ISE Calibration
The pH 450 can measure ion concentration such as ammonia
or fluoride when using an ion selective electrode (ISE) for
the specific ion of interest. See Setup to select one of (3) ISE
standard groups based on your intended standards and range.
Use a minimum of 2 values for calibration and prepare the
corresponding ion calibration solutions. For best results always
begin with your lowest standard value, followed by the next
lowest standard.
Refer to your Ion Selective Electrode instruction manual for
details on conditioning, storage, maintenance, calibration
standard preparation, Ionic Strength Adjustment, trouble-
shooting, etc. Each ISE is unique and requires care and
operation that is specific to the electrode and ion of interest.
1. Connect the ISE and press MODE as needed to view ppm.
The primary display will show "- - - -" without a stored
ion calibration.
2. Rinse the ISE with clean water and dip into your lowest
calibration standard and stir. Press CAL.
3. Use t/s keys to match the primary display to your desired
ion calibration standard (0.10, 1.0, 10, etc). The secondary
display is the corresponding mV.
4. Press ENTER when the reading is stable to accept the
calibration. ERR indicates that the calibration for the
current point was not successful. This occurs when the
slope (mV change between standards) is <15 mV/decade
or >90 mV/decade. The primary display will show the next
highest calibration standard. Use t/s keys to select a
different ion calibration standard if needed.
5. Rinse the ISE then dip into the corresponding
calibration standard and stir. Repeat Steps 3 & 4 as
needed. If the number of calibration points has been
reached, the display will return to measurement mode.
Note: The mV/decade slope value will be displayed in
during measurement mode on the lower display upon a
successful calibration. The value corresponds to the slope
of the active reading.
mV Offset Adjustment
1. While in mV measurement mode, dip the ORP and ATC
sensors into a solution with a known mV value (i.e. Zobel,
Light's, quinhydrone, or iodide/triiodide) and stir.
Part of Thermo Fisher Scientific
2. When the "READY" indicator appears, use up/down arrows
to adjust the primary reading to match the mV value at
the measured temperature, then press ENTER. The meter
allows an adjustable maximum value of ±200 mV from the
factory default mV value. When an offset has been stored
successfully, R.mV replaces mV.
Temperature Calibration / Manual ATC
1. Press CAL from any measurement, then press MODE.
2. Skip to step 3 for manual ATC, otherwise, dip the temperature
sensor into a solution with a known accurate temperature.
The upper display shows the active temperature while
the lower display shows the factory default temperature
without adjustment.
3. Use up/down arrows to adjust the upper display. Press
ENTER to accept the calibration temperature. The maximum
adjustable value is ±10 ºC (or ±18 ºF) from factory default.
Error Messages
"ERR" will appear when an error condition exists or the
incorrect key is pressed. Common examples include:
• Pressing ENTER during calibration before the "READY"
indicator appears. Wait for the "READY" indicator before
pressing ENTER.
• The calibration point was not successful. The allowable mV
difference is 15 to 90 mV/decade.
• UR (Under Range) • OR (Over Range)
Intended Use, Maintenance & Precautions
These handheld meters use sensors to detect various parameters
for water-based measurements. For routine maintenance
disconnect the power cord or battery, then dust or wipe the
display using a damp cloth. If necessary, warm water or a mild
water based detergent can be used. Immediately remove any
spilled substance from contact with the meter using the proper
cleaning procedure for the type of spill.
• Do not use this equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres.
• Refer to the electrode instructions for use, storage and cleaning.
• Ensure that no liquid enters the instrument.
• Do not use any aggressive cleaning chemicals (solvents or
similar agents).
• There are no user serviceable parts inside. Attempts to
service internal parts may void the warranty.
• WARNING: No modification of this equipment is allowed
