STANDARD SOLUTIONS & BUFFERS

1. pH and ORP BUFFER SOLUTIONS

Your pH and/or ORP Monitor/controller has been factory certified

to meet certain specifications based on the appropriate Myron L

Company NIST traceable buffer solutions. These same solutions

are available to you.

NOTE: ORP ZERO is calibrated using 7pH buffer. SPAN may be

wet calibrated using any high quality ORP mV solution.

These same buffers may be used for calibration and

recertification of your Myron L or other handheld instruments.

a. pH Buffer Solutions

pH buffers are available in pH values of 4, 7 and 10. Myron L

Company buffer solutions are traceable to NIST certified pH

references and are color-coded for instant identification. They are

also mold inhibited and accurate to within ±0.01 pH units @ 25°C.

Order 4, 7 or 10 Buffer.

b. pH Sensor Storage Solution

Myron L Storage Solution prolongs the life of your pH or ORP

sensor. Sensor must be stored in Storage Solution. It is available

in 2oz bottles, quarts and gallons. Order SS2oz, SSQ or SSG.

2.

CONDUCTIVITY/TDS STANDARD SOLUTIONS

For your Conductivity/TDS Monitor/controllers. Your

Conductivity/TDS Monitor/controller requires the same care and

calibration as your pH and ORP Monitor/controller. With the

following Myron L Company NIST traceable standard solutions it

is possible for you to maintain the accuracy required in your

process.

These same standards may be used for calibration and

recertification of your Myron L or other handheld instrument.

DESCRIPTION

The Myron L Company manufactures three basic types of

conductivity/TDS standard solutions — KCl, NaCl and 442™. See

below.

Most Myron L standard solution bottles show three values

referenced at 25°C:

Conductivity in microsiemens/micromhos, while the ppm/TDS

equivalents are based on our 442 Natural Water™, and NaCl

standards. All standards are within ±1.0% of reference solutions.

a. Potassium Chloride (KCl)

The concentrations of these reference solutions are calculated

from data in the International Critical Tables, Vol. 6.

b. 442 Natural Water™

442 Natural Water Standard Solutions are based on the following

salt proportions: 40% sodium sulfate, 40% sodium bicarbonate,

and 20% sodium chloride which represent the three predominant

components “anions” in freshwater. This salt ratio has

conductivity characteristics approximating fresh natural waters

and was developed by the Myron L Company over three decades

ago. It is used around the world for measuring both conductivity

and TDS in drinking water, ground water, lakes, streams, etc.

c. Sodium Chloride (NaCl)

This is especially useful in sea water mix applications, as sodium

chloride is its major salt component. Most Myron L standard

solution labels show the ppm NaCl equivalent to the conductivity

and to ppm 442 values.
