Understanding ORP Measurement

What is ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential)?

ORP measures a solution's ability to act as an oxidizing or reducing agent:

• Positive mV Values - Indicate oxidizing conditions (ability to accept electrons)
• Negative mV Values - Indicate reducing conditions (ability to donate electrons)
• Practical Applications - ORP serves as an important water quality parameter in various industries
• Measurement Units - Always expressed in millivolts (mV)

Common ORP Target Values Lutron ORP-213 Digital ORP Meter

Application	Typical Target ORP Range	Significance
Swimming Pools	650-750 mV	Effective sanitization
Drinking Water	650-800 mV	Proper disinfection
Freshwater Aquariums	250-450 mV	Healthy aquatic environment
Wastewater Treatment	Varies by process stage	Process control indicator
Metal Plating Baths	Application specific	Solution quality control
