Testing ORP probes with Iodine

Something I picked up on from ENC.

Pick up a std 2 ounce bottle of Tincture of Iodine (USP Grade) and dilute it with 473 mL of RO/DI water. After thoroughly mixed, place enough in a small container to check the probe. It should read between +440 and +455 mV. If it does not you have a probe issue, either dirty or it needs to be replaced.

An explosion can be defined as a loud noise, accompanied by the sudden going away of things, from a place where they use to be.
