Redox Weirdness?
Hello - my Redox probe and interface appears to work well - but it seems to be giving me false results.
My probe was giving me results at around 380-420 - then I put it in a redox calibration fluid (230mv), and the probe returned 190. Without recalibrating, I put it back in place. It now reports 250.
This type of behavior has happned before - has anyone had similar experiences? By the way, I have two probes, and both are acting similarly.
Re: Redox Weirdness?
Yes you need to clean and rince the probe after calibration. some of the calibration fluid residule will affect your reading.
Re: Redox Weirdness?
I do not think that you understand the problem - if I leave the probe in the aquarium for 3 weeks - the reported value grows... and even if I put it in tap water, dry it, put it into the aquarium, the value is completely different.

Hi gilpayson,
the Redox probe need a longer time to work well and to give a real value.
For calibration I usually leave the probe in the solution for a week before confirming on the controller the calibration, then I put the probe in sump and I don't mind for the first week values.....
Bye
