CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
1.
Open the battery compartment lid (end with the lanyard loop). The
two white buttons are Increment (INC) and Decrement (DEC)
Calibration keys.
2. Rinse the electrode in deionized water and then rinse it in the
Calibration Standard (6004).
3. Place the electrode in a small container of the Calibration Standard.
The cap of the Tester may be used for this. Fill the cap half full. Make
sure the sensor is fully immersed.
4. Press ON/OFF to turn the meter on. Wait several minutes for the
display to stabilize.
5. Press the INC or DEC buttons to adjust the reading to match the
Calibration Standard value (3.0 ppt).
6. After 3 seconds without a button press the display will flash three
times and then show “ENT”, indicating that the meter has accepted
the calibration standard. The meter will then automatically return to
the measurement mode.
7. Replace the battery cap.
