains submerged. But the probe for the pHep5 is quite
short and bulky at the electrode end so this method does not seem
possible. I don't trust the cap not to dry out, so any suggestions for
storage?
Thanks,
Ben
