pH 

Meter

pH electrodes need to be calibrated with pH standard buffer solution before a proper pH 
measurement can be made. Calibration is to display the correct pH value when meter receives 
the mV value signal from the pH electrode.  

Slope: the linear coefficient between mV and pH according to theoretical value (e.g.  -
59.16mV/pH @ 25°C which means 100% slope); 
Offset: the mV value when pH value is 7.00. (Theoretical value is 0 mV);

4.1.2 Performing 

1-point 

calibration 

When performing calibration, Ohaus recommends using Auto End Point Mode. After powering 
the meter on, be sure the top of the screen shows 

 to ensure the meter is in Auto End point

Mode.

Auto or Manual End point Mode:

o

Press and hold

 to change the End Point Mode

o

When in Manual Mode, to manually reach a pH measurement or calibration value,

you need to press button-

 when reading is stable and displays 

: then the

sample reading or calibration value freezes,  

 blinks 3 times and freezes on

the display.

o

When in Auto End Point Mode, the meter determines when the reading is stable
then displays and locks the reading or calibration value automatically, the reading

freezes and   blinks 3 times then disappears; 

  blinks 3 times and freezes on

the display.

o

Please note stability criterion: the signal of the sensor input may not change by

more than 0.1mV in 6 seconds.

Note:  With the 1-point calibration only the offset  is adjusted. If the sensor was previously 
calibrated with multi-point calibration the previously stored slope will remain. Otherwise theoretical 
100% slope (-59.16 mV / pH) will be used.
