70. pH pH is a unit of measurement which describes the degree of acidity or alkalinity of a solution. pH refers to a combination of p for power and H for the symbol of the element hydrogen. pH is defined in chemistry as the negative log of the activity of the hydrogen ion: pH=-log10H+ pH is a measurement of the activity of hydrogen ions in a solution at a given temperature. Activity is a function of the availability of hydrogen ions and not their concentration in a solution. pH is measured on a scale of 0 to 14 where pH values less than 7 are considered acidic and values greater than 7 are alkaline.

72. pH Meter Oakton pHTestr 2 Compact, portable pH meter. Features of this meter include one-piece body design, microprocessor control with digital display, and automatic temperature control (ATC).

73. pH Meter Calibration (1) Calibration PH meters must be calibrated properly and regularly to provide accurate readings. The OAKTON pHTestr 2 uses up to three-point calibration (pH 4, 7,and 10) and automatically recognizes the selected buffer. 1. Turn the instrument on using the ON/OFF button. 2. Dip the electrode end of the unit into the selected buffer (pH 4, 7, or 10) up to the color band. Immersing the unit deeper into the test solution could damage electronic components in the instrument.

74. pH Meter Calibration (2) Calibration (cont’d) 3. Press the CAL button. The instrument is in calibration mode and “CA” will appear on the display. Calibration begins when a number close to the selected buffer starts to flash on the display. 4. After about 30 seconds confirm calibration by pressing the HOLD/CON button. If calibration is confirmed, “CO” will appear on the display. The buffer value reading will then be shown on the display. 5. The procedures listed in steps 2-4 are then repeated using the other two buffers, if desired. 6. Periodically check the calibration of the instrument to verify proper operation. Full calibration of the instrument should be performed daily. Confirmation of calibration with a known buffer solution should be performed before, and after the measurement of a set of samples.
