Ph Calibration - Hanna Instruments HI 9023C Instruction Manual

Note: The electrode should be submerged
approximately 4 cm (1½") into the
solution with the temperature probe
located as close to it as possible.

alternatively. If the reading is close to the selected buffer, the
slope and the offset are calibrated. The values will be stored in
memory and the meter will return to the operating mode.
Note: The meter will automatically skip the buffer that was used
for the first calibration to avoid erroneous calibration. At
least 1 full pH unit is required between the two buffers used
for the offset and slope calibration. As a result, once
calibrated at either pH 6.86 or 7.01, the microprocessor will
automatically ignore the other one for the second point
calibration. It will do likewise for pH 9.18 and 10.01
Note: During calibration, the secondary LCD displays the selected
buffer value. With HI 9025C, press the RANGE key to display
the buffer temperature during calibration.

pH Calibration

All three meters provide for manual pH cali-
bration. As a result, you can perform
one or two point calibration at a buffer
of your choice. The instructions below
explain a typical calibration procedure at
pH 7 and then 4 or 10.
• Remove the protective cap from the elec-
trode, rinse it with some pH 7.01 solution, then dip in pH
7.01 buffer. Stir briefly and wait for one minute for the
reading to stabilize.
Note: The electrode should be submerged approximately 4 cm
