ConCal

Two-point

calibration

For this procedure, use two buffer solutions:

z pH 7.0 ± 0.5
z any other buffer solution

Note
Skip the steps 2 and 9 if you use a pH electrode with a temperature probe or
the temperature probe of a conductivity measuring cell.

Note
At this point, the ConCal calibration can be broken off with . This corre-
sponds to a single-point calibration. When doing so, the instrument uses
the Nernst slope (-59,2 mV/pH at 25 °C) and the fixed asymmetry of the elec-
trode.

1

Press the key repeatedly until the ASY display and the
Cal function display appears. The sensor symbol displays the
evaluation of the last calibration (or no sensor symbol in the de-
livery state or after the measurement parameter has been re-
set).

2

If required, enter the temperature of the first buffer solution with
<

> <> while keeping the key depressed.

3

Immerse the pH electrode in the first buffer solution (pH 7.0 ±
0.5 in two-point calibration).

4

Press the key.
The measured pH value appears on the display.

5

Set the measured value to the nominal pH value of the buffer
solution (at the current temperature) with <

> <>.

6

When the measured value is stable, press the
key. The value of the asymmetry appears.

7

Press the key. SLO appears.
