pH Measurement Overview
pH measurement is easy and accurate with the Orion 720Aplus. The
meter/electrode system is calibrated with one to five buffers which bracket your
sample pH.
For better accuracy, at least a two buffer calibration is recommended.
The autocalibration feature automatically recognizes 1.68, 4.01, 7.00, 10.01, and
12.46 buffers. For best results, an ATC probe is recommended to compensate for
temperature variation.
ISE Measurement Overview
Direct measurement using ion selective electrodes (ISE’s) is fast and convenient
with the Orion 720Aplus. The meter/electrode system is calibrated with one to
five standards of known concentration which bracket sample concentration.
Unknown sample concentration is then read directly from the display in units
used for calibration molarity, ppm, %, etc.

Orion 720Aplus pH/ISE Meter
All meter functions are described in detail in the accompanying instruction
manual. For calibration and measurement only a few steps are required.
Step-by-step instructions are given in this guide.
Meter Overview
1.
Results and current mode are displayed in the large main field.
