8. Set up for controlling t e ORP wit an Ozonizer
The redox probe is placed in the aquarium at a dark and well-circulated place. The ozonizer is
connected to the mV computer (connection plug, 4) and the set point is adjusted as described,
e. g. at 400 mV. The air is produced by a membrane air pump, pressed through the ozonizer and
directed into the protein skimmer. Here, the small bubbles produce the foam and remove the
organics with the aid of ozone. If the desired ORP value in the aquarium is reached, the ozonizer is
switched off. Take care that all ozone is used in the protein skimmer and no residual ozone escapes
into the air or water. It can be detected by its strong smell.
9. Electrode
The Aqua Medic electrode is specifically designed to determine the redox-potential in fluid based
solubles. It can be used in the chemical industry, medical areas and in research labaratories.
9.1. Tec nical Data
Measurement range: 1,000 - + 1,000 mV
Sample temperature: 5 - 60° C, short-term
Connection: BNC-plug
Material: Plastic shaft, Polysulfone, platinum tip
9.2. Measurement/Maintenance
- During the measurement, the platinum tip must be continuously submerged in the solution.
- A new probe or one which has been dry for a longer period must lay in water for at least 24
hours.
10. Failures
-The unit indicates false values --> clean the probe.
-The redox-potential probes have a limited lifespan (1 - 3 years).
