The electrode cannotfunction properly under these conditions. These bubbles can be removed by "shaking down" theelectrode as you would do with a glass thermometer.If the bulb and/or junction are dry, soak the electrode in HI70300 Storage Solution for at least onehour.For refillable electrodes:If the filling solution (electrolyte) is more than 2½ cm (1”) below the fill hole add HI7082 orHI8082 3.5M KCl Electrolyte Solution for double junction electrodes.*Not present in gel electrodes.
