pH Calibration
This meter has been manufactured for use with a pH electrode that
generates 0mV at pH7.00 (177.4mV at pH4). If your pH electrode does not
meet stated specications or is being used for the rst time, calibration
procedures are necessary. Calibration also ensures accurate
measurements. It is always recommended to carry out a two point
calibration for better accuracy.
Required Equipment for Calibration
1. pH Electrode (See Accessories and Replacement Parts)
2.
pH Buffer Solutions (See Accessories and Replacement Parts)
Calibration Procedure
1. Prepare buffer solutions for calibration. It is recommended to start
with calibration buffer pH 7.00 pH, followed by either pH 4.00 or
the pH 4.00 and pH 7.00 buffer solutions when measurements are
be on the higher side of the pH scale.
2. Connect the optional pH electrode into the pH input jack
3. Turn the meter on by pressing the POWER button.
continued...
REED Instruments
17
4. Manually adjust the temperature compensation value to make it
same as the temperature value of the pH buffer solution. Refer to the
Setup Mode section of this manual for instructions. For automatic
temperature compensation, plug in the optional ATC probe.
5. Rinse the electrode with distilled water to remove any residual solution.
6. Place the electrode into the pH 7.00 buffer solution, so that the tip of
the electrode and junction are fully immersed in the buffer solution,
and stir at a moderate, uniform rate. If using an ATC probe, both
probes should be placed into the solution together.
7. When calibration has stabilized, a pH value will appear at the top of
the display.
8. Press and hold both the REC and HOLD buttons until the screen
of the screen and release to enter the calibration mode.
9. Press the and buttons to scroll to pH 7.00 or whichever screen
matches your buffer solution.
10. Press the Enter button to save your selection.
11. Repeat steps 5 through 10 for the pH 4.00 and pH 10.00 buffer solutions.
Clearing pH Calibration Data
1. While under normal, press and hold both the REC and HOLD
calibration mode.
2. Press the and buttons
3. Press the ENTER button to conrm and erase all calibration data.
4. The display will continuously blink while the calibration data is
being erased.
5. When complete, the meter will resume normal operation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
I cannot turn off my meter, do you know why?
Often times, the meter cannot be turned off because it is in recording
REC button before attempting to turn the meter off.
Can I set an alarm to go off at a specific temperature?
The meter does not have an alarm function.
