6.2 Calibrate the turbidimeter with StablCal Standards
Calibrate the turbidimeter before it is used for the first time using the StablCal sealed vial standards
provided.
Calibrate the turbidimeter at least every 3 months or as specified by the regulating authority when
data is used for USEPA reporting.
The instrument is ready for calibration 60 minutes after start-up. Keep the instrument on 24 hours a
day if the instrument is used regularly.
Note: Unknown results may occur if standards other than the recommended calibration points are used. The
recommended calibration points (< 0.1, 20, 200, 1000 and 4000 NTU) provide the best calibration accuracy. Use of
standards other than StablCal, or user-prepared formazin, may result in less accurate calibrations. The
manufacturer cannot guarantee the performance of the instrument if calibrated with co-polymer
styrenedivinylbenzene beads or other suspensions.
