Turbidity calculation and calibration menu
Zero, Slope are adjusted based on a standard solution as a reference. (Equation 7.1)
If the turbidity measured by the instrument may differ from the one measured manually in a lab
due to the difference of properties of the water sample and of turbidity measurement methods,
the instrument can be adjusted so that it reads the same value as the one measured in a lab by
performing the zero shift correction or sensitivity correction.
In this case, the instrument determines zero and sensitivity correction factors in addition to the
calibration factor determined based on the calibration using standards. (See Equation 6.2.)
T1=[100/SL/S0 ]*[V-A]......... Equation 7.1
T2 = K*T1 + B
.....................
Equation 7.2
Where:
T1: Turbidity based on turbidity standards
S0: Sensitivity factor
Calculated reference sensitivity calibration. This calibration is performed at the factory
before shipment.
SL: Slope
Calibrated by slope calibration. SL(%) value means how different sensitivity is from
factory sensitivity.
A: Zero
Calculated in zero calibration using zero water.
V: Measuring signal
This signal is calculated by ratio of scattered light current and light source monitoring
current.
T2: Turbidity after zero and sensitivity corrections
K: Correction factor
Determined in sensitivity corrections or 2-point sensitivity corrections.
B: Zero shift value
Determined in zero shift corrections or 2-point sensitivity corrections.

Turbidity manual calibration
Zero calibration (7.3)
Adjust the reading to zero point. Update the Zero of calibration parameter.(A in Equation
7.1) Zero
Slope calibration (Check tool) (7.4)
Update the Slope of calibration parameter (SL in Equation 7.1) by using Check tool.
Adjust the reading to pre-defined turbidity value of Check tool.
Be sure to perform after Zero calibration.
Slope calibration (Standard solution) (7.5)
Adjust the reading to arbitrary concentration value.
Update the Slope of calibration parameter (SL in Equation 7.1).
Be sure to do this after Zero calibration.
l
Turbidity auto calibration
Auto zero calibration (7.6)
Zero calibration by feeding Zero water automatically.
Enable only when the converter setting of Auto Wash/Auto Calibration is correct and the
sampling system runs normally.
