  • Page 33 Start Up 7.3.1.1 Calibrating the pH sensor To ensure a high level of measuring accuracy, adjust the pH sensor at set time intervals. This calibration interval seriously depends on the application of the pH sensor and on the required measurement accuracy and reproducibility. The calibration interval can vary between daily and every few months.
  • Page 34 Start Up Selecting the calibration process Select the calibration process prior to initial calibration. This selec‐ tion is saved until you select a new process. 2-point calibration: This is the recommended calibration process because it evaluates the sensor characteristic data: asymmetric potential, slope and response speed.
