The terms are interchangable in meaning: Redox = Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP) The term Redox is more commonly used for bioprocess applications in Europe and the U.S. The term ORP is more commonly used for industrial chemical process applications in the U.S. The redox potential of a media is related to the overall availability of electrons in the media, specifically the ratio of positive and negative ions in the solution. Note that redox measurements vary significantly with changing pH. How to Order a Redox Electrode (1) Choose Electrode Model. If the electrode needs to fit an existing cable, check the cable connector and note its color. If the cable connector is black and has an S8 connector, use the F-915 or F-935 Redox FermProbes. If the cable connector is red or orange and has a K9 connector, use the F-995 Redox FermProbe. (2) Choose Electrode Length. If you have already chosen a housing, select an electrode length with the same Class designation as the housing. The housing o
