Abstract

A method of measuring impedance of a pH electrode is provided. A test current is applied to the pH electrode for a time duration that is less than 50 percent of a time constant that is associated with electrical characteristics of the pH electrode. A voltage response of the pH electrode is measured when the test current is applied to the pH electrode. An impedance of the pH electrode is calculated as a function of the voltage response.
