Remove the protective cap from the
pH electrode and immerse it into the
selected buffer solution (e.g. pH 7.01)
with the Potential Matching Pin and
temperature probe, then stir gently.
Note The electrode should be submerged ap-
proximately 4 cm (1½") in the solution.
The temperature probe should be located
as close as possible to the pH electrode.
Note When it is not possible to immerse the Potential Matching Pin
together with the pH electrode in the solution, disable the
differential input by connecting the Connection for Potential
Matching Pin (#9 page 7) with the Connection for Electrode
Reference (#8 on page 7) with a jumper wire.
Only when the reading is stable the
probe indicator " " will stop flashing
(after about 30 seconds) and the
"CFM" indicator will start blinking.
Press CFM to confirm the calibration; if the reading is close to
the selected buffer (±1.5 pH), the meter stores the reading
and the secondary LCD will display the expected second buffer
value. Offset and slope calculation is made at the end by
pressing CAL to exit.
If the reading is not close to the selected
buffer, "WRONG
BUF
" will blink.
If CAL is pressed, the calibration pro-
cess ends by memorizing a new offset
value. The new offset value is stored
and a default value of 57.5 mV per
pH unit at 25°C is assigned as the
new slope value.
For best accuracy however, it is recommended that a two-
point calibration is performed.
