Operation

6.

Analyze the sample immediately after taking the sample as its
ammonium content can change quickly.

After determining the laboratory reference values for potassium and
ammonium, proceed as follows:

7.

Select

SENSOR SETUP>NH4D SC>CALIBRATE>

SET NH4–N CONC

.

8.

Enter the laboratory reference value for NH4–N and press

ENTER

to confirm.

9.

Select

SENSOR SETUP>NH4D SC>CALIBRATE>

SET K+ CONC

.

10. Enter the laboratory reference value for potassium and press

ENTER

to confirm.

Confirmation of the entered laboratory value activates the
matrix correction.

4.6.3.3 MATX2 correction (2nd point matrix correction)

Proceed as follows to perform the MATX2:

1.

Select

SENSOR SETUP>NH4D SC>CALIBRATE>CAL CONFIG

.

2.

Select

MATX2

in the selection window and press

ENTER

.

3.

Select

CONC MEAS 1

.

The currently measured ammonium and potassium values are
displayed. The drift indicates whether the measured value is stable.

4.

Wait until the measured value is stable (Drift should be
< 0,03 mg/l) and press

ENTER

to confirm. The value for

ammonium is saved.

5.

Immediately after measuring, take a water sample for
laboratory analysis from as close to the sensor as possible.

6.

Analyze the sample immediately after taking the sample as its
ammonium content can change quickly.

After determining the laboratory reference value, proceed as
follows:

7.

Select

SENSOR SETUP>NH4D SC>CALIBRATE>

SET NH4–N CONC

.

8.

Enter the laboratory value (reference value) for NH

4

–N and

press

ENTER

to confirm.

9.

Select

and repeat the sequence from Point 4 to

8 for the second value after a concentration change of at least
half a decade.
