How to perform a full pH probe calibration on an Edge 100 and 200

Learn how to use the pH full calibration function for Edge 100 and 200 controllers.

A full calibration is needed:

1) to confirm that probe is still tracking

2) if you are constantly calibrating a full calibration will help completely calibrate the probe.


Items needed:

1) pH probe connected to controller

2) Buffer solution pH 7 and Ph 4 or Ph9

3) Glass of water. 

 

 

Steps: 

  1. Make sure the pH probe is connected to controller
  2. Isolate controller from flow
  3. Unscrew pH probe from probe housing
  4. Wash probe in water
  5. Shake off probe
  6. Go to calibration menu click on Ph calibration click on full calibration
  7. Immerse probe into buffer solution pH 7
  8. Wait till the number under reading stabilizes 
  9. Calibrate probe under P1
  10. Wash probe in water
  11. Shake off probe 
  12. Immerse probe into buffer solution pH 4 or pH 9 
  13. Wait till the number under reading stabilizes 
  14. Calibrate probe under P2
  15. Save
  16. Wash probe in clean water
  17. Shake off probe
  18. Replace probe into probe container 
  19. Turn on flow to controller
  20. Wait a few hours to manual test and make sure controller matches

Troubleshooting: If when the probe is immersed in the buffer solution the reading on the calibration screen does not match the buffer solution, your probe needs to be replaced. 

If the pH still needs to be calibrated multiple times after full calibration your probe needs to be replaced.
