1-point calibration 6.1.1 The 1-point calibration must be selected in the basic settings. 6.1.2 Rinse the electrode with distilled water. Press the "CAL" key. Depending on the setting, the display shows "pH 7.00/CAL1" or "pH 6.86/CAL1". 6.1.3 Immerse the electrode in the pH 7.00 (or pH 6.86) buffer solution with the end of the electrode completely immersed in the calibration solution.
2-point calibration 6.2.1 The 2-point calibration must be selected in the basic settings. 6.2.2. Carry out the calibration of the first calibration point as described under 6.1.2. … 6.1.4. The display shows "CAL 2". 6.2.3 Rinse the electrode with distilled water. Immerse the electrode in the pH 4.01 or pH 10.01 (pH 9.18) buffer solution with the end of the electrode completely immersed in the...
3-point calibration 6.3.1 The 3-point calibration must be selected in the basic settings. 6.3.2. Carry out the calibration of the first calibration point as described under 6.1.2. … 6.1.4. The display shows "pH 4.01" and "CAL 2". 6.3.3 Rinse the electrode with distilled water Immerse the electrode in the pH 4.01 buffer solution with the end of the electrode completely immersed in the calibration solution.
6.3.7. press the "ENTER" key. The meter starts the calibration. 6.3.8 After the measured value has stabilised, the display shows the slope of the electrode in % and then displays "End". The 3-point calibration is completed. Press the "MEAS" key to return to measuring mode even during calibration. Temperature calibration When deviating temperature values are displayed, you can adjust them in the corresponding menu item.
pH measurement Check the electrode as described in chapter 5.3 and switch on the meter, see chapter 5.4. Rinse the electrode with distilled water. Immerse the electrode in the medium with the end of the electrode completely immersed in the medium.
