Note
While the zero point (ASY) is being displayed, you can change the unit
of the zero point with

<

▲><▼>.

While the slope (SLO) is being displayed, you can change the unit of
the slope with

<

▲><▼>.

The % display refers to the Nernst slope of 59.2 mV/pH at 25° C
(100 x determined slope/Nernst slope).

The unit of zero point and slope can also be changed permanently in
the measurement settings (see section 4.5.2).

4.3.3

Conventional calibration (ConCal)

Single-point calibration

Use any buffer solution for this rapid method.
The calibration will be the more exact the nearer the pH value of the
buffer solution is to that of the test sample.

Two-point calibration

Use two buffer solutions for this procedure:

z pH 7.0 ± 0.5

z any other buffer solution

Note
The steps 2 and 9 are not necessary if you use a pH combination
electrode with a temperature sensor.

Press the key.
The AR display indicator flashes.
The electrode voltage (mV) or the nominal value of the buffer
(setting: see section 4.5.2) is displayed. The asymmetry is
displayed as soon as a stable value is recognized.

13

Press the key.
The value of the slope (mV/pH) appears on the display.

Press the key repeatedly until the ASY display indicator
and the ConCal function indicator appear.
