5.6.1 SENTRON buffer set
The default buffer set for which the meter is configured is the SENTRON buffer set.
The Sentron buffer set consists of a set of five NIST-traceable buffers with a pH of 2.00, 4.00, 7.00,
10.00 and 12.00 at 25°C. The table containing the temperature dependence of the buffer set is
presented in Table 1 below.

Table 1: SENTRON Buffer set
Note that since the SENTRON buffer set is based on the NIST standard, they are available from other
manufacturers as well.
