Page 12: Ph Probe Setup, Maintenance And Preparation
Kore 7th Manual / kHLab Edition 3. pH Probe Setup, Maintenance and Preparation Use only dedicated Pacific Sun pH probes for these calibrations. If you use probes from another manufacturer, Pacific Sun cannot guarantee the accuracy that measured results will match actual conditions. The typical lifespan for a pH probe in kHLab is about 16-18 months, but this time can be shortened in the case of long-term exposure to seawater. -
Page 13: Initial Ph Probe Preparation - First Use After Purchase
Kore 7th Manual / kHLab Edition 3.1. Initial pH Probe Preparation - First Use After Purchase Important! Never expose pH probe to the air for more than 3-4 minutes. The pH probe should be always in the water or in it's transport protection container. -
Page 14: Reagent Solution Preparation
Kore 7th Manual / kHLab Edition 4. Reagent Solution Preparation This device preparation step is very important. If the reagent dilution ratio is not correct, the tested results may differ from the actual alkalinity levels. To obtain accurate results, we strongly suggest using the digital scale for reagent dilution. -
