First, what is the right calibration standard? Second, when should you calibrate? Selecting a calibration standard DO NOT reuse the calibration solution. Contaminants in the solution will affect the calibration and the accuracy. Be sure to use fresh solution everytime. Conductivity standard buffer is the most easy available option. So, no matter you want to calibrate TDS or Salinity or Conductivity, you can always use conductivity buffer here. For best results, select a conductivity buffer which is near the sample value you are measuring. For example, the most common buffer is 1413uS or 12.88mS or 111.8mS. If your measuring range is below 2000ppm TDS, you may use 1413uS buffer, not 12.88mS buffer. However, if your measuring range is above 2000ppm,you can use 12.88mS or other available smaller value buffer. There are three calibration range. By using 1413uS, it is in range 1, 12.88mS is in range 2 and 111.8mS is in range 3. Cond. Range value Range 1 (P3.3) 0~1999uS Range 2 (P3.4) 2.0~19.99mS Range 3 (P3.5) 20.0~160.0 mS 10 When should you do the calibration? Calibration is necessary and should be done regularly. -If you are measuring the mid-ranges, calibrate the meter at least once a month. Soak the probe for 15 mins before calibration or measurement can saturate the probe surface and minimize drift. -If measure at the extreme temperatures or in very low/very high concentration, calibrate the meter at least once a week to get specified accuracy. CONDUCTIVITY CALIBRATION Please follow up below steps to proceed the conductivity calibration. It is strongly suggested to do the calibration in room temperature. 1. Insert the probe into demineralized water or distilled water for about 30 minutes to rinse the probe. 2. Select the proper conductivity standard for calibration. 3. Pour 3 cm height of the solution into two separate clean containers. 4. Power on the meter. 5.Rinse the probe into one of above containers. Gently stir the probe. 6.Dip the rinsed probe into the other container. Please make sure there is no air bubbles attached on electrode. Swing the probe in air can get rid of the bubble easily. Just repeat dip & swing this procedure for about 5 times. 7.Gently stir and let the probe stabilize to the solution temperature by waiting about 15 mins. 11 8.Press "O " more than2 seconds to begin calibration. The detected conductivity value of solution will blink on LCD. If your solution is or closed to 1413uS or 12.88mS or 111.8mS, those 3 value will be displayed as default. 9. Press " " or " " and " " to O change the value in order to match the displayed value to the buffer you pickup. You can adjust the conductivity reading up to +20% from the detected value. However, if your detected value and standard value differs by more than +20%, it means cleaning or replacing meter is needed. For example: Standard: 5.3mS; Detected value: 3.7mS, Adjustable range: +0.7mS (3.7*20%) However, under above situation, the values already differed over 20%. 10 When the detected buffer condition is stable enough, meter will auto save calibration data in 15 seconds or you may also press " " to confirm the value. You will see "SA" appear on LCD to indicate the calibration is successfully done. 11.Repeat 1~9 for other ranges if needed. To exit calibration mode without saving , you can press " " in step9 more than 2 seconds to quit. You won't see "SA" by doing this. This lets you retain the previous calibration data for the current range. 12 MAINTENANCE Make sure the electrode is clean! Between measurements, rinse the electrode with deionised water. If the eletrode has been exposed to a solvent immiscible with water, clean it with a solvent miscible with water e.g. Ethanol and rinse carefully with water. Store the electrode carefully! Before storing, rinse it carefully in de-ionised water and store dry. TROUBLESHOOTING Power on but no display 1. Didn't press the power key properly 2.

Appendix B: Calculating TDS conversion factors 16 The meter can be calibrated by using TDS calibration standard solutions. The calibration standard requires the TDS value at a standard temperature such as 25 C. To determine the Conductivity-to-TDS conversion factor, please use the following formula: Factor = Actual TDS : Actual Conductivity @ 25oC Definitions: Actual TDS: Value from the solution bottle label or from a standard buffer which made by using high purity water and precisely weighed salts. Actual Conductivity: Value measured using a properly calibrated Conductivity/TDS/Temperature meter. Both the actual TDS and the actual conductivity values must be in the same magnitude of units. For example, if the TDS value is ppm, the conductivity value must be in uS; if the TDS value is in ppt, the conductivity value must be in mS. Check this number by multiplying the conductivity reading by the factor in the above formula and the result is the TDS in ppm.
