Calibration and Bias Correction (Compensation)
Note: The product has been calibrated before delivery, and can be used
directly upon receipt. It is recommended to calibrate once every 6 months.
If the probe is dirty or has a lot of algae on it after a period of use,
please soak it overnight with a certain proportion of diluted disinfectant
before calibrating.
Enter the setting interface by pressing the middle button, and click the left
button to access the first option “pH-set”. Continue to click the left button
to the first option “pH-CAL-2”, and the device will enter the third interface
(4.01 calibration interface)
Putting the probe into the calibration solution 4.01, the measured value
indicates the current device value.
Then, shake a few times and allow the solution to fully contact the probe for
180 seconds, then press the left button to confirm.
Put the probe in neutral water or pure water once it jumps to the fourth
interface (6.86 calibration interface), then take it out and wipe the
remaining liquid off.
Put the probe into ph6.86 calibration solution and let it stand for 180
seconds (solution and probe are fully in contact). Press the left button to
confirm, then remove the probe from the solution and place it in neutral water
or pure water. Then dry the remaining liquid on the probe.
Enter the setting interface by pressing the middle button, and click the left
button to access the first option “pH-set”. Continue to click the middle
button to the second option “pH-CAL-3”, and then click the left button to
confirm, the device will enter the third interface (4.01 calibration
interface).

Put the probe into ph6.86 calibration solution and let it stand for 180
seconds (solution and probe are fully in contact). Press the left button to
confirm, then put the probe in neutral water or pure water once it jumps to
the fifth interface (9.18 calibration interface). Then take it out and wipe
the remaining liquid off.
Next, put the probe into ph9.18 calibration solution and let it stand for 180
seconds (solution and probe are fully in contact). Press the left button to
confirm, then put the probe in neutral water or pure water once the progress
is finished. Then take it out and wipe the remaining liquid off.
Bias correction can be done directly on the monitor if it shows a difference
from other pH testing products while other pH testing results are accurate
during comparative use.
Enter the setting interface by pressing the middle button, and click the left
button to access the first option “pH-set”. Continue to click the middle
button to the option “PH-Adj”, and then click the left button to confirm.
Thus, the device will enter the third interface (4.01 calibration interface),
and the compensation value is 0 by default.
The measured value represents the value displayed by the device in the test
solution. You can directly press the left or right button “-/ +” to adjust it,
and then press the middle button “OK” to save it.
Enter the setting interface by pressing the middle button, and click the
middle button to the second option “EC-set” to access the second interface.
