3)
Amp meter should read 12mA; if not, calibration is necessary;
4)
Locate “Offset adjustment” trimmer; Using a fine screwdriver,
slowly turn trimmer till Amp meter reads 12mA;
5)
For greater accuracy, adjust slope with pH 4 or 10;
6)
Rinse probe in de-ionised water and immerse in either pH 4.01 or pH
10.01 buffer solution;
7)
In pH 4.01, the output is 8.54mA;
8)
In pH 10.01, the output is 15.44mA;
9)
Using a fine screwdriver, slowly turn trimmer, marked ‘slope’, till Amp
meter reads correct mA value with respective buffer solutions.
10) Remember to disconnect Amp meter and close cover.
NOTE: For other buffer values, expected current output is based on:
mA = {(16/14) x buffer pH value} + 4mA

ORP Transmitter Calibration
1)
Prepare fresh Standard solutions, such as 255mV, 470mV.
2)
Short ORP inputs and observe Amp meter display;
3)
Amp meter should read 4mA; if not, calibration is necessary;
4)
Locate “Offset adjustment” trimmer; Using a fine screwdriver,
slowly turn trimmer till Amp meter reads 4mA;
5)
For greater accuracy, adjust the slope with Standard calibrating
solutions;
6)
Rinse probe in de-ionised water and immerse in standard solution;
7)
In 255mV solution, the output is 8.08mA;
8)
In 470mV solution, the output is 11.52mA;
9)
Using a fine screwdriver, slowly turn trimmer, marked ‘slope’, till Amp
meter reads correct mA value with respective Standard solutions.
10) Remember to disconnect Amp meter and close cover.
NOTE: For other Standard values, expected current output is based on:
mA = {(16/1000) x ORP value of Standard solution} + 4mA
