ORP measurement is a measurement of the oxidation-reduction potential of the electrode relative to the reference electrode, expressed in millivolts.

What does ORP measurement mean in practice?

The ORP electrode measures the potential relative to a reference electrode, and the result responds to all redox pairs present, not to a single oxidant.

When does it matter?

Values ​​from different pH, temperatures and electrode types should not be directly compared as a measure of disinfection.

Which solutions are related to it?

The electrode is kept clean, checked with a control solution and the ORP is interpreted together with the pH and disinfectant concentration.
