Select conductivity or TDS calibration solution (available from the distributor) which is close to

the expected conductivity of the sample that you want to measure. Ensure that the calibration

solution which you use comes with a “Temperature vs Conductivity” or a “Temperature vs

TDS” label on it. This information is required during calibration.

In CON 100 meter, calibration is only done in the conductivity (COND) mode. The CON 10

and CON 200 meters allow calibration either in the conductivity range or the TDS range but

not both. As such, a calibration in the TDS mode of a particular range will replace a prior

calibration in the conductivity mode if both ranges are the same (i.e. Range 2 in COND and

Range 2 in TDS).

In general, it is recommended that calibration be performed around a point close to 2/3 of full

scale. For better accuracy, perform a calibration close to the expected measurement range

prior to the measurement.

Corresponding TDS values are obtained by multiplying the recommended conductivity values

by the TDS factor. The default TDS factor is 0.5.

Before starting calibration, make sure you are in the correct measurement mode. When you

switch on the meter, the meter starts up in the measurement mode you shut it off in previously.

For example, if you shut the meter off in COND measurement previously, the meter will come

back into COND measurement when you switch the meter on.

Before calibrating, select the correct mode by pressing the MODE key. There are 3 modes:

COND

for conductivity measurements,

TDS

for total dissolved solids (TDS) measurements,

TEMP

for temperature measurements.
