How do you change the pH probe?

Replacing an ICO sensor is a simple procedure that extends the device’s lifespan without having to replace the entire unit. First, remove the ICO from the water, dry it thoroughly, then unscrew the lower section to access the sensors. Using the tool provided, the worn sensor is removed by unlocking it.

Insert and secure the new probe correctly, checking that it is properly aligned.

Once the replacement has been carried out, the device must be placed back in the water for several hours to resume taking measurements. Finally, it is important to register the new sensor in the app in order to reset the settings and ensure it works properly.

What is a pH probe kit?

The pH probe kit consists of a pH probe, a calibration stand, two buffer solutions (pH 4 and pH 7) and a KCl storage solution.

There is no need to calibrate a new pH sensor, as calibration is used to correct measurement drift caused by wear and tear.

The pH sensor on your ICO measures the pH level of the water in your swimming pool or spa. This essential component helps you monitor water quality.

If the pH probe is not properly maintained and calibrated regularly, readings may drift over time and become less reliable. This can lead to the incorrect use of treatment products (overdosing or underdosing) and affect water quality as well as your swimming experience.

To maintain its performance and extend its service life, it is recommended that you clean and calibrate the pH probe regularly. When you are not using your ICO, it is advisable to store it in a room at room temperature (15–25°C), with the black caps fitted to the probes, which contain small sponges soaked in storage solution

Calibrate the pH probe

Advice section for calibration:  

Carry out the calibration in a room at room temperature (the recommended temperature is 25°C).

Place the ICO next to your smartphone.

Go to the app / remote control / pH probe calibration

If you wish to calibrate the pH and ORP probes, start by calibrating the pH probe and finish by calibrating the ORP probe

Rinse the probes and the calibration stand thoroughly between solutions. Dry them carefully with a soft cloth

Steps for calibration: The app guides you step by step 

Turn on the ICO and connect it via Bluetooth. Rinse the probes avec l’eau du robinet et séchez-les avec un chiffon d’eau.

Pour the first pH 4 solution into the calibration cell. Place the ICO inside it. The pH 4 measurement is taken.

Rinse and dry the base and probes of your ICO with a soft cloth.

Repeat the same procedure with the pH 7 solution.

We recommend that you store the pH 4 and pH 7 solutions in two separate containers until the calibration has been validated, in case you need to recalibrate the instrument. 

This video tutorial vous explains why and how to calibrate the sensors on your ICO.

FAQ

How do you install a new pH probe?

Replacing a pH probe couldn't be simpler: using the removal tool supplied with the ICO, it's easy to unclip the old probe and clip the new one back on.

Each sensor has a specific colour to help identify them when they need replacing

The twist-and-lock system allows the probe to be turned a quarter turn into the designated slot.

The twist-and-lock system allows the probe to be turned a quarter turn into the designated slot.

Insert the new probe and turn it a quarter turn to lock it in place

Check that the probes are correctly positioned: the markings on the two notches (one on the device, the other on the probe) must be aligned.

Does the new pH probe need to be calibrated?

Calibration is used to compensate for measurement drift caused by wear and tear; therefore, it is not necessary to calibrate a new sensor. However, if you wish to ensure the accuracy of the measurement, you can carry out a calibration

Subsequently:

For seasonal use: it is recommended that you calibrate the system when you start up the pool again.

For annual use: calibration every six months is recommended.

Why does the pH electrode need to be stored in a KCl solution? 

The reference electrodes (sensor bulbs) of the pH/ORP probes on ICO-connected water analysers must always be kept moist.  They must be stored as follows: immersed in a storage solution (KCl solution) using the sponges, and protected with the black caps (sponges and black caps supplied with the product). 

Find out more about overwintering your ICO.

What is the life span of the probes?

Under normal use, the sensors are designed to last for several years. Depending on the conditions of use and winter storage, the service life is 2 to 4 years for ORP and pH sensors, and 5 to 6 years for the TDS sensor.
