NaCl CALIBRATION

NaCl calibration is a one-point procedure at 100.0% NaCl. Use the HI 7037L

calibration solution (sea water solution) as a 100% NaCl standard solution.

Rinse the probe with some of the calibration solution or

deionized water. Immerse the probe into HI 7037L solution.

The sleeve holes must be completely submerged. Tap the

probe repeatedly to remove any air bubbles that may be

trapped inside the sleeve.

To enter NaCl calibration select the NaCl range and

press CAL.

The “BUF” and “CAL” tags are displayed. The primary LCD will display the

NaCl reading in percentage. The secondary LCD will display “100”. The “ ”

and “~” tags will blink.

When the reading is stable, the “READY” tag will be displayed and “CFM” tag

starts blinking on the LCD, asking for confirmation.

Press CFM to confirm calibration.

The instrument stores the calibration value and returns to

measurement mode.
Note:

If the reading is too far from the expected value, “WRONG” “ ”

tags will blink. Calibration cannot be confirmed.

If the temperature of the buffer is out of 0.0 – 60.0 ºC temperature

interval, the “WRONG” and “ºC” tags will be displayed blinking.

If a new EC calibration is performed, NaCl calibration is auto-

matically cleared. Thus, a new NaCl calibration is required.
