(50%) solution, 1425 mg/L and one liter of deionized water (0%). Start the calibration in the deionized water in
the calibration cup and accept 0.00 mg/L when prompted, then put the sensor into the 1425 mg/L solution and
enter 1425 mg/L when prompted and finally into the 2850 mg/L solution and enter 2850 mg/L. Accept the
calibration and put the sensor back into the process.

The TRITON® TR6 turbidity sensors use a three point AUTO Cal sequence. Cal 1 is a zero point calibration, Cal 2 is
a 50% of the measured range calibration and Cal 3 is a 100% of range calibration.

TANDARDIZE
Standardize is an online/in process Zero Point Calibration Only. To change a non-zero value to a new value use
the Slope feature in the Manual Cal section. (see below) Standardize is used to zero out the reflectance effects
generated by the installation. The sensor will generate a mV signal in a zero NTU environment and this will be
different than the zero point value recorded in the AUTO Cal. Standardize shifts the calibration curve to the new
zero value. Perform a Standardize calibration with the sensor installed in the process line or tank and immersed
in clear water only.
