Problem
Electrode asymmetry
potential > 60 mV.
Electrode slope < 85 % of
theoretical value.
Electrode slope > 103 % of
theoretical value.
Buffers temperature.
Unstable reading for more
than 60 seconds.
1st and 2nd buffer solutions
are the same.
Incorrect buffer solution.
Problem
Measured value out of
range.
Measured temperature out
of range.
Measured value (pH or mV)
out of programmed limits L1
and/or L2.
Possible causes
Electrode "worn out".
Buffer solutions contaminated.
Electrode "worn out".
Buffer solutions contaminated.
Electrode "worn out".
Buffer solutions contaminated.
The temperature difference between both buffer
solutions used in calibration is > 3 °C.
Press ESC to quit.
Electrode defective or dirty, see miscellaneous
solutions.
Variation of buffer solution temperature.
(i.e. when stored previously in the refrigerator).
Same standard was used for both calibration steps.
Electrode is broken or cable defective.
Press ESC to quit.
The used buffer solution is not among the three
stored, pH 7.00, 4.01 or 9.21 at 25 °C.
Press ESC to quit.
(i.e. when stored previously in the refrigerator).
Possible causes
pH value < -2 or > 16, mV < –1500 or > 1500.
The current output will be frozen at 22 mA.
(Alarm).
Pt 1000 or Pt 100 broken or temperature
< –20 or > 150°C
The current output will be frozen at 22 mA.
(Alarm)
Probe configuration not correct.
Verify programmed values for L1 and L2.
Verify process evolution.
