chemical producer and the general lab safety rules.
4.1
Calibration
STARTER 400D
allows you to perform 1-point or 2-point calibrations; Ohaus suggest 1-point
calibration(100% DO calibration) for samples which DO value is not less than 2 mg/L.
Only when measure samples which DO value is lower than 2 mg/L, Ohaus suggest 2-point
calibration.
4.1.1
Zero-oxygen solution
Preparing a zero-oxygen solution: put approximately 20ml of pure or deionized water into the
bottle of DO Zero Oxygen Chemical (30059257, there are about 5g powder in it), stir for at least 5
minutes.
This zero-oxygen solution is used for 2-point calibration.
4.1.2
Performing 1-point calibration
When performing calibration, the meter only uses Auto End Point Mode.
1 point calibration can be performed in the air or oxygen-saturated water. There will be a little
difference between calibration in the air and in oxygen-saturated water.
Before calibration you need to rinse the DO probe with pure water and carefully wipe the water off
with a tissue.
o
Place the probe in the air (or in oxygen-saturated water).
o
Press
button-
, the calibration icon
appear on the display.
o
The meter reaches endpoints automatically, 100% will display. Measurement icon
disappears.
