Temperature Calibration

Temperature calibration need not be performed every time, unless the temperature

reading differs from that of an accurate thermometer. If temperature calibration is

performed, Conductivity/TDS/Salt calibration is mandatory.

Manual Calibration

In manual calibration, the tester allows 1-point calibration for each measuring range.

You can use customized calibration solutions with known conductivity/TDS values to

calibrate the tester. . The following table shows acceptable conductivity/TDS ranges of

calibration solutions for each measuring range. Make sure your calibration solutions

are within the given ranges.

Use fresh calibration solutions. Measure conductivity/TDS values of the solution with a

meter known to be accurate. Prepare each solution in two beakers - one for rinsing

and the other for calibration. Rinse the electrode in de-ionized water before

calibration.
