NaCl conversion factor.
• DO NOT change the calibration solution type unless specically
directed to do so by a member of the technical staff of your facility.
NOTE: Check display to see if solution displayed (KCl, NaCl or 442) is
already the type desired. If not:
1 . P r e s s , or to select the parameter whose
solution type you wish to change.
2. Press and hold key
for 3 seconds to make
“SEL” appear (see Figure
3). For demonstration
purposes, all 3 solution
types are shown
simultaneously.
3. Use the or key to select type of solution desired
The selected solution type will be displayed: KCl, NaCl or 442.
4. Press to accept new solution type.
X. CALIBRATION
A. Proper Handling of Reference Solutions
ALWAYS perform calibrations and calibration checks with standard
reference solutions that are NIST traceable.
• Myron L Company reference solutions are highly recommended
and are the same solutions used in the manufacture and factory
calibration of your Digital Dialysate Meter™.
Toensurestandardsolutionandcalibration/vericationaccuracy
• Storesolutionsinacool,darkplace.
• Preferredstoragetemperatureis25°C/77°F,theidealcalibration
temperature.
• Keepsolutionstightlycappedtoavoidevaporation.
• Whenusingasolution,pouritdirectlyfromthebottle.
• If using a syringe or pipette, pour the solution into another
containerandllthesyringeorpipettefromthere.
• DO NOT use the pipette or syringe to draw solution directly from
the bottle.
• Usethesolutionimmediatelyafterdispensingtopreventchangesin
concentration due to evaporation.
• Recapthebottleimmediatelyafterdispensing.
