ORP Meter is a tool commonly used to measure oxidation-reduction potential and the concentration of the chemical. To oxidize, chemicals will react to oxygen. ORP meter will measure the potential of the reaction. ORP meter is used regularly in industry or business sectors spa and swimming pool. By using ORP meter we can measure the concentration of free chlorine and pH in the pool quickly and accurately. For the company public pool, the health and safety of swimmers is very important. Therefore, the use of ORP meter and the use of water pH measuring device is essential.
At an ORP (Oxidation-Reduction Potential) meter usually consists of two electrodes (electrical charge between two poles to measure the resistance in the water). One electrode is generally made of silver and surrounded by an electrolyte solution. In this section will produce a voltage consistent. Thus, it will provide a reference to the other probe to be compared. One of the other electrode, made of platinum, which will measure the voltage in the pond.
By using ORP meter we can not know how much chlorine content or pH or acidity level in the water. However ORP meter tells how effective chlorine when the air-oxidation of the organic materials and sanitary pool. So that not only measure the quantity of chlorine.
