5-1. Calibration for pH measurement
To calibrate a pH sensor, two buffer
solutions with known pH values are
required. It is recommended that one
buffer solution has a value near to pH
7.00. Depending on the process value to
be measured, the second buffer solution
should be either acidic (below 7.00) or
alkaline (above 7.00). Normally, the IEC
buffers (4.01, 6.87 and 9.18) are used.
The following is a very general 2-point
calibration procedure.
1. Clean the sensor (deposits may be
removed using a 5% (approximate)
solution of HCl).
2. Rinse sensor thoroughly with clean
water.
3. Immerse the sensor in the first buffer
(6.87 pH is recommended).
4. Refer to appropriate Instrument
Instruction Manual for Calibration
procedures (Auto; Manual; Sample, etc.),
5. Rinse sensor thoroughly with clean water.
6. Immerse the sensor in the second buffer
(4.01 or 9.18 recommended).
7. Repeat Step 4.
During calibration the temperature
compensation should be active. The
instrument automatically compensates for
the sensitivity change of the pH sensor at
different temperatures. After the calibration
is complete replace or re-install the sensor
into the process.
5-2. Calibration of ORP
and rH measurements
For calibration of ORP and rH the
procedures for MANUAL CALIBRATION
can be used as described in the instruction
manual of the analyser. The commonly
used standards for ORP and rH calibration
are made from Chinhydron (Quinhydrone)
powder dissolved in pH buffer solutions.
(1 gram/200 ml) The ORP value is a function
of the Reference cell of the measurement
and the pH value of the buffer solution.
