Basics
The redox-potential or oxydation/reduction potential (ORP) is an electrical value which is a
parameter for the oxydation and reduction processes in the aquarium.
The redox-potential is of special interest in:
-
Assessing the quality of salt water in aquaria. The ideal range is between 300 mV and 400 mV.
If needed, the range can be increased by injecting Ozone into the protein skimmer. The higher
the value, the higher the percentage of oxydation, the „cleaner" the water is.
-
The redox-potential is used in denitrifying filters to check the acidity. The ideal values are
between -300 mV and -100 mV.
-
In swimming pools the redox-potential can be used for sterilization by regulating the amount of
chlorine added by maintaining +700 mV.
