Meter User Guide
Obtaining accurate pH values depends on both the correct measurement
of standard and sample temperatures and on the compensation for any
variations in these temperatures . This thermal compensation has generally
been accomplished either manually (by measuring sample solution with a
thermometer and then entering the measured temperature on the meter),
or automatically (by placing a separate temperature probe together with a
pH electrode in the solution) .
The temperature of a solution affects pH measurements in two ways:
1 . The pH of buffers and samples actually changes with temperature . For
buffers, this change is known and is built into the PerpHecT meters .
2 . The slope of the calibration, which the meter uses to convert the
raw millivolt readings of the electrode to pH values, changes with
temperature . At 25 °C, a 10 degree change in temperature changes the
slope by 3 .4% .
How important is direct temperature compensation to pH measurement?
To see the effects of temperature, look up your approximate sample
temperature on the left side of Table .1 . Read across the top to your
approximate pH value . The value shown at the intersection is the error
a 1° C change in temperature will cause in pH measurement without
compensation . Accurate temperature compensation is essential to accurate
pH measurement .
