    SETTINGS AND CALIBRATION TEMPHION INSTRUCTIONS General Calibration Information IMPORTANT CALIBRATION NOTES! The TempHion must be calibrated before first use and periodically thereafter. It should also be calibrated if moving Data Files • Calibration can only be done when to a different sampling environment where readings will there is no data stored on the sensor.
  • Page 12: Ph Calibration

    Seametrics recommends a 2 point calibration that brackets the expected pH range of your site. Note: If your TempHion has been stored dry, a 4 hour to overnight soak in pH 4 buffer is needed to recondition the pH bulb.
  • Page 13: Redox/Orp Calibration

    Use a Redox/ORP meter that is calibrated to your desired Redox/ORP scale to obtain this value. Place both the TempHion and the reference meter into your sample (ideally the waters the TempHion will be installed in). Once readings have stabilized note the value on the reference meter.
  • Page 14: Ise-Bromide Calibration

    Seametrics recommends using a lab grade 100 mL flask for DI water and pipette for the NaBr solution. Place the TempHion in the standard and use it to stir the solution well. Allow a few minutes for temperature to equalize and readings to stabilize.

    TEMPHION INSTRUCTIONS Reading via SDI-12 SDI-12 commands always return values for all four TempHion channels – temperature, pH, ORP, and ISE channels. Most TempHions are configured either as temperature, pH, and ORP or just temperature and Bromide. You will need to disregard the readings for the channel(s) you do not have configured on your unit.
