5.6 pH Calibration
The manufacturer offers one and two point automatic and manual calibrations for pH. An
automatic calibration identifies the buffer table corresponding to the chosen buffer and
automatically calibrates the probe after it stabilizes. A manual calibration is performed by
placing the pH sensor in any buffer or sample with a known value and then entering that
known value into the controller.
The value of the sample used in the manual calibration may be determined by laboratory
analysis or comparison reading.
