PUMP CALIBRATION PROCEDURE

The calibration of the pump must be performed each time the pump tube, the reagent bottle or
the pH electrode is changed. It is recommended to perform the pump calibration before each set
of measurements.
Verify: The electrode has been calibrated in 8.30 pH buffer.
• Sample preparation: Fill a beaker up to the 50 mL mark

with HI 84429-55 Standard. Place the stir bar into the
beaker and then place the beaker in the appropiate place on
the instrument top.

• Place the electrode holder on the top of the beaker and secure

it by turning clockwise.

• Immerse the pH, reference and the temperature electrodes

approximatively 2 cm (0.8”) into the sample to be tested
paying attention not to touch the stir bar.

• Insert the dosing tip in the appropriate holder place. Do not

immerse tip into solution.
