4.2 DO Calibration in Air (with ATC) –% Saturation Mode
You can calibrate this meter quickly and easily in air. The exact calibration value depends on
barometric pressure. The meter is set to a factory default of 760 mm Hg, which results in a
calibration value of 100% saturation in air.
NOTE: If the barometric pressure setting has been changed from 760 mm Hg, the calibration
value in air will automatically adjust to a value other than 100%. The adjusted value will be
correct for the new barometric pressure setting. See Section 8.23 for barometric pressure
setting.
To calibrate 100% Saturation:
1. Press MODE key to select % Saturation mode.
2. Rinse the probe well with deionised rinse water. For best
accuracy, wipe the end of the probe dry. Do not touch the
membrane.
3. Hold the probe in the air gently with the sensor facing
down and press CAL key to calibrate the meter. The LCD
will show a “CAL” mode. The primary display will show
the current value of measurement and the secondary
display will show “100.0” to which the meter is going to be
calibrated. Wait for the reading to stabilise.
4. Press ENTER key to confirm the calibration. The meter
automatically calibrates to 100% air saturation and
returns to the measurement mode.
NOTE: To exit from DO Calibration mode without
confirming calibration, DO NOT press ENTER.
Press CAL/MEAS instead.
