I am using an SG6 to make my EIS. I have the dial turned almost all the way to maximum, but just under full stop.
When I am fininshed with a batch, I let it sit for a day, then measure the conductivity of the solution. It is comming in at about 14 uS. I use white HDPE bottles for storage and opened one up and noticed that after a month there was a little silver on the bottom of the bottle. Another bottle done at the same time has no fall out. The weird thing is that the conductivity is now showing about 15 uS. I thought the conductivity was supposed to drop a little during storage? And, yes the meter is in calibration. Along the same line, if I let the SG6 shut off and clean off the electrodes and let the solution sit for half a day, I find that it wants to generate more when I turn it back on. After doing this a couple of times I end up with some sediment at the bottom of the jar. My current practice is to decant the EIS out of the jar leaving the sediment behind. I then wash the sediment out of the jar and get it ready for the next batch. Is there any problems with this, or is it OK just to leave the sediment in the jar and let it age like that?
