Calibrating the Meter
The sens
ion
8 Dissolved Oxygen meter must be calibrated prior
to use. Prior to calibration, the probe must be prepared and
stabilized. For measurements below 1 mg/L DO, the probe should
be zeroed prior to calibration. See Section 3.3.3 Zeroing the
Probe.
The calibration may be performed in three ways:
•
Calibration may be performed in a water saturated air
environment with a known barometric pressure and/or
altitude. See Section 3.3.4 Calibration in Water Saturated
Air.
OR
•
Calibration may be performed using a water sample that has a
known dissolved oxygen concentration in mg/L. The sample
concentration is determined by another technique such as a
Winkler titration. See Section 3.3.5 Calibration to a Known
Dissolved Oxygen Concentration.
OR
•
Calibration may be performed by setting a water sample to
100% saturation. See Section 3.3.6 Calibrating a Sample to
Read 100% Saturation.
