Page 9: Calibration
Instruction Manual pH 5/6 & Ion 6 3. CALIBRATION 3.1 pH Calibration The meter is capable of calibrating up to 3 points using USA or NIST (nSt) pH buffer standards or 2 points with Low Ionic (Pb) pH buffer standard. All new calibration values will automatically override existing data. -
Page 10: Selection Of Ph Buffer Standards
Instruction Manual pH 5/6 & Ion 6 3.2 Selection of pH buffer standards You must set the meter to accept either USA, NIST (nSt) or Low Ionic (Pb) pH buffer standard values before calibration. The factory default is USA standard. If you wish to abort this operation press the CAL key at any sequence and the meter reverts to pH measurement mode. -

Instruction Manual pH 5/6 & Ion 6 3.3.1 Multi-point Ion Calibration 1. In case if you need to start calibration using 1.0 ppm standard solution, you can skip the 0.1 ppm calibration option (as mentioned * below). 2. For this instance let’s take 1.0 ppm calibration. To begin, pour a known 1.0 ppm standard solution into a clean container. - Page 16 Instruction Manual pH 5/6 & Ion 6 9. Press ENTER key to confirm 2 point calibration (e.g. 10.0 ppm) and the display will show the next calibration option, 100.0 ppm. To exit from 2-point calibration, press CAL key and the LCD shows “PXX mV”...
