4.2. Preparing the Meter for Calibration
The pH/conductivity/temperature probe included with this meter is designed for use with this
meter only. Do not substitute other types of probes or electrodes. For a replacement probe,
see the “Accessories” section, page 21.
Be sure to remove the protective cap of the pH probe before calibration or
measurement. Always immerse the probe beyond the electrode band.
Immerse the probe in tap water for 10 minutes before calibrating or taking readings to hydrate
the pH electrode surface and minimise drift.
Rinse your probe in DI water after use. Storage in electrode storage solution is ideal.
Alternatively, pH 4.0 or 7.0 calibration standards can be used for short term storage. Do not
reuse buffer solutions after calibration. Contaminants in the solution can affect the calibration,
and eventually the accuracy of the measurements.
Always immerse the
electrode beyond this band
