How often should continuous pH probes be cleaned and with which
solutions? How long do you leave the probe in the cleaning solution?
Should you place the probe in a storage solution after?

How about refillable probes and how often do they need refilling?

How do you calibrate yours?

PH 4.0 calibration solution is acidic so I simply leave my Hanna meter
sitting in that solution for an hour or so after I calibrate. My first meter
stopped calibrating and the cause was a dirty probe likely from a green
water outbreak I was having at the time. Rinsing in tap water did not clean
the probe sufficient enough. When I talked to a tech guy at Hanna he
recommended using acid or leaving it in the solution.
