Nominal pH of Cal 1 solution (pH = 7.4)
pH(Cal1)

Sensitivity of the pH electrode from the previous 2-point
calibration
pH(Cal1,prev)

pH of Cal 2 solution
Sens(pH)
=
Relative sensitivity of the pH electrode chain.
Sensitivity
The sensitivity of the pH electrode (Sens
pH
) is obtained from the calibration line
obtained from a 2-point calibration on Calibration Solutions 1 and 2 (Cal 1 and Cal
2), and is calculated from the following equation:

The default drift tolerances set by Radiometer for Drift 1 are
±
