    - After you have made the settings, the temperature and buffers entered are shown on the display. Quit the menu and start the calibration. 4.4.3 Setting ion concentration standards SenseLine Plus F470 pH/ORP/ION Meter allows you to calibrate using one of the following concentration units: 1. mmol/L 2.
  • Page 11: Sample Measurement

    Calibration / Sample measurement Note - To ensure accurate pH or ion concentration readings, you should perform a calibration regularly. - We recommend the use of a temperature sensor or an electrode with a built-in temperature probe. - For ion measurements, or some cases in pH measurements, you can use the MTC mode. You should then keep all buffers or standard solutions and sample solutions at the same set temperature.
