8. Technical Information
8.3 Temperature Compensation
In equation 8.3, 2.3026RT/F represents the emf per pH unit and varies depending on
temperature.

Table 8.1 presents the relationship between the temperature and the emf per pH unit, and
the relationship between the pH and the emf at each temperature is shown in Figure 8.4.
Measurement without temperature compensation will result in measured pH values
including errors as shown in Table 8.2.
The PH71 meter automatically modifies the calibration line according to the temperature
measured by the temperature element incorporated in an electrode (except needle type
and test tube size pH sensors).
