ORP Meters

ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential) is a key indicator of a water system’s capacity to gain or lose electrons, reflecting its overall oxidative state. Unlike pH, which measures acidity and alkalinity, ORP values are influenced by all oxidizing and reducing agents in the water.

In practical applications, ORP is used to assess a body of water’s ability to break down contaminants and organic matter. A high ORP value indicates a strong oxygen presence, signifying healthier water quality. ORP meters are essential for monitoring lakes, rivers, and other water systems to ensure their ability to manage waste and maintain ecological balance.
