4.2 Millivolt (mV) Offset Adjustment
Oxidization Reduction Potential (ORP or Redox) is not a precise
measurement, but is useful as a relative indicator. As such, mV offset
adjustment is not meant to enhance accuracy, but rather to make
readings comparable to a reference. Commercial ORP solutions are
often used as a check s

calibration standard in which adjustments

5. CONDUCTIVITY AND TDS CALIBRATION
5.1 Automatic or Manual Calibration
The PC 700 is capable of automatic or manual calibration for
conductivity, and manual calibration for TDS.
In the automatic calibration mode, the meter will automatically se
one of (4) conductivity calibration standard values depending on the
range and normalization temperature being used (TABLE 1). lect
