**1\. Range of application** This technical document specifies the calibration of pH tester with glass electrodes of (0-14) pH in measuring range and accurac

1. Range of application

This technical document specifies the calibration of pH tester with glass electrodes of (0-14) pH in measuring range and accuracy of at least 0,02 pH

2. Calibrating techniques

- Outside check

- Technical check

- Measurement check

3. Calibrating instruments

3.1 Standard measuring instrument (s)

Technical Calibration Buffer:


- Range of measurement: (0-14) pH

- Measurement Uncertainty: ≤ 0.01 pH

3.2 Other measuring instrument (s)

Heated Digital Water Bath:


- Range of measurement: (+5 ÷ 99) °C

Standard Humidity, Temperature Meter


- Range of measurement: (-20 ÷ 70) °C

- Accuracy:

  ± 0.2 °C (10 ÷ 40 °C)

  ± 0.4 °C of the remaining

  ± 1%RH (10 ÷ 90) %RH 

  ± 2.0 %RH (of the remaining)

Hygro-Thermometer

- Range of measurement: (0 ÷ 50) °C

- Accuracy: ±0.5 °C

- Range of measurement: (10 ÷95) %RH

- Accuracy: ±3%RH

3.3 Auxiliary Instrument(s)

- Distilled water

- Sprayer

- Tissue, glass cup

4. Conditions for Calibration

Temperature: (25 ± 2) °C

Humidity:  80 %RH

The temperature, as well as the humidity, must be recorded before and after calibration

5. Prepare for Calibration
Prior to the calibration, the following preparations must be done:
- Prepare the Technical Calibration Buffer
- Place the pH tester and Technical Calibration Buffer in the calibration room at least 1 hour prior to calibration. 
- The Technical Calibration Buffer must be kept at constant temperature at least 1 hr at (25 ± 0,2) 0C in Heated Digital Water Bath
- Prior to calibration, immerse the pH tester electrode with distilled water at least 3 hrs in the lab.
Before measuring the pH level of Technical Calibration Buffer, the followings must be met:
- Clean the pH tester’s electrodes with distilled water.
- Dry the electrode with tissue.
The pH tester to be calibrated must be operating at least 15 mins prior to calibration.

6. Begin the calibration
6.1 Outside Check
6.2 Technical Check
6.3 Measurement Check
A pH tester is checked and measured according to the following content, method and requirements:
- Calibrate the pH tester according to the manufacturer's technical documents.
- Check the error with standard pH solutions
- Measure at least 3 times for each pH standard solution. Record the measured results in the record.
- Calculate the error

7. Measurement Uncertainty Evaluation

8. General handling

a. The calibrated pH tester is stamped, certified in paper along with calibration results, and measurement uncertainty.

b. The recommended calibration cycle of pH tester is 12 months.

Does thermal shock cause damage to electronic components?

An electronic component may operate stably under constant temperature conditions yet fail after repeated rapid transitions between hot and cold. The issue typically stems not from a specific temperature level, but rather from the rate of temperature change and the number of hot-cold cycles

The rigorous standards behind a multi-million-dollar MRI suite

An MRI system may be correctly installed and fully connected to the power supply, yet still encounter issues if the surrounding environment fails to meet technical specifications. Electromagnetic interference, RF shielding, power quality, grounding, temperature, humidity, and particulate levels are all factors that may require assessment, depending on the facility's design and the manufacturer's requirements.

Sinusoidal and Random Vibration: A Test Setup Guide for Industrial Engineers

During the operation of industrial machinery or the transportation of goods, persistent mechanical vibrations inevitably occur; these are a primary cause of material fatigue, loosened connections, and cracking in printed circuit boards (PCBs). To ensure product integrity before delivery to customers, R&D and QA/QC engineers must simulate these dynamic forces using vibration test systems.

Capacities of laboratory centrifuge tubes

Tubes with capacities of 0.2 ml, 1.5 ml, 15 ml, or 50 ml are commonly found in laboratories, yet each type is associated with specific sample categories and equipment configurations. DNA and RNA samples typically require small-volume microtubes; blood and cell samples often utilize 5 ml or 15 ml tubes; while large-volume processing workflows may require tubes of 50 ml, 100 ml, or greater capacity

How Much Does Atmospheric Pressure Need to Drop Before It Rains ?

A barometric pressure meter (barometer) often detects changes in weather conditions before rainfall begins. As atmospheric pressure falls, the structure of the surrounding air mass is also changing. However, there is no fixed pressure threshold that guarantees rain will occur.
