    AB23PH Bench pH Meter EN-9 4. OPERATION Standard procedure of pH measurement is as follows: pH electrode preparation Buffer preparation and pH electrode calibration Sample preparation pH measurement Record measurement results or print Rinse the pH electrode and properly store pH electrode preparation: pH electrode should be rinsed with pure water before and after using.
  • Page 12: Perform 1-Point Calibration

    Offset: the mV value when pH value is 7.00. (Theoretical value is 0 mV); 4.1.2 Perform 1-point calibration When performing calibration, Ohaus recommends using Auto End Point Mode. After powering the meter on, be sure the top of the screen shows to ensure the meter is in Auto End point Mode.
  • Page 13: Perform 2-Point Calibration

    The screen will display the calibration point pH value (e.g. 7.00) with the temperature. The calibrated buffer value in the buffer group will be marked The 1-point calibration is finished. There are now 3 options (OHAUS recommends conducting at least a 2 point calibration).
