LaMotte TC-3000 Tri-Meter - Manual (Page 55)

Calibration Procedure
The meter should be calibrated with platinum cobalt color standards. For the most
accurate results, a user calibration should be performed with LaMotte Color
Standards. The calibration should be done with a distilled or deionized water blank
and one color standard of known concentration. The concentration of the calibration
standard should be similar to the expected concentration of samples that will be
tested.
