It is possible to change the number of times for moving average, interval time, and the number of measurement times.
5 Calibration Calibration Be sure to perform calibration before measurement. There are two calibration methods. Manual Cal.: A method to directly enter the calibration value (page 28) Real-time calibration: A method to perform real-time calibration during measurement (page 29) To calibrate in real time during measurement, perform a two-point calibration: zero and span calibration.

13 Document 13.1 Measuring principle 13 Document 13.1 Measuring principle The measuring principle is a voltammetry method using a diamond electrode (BDD (Boron- Doped Diamond) electrode) as the working electrode. Residual chlorine is generally classified into free residual chlorine and combined chlorine, as shown in the figure below, and free chlorine is further classified into chlorine (gas), hypochlor- ous acid (HClO), and hypochlorite ion (ClO ).
Page 96
13 Document 13 Document 13 Document 13.1 Measuring principle The ratio of hypochlorous acid and hypochlorite ion changes depending on the pH of the solution as shown in the figure below. Hypochlorous acid is said to have several tens of times high sterilization power than hypochlorite acid ion.
