For pH electrodes, originally supplied with milk analyser read the
following information:
Temperature compensations
The output of pH electrodes varies with temperature in manner, predicted by
theory. When needed, Sensorex can supply electrode holders with build-in
automatic temperature compensators. The need of automatic compensation
depends on the temperature variation, the pH value being measured. At pH
of about 7 there is no error due to temperature and, of course, at a constant
temperature there is no error. As shown in the following table, the pH error
due to temperature is a function of both the temperature and the pH value
being measured. At a pH of about 7 there is no error due to temperature and,
of course, at a constant temperature there is no error. The more the
temperature changes from the ambient calibration temperature and the more
the pH departs from 7 the greater is the pH error.

5. PH helpful hints
For greatest accuracy in pH measurement, follow these guidelines:
- Use the same technique to measure samples, which was used for
calibration.
- Be consistent with stirring rates, times and conditions.
- Calibrate with buffers, which are close in temperature to that of the
sample.
- Calibrate the pH electrode regularly, e.g. once a day for accuracy to
within 0.05 pH.
