  • Page 9: Precision & Accuracy

    5.3. PRECISION & ACCURACY Precision is how closely repeated measurements are to one another. Precision is usually expressed as standard deviation (SD). Accuracy is defined as the closeness of a test result to the true value. Although good precision suggests good accuracy, precise results can be inaccurate. The figure explains these definitions.

    6. GENERAL OPERATIONS 6.1. METER VALIDATION: CAL CHECK & CALIBRATION Validation of the HI97750 involves verifying the concentration of the certified CAL Check standards. The CAL Check screen guides the user step-by-step through the validation process and user calibration (if necessary).
  • Page 12 • “OUT OF SPECIFICATION“: A user calibration is not allowed, the measured value is outside of the tolerance window. Check the certified value, expiration date and clean the outside of the cuvette. Repeat the CAL Check procedure. If this error continues contact your nearest Hanna Instruments Customer Service Center.

  • Page 20: Cuvette Preparation

    7.3. CUVETTE PREPARATION Proper mixing is very important for reproducibility of the measurements. The proper mixing technique for each method is listed in the method procedure. (a) Invert the cuvette a couple of times or for a specified time: hold the cuvette in the vertical position.
  • Page 21 Whenever the cuvette is placed into the measurement holder, it must be dry outside and free of fingerprints, oil or dirt. Wipe it thoroughly with HI731318 microfiber cleaning cloth prior to insertion. Shaking the cuvette can generate bubbles in the sample, causing higher readings. To obtain accurate measurements, remove such bubbles by swirling or by gently tapping the cuvette.
