what used to be a complicated calibra-

supplied beaker with the standard solu-
tion, immerse the sensor and press a
button once for one-point calibration for
each of the four parameters pH, con-
ductivity, turbidity and DO. Two-point
calibration is also possible should more

20 samples of data on 6 parameters

can be stored in memory to be
recalled later for display and print out
Store the results of measurement of all
six parameters for up to 20 samples.
There is no need to record measured
values on site. Data stored in memory
can be recalled and displayed at any
time, and can even be simuItaneously
printed out on any standed printer by
connecting it to the Centronics-specifi-
cation printer output terminals.
