082 Pinks and Blues: Calibration
Episode 82: Show Notes
I know you know the feeling.\\xa0 You just got a delivery and it\'s your brand-new pH meter you ordered from your favorite supplier.\\xa0 You open the box, experience that new meter smell and can wait to start using it.\\xa0 In fact, most of us are so excited, we never even open the operations manual.\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
On today\'s episode we are going to talk about all the different probes and sensors we have on our meters and controllers.\\xa0 Specifically, how to calibrate them.\\xa0 The truth is that most probes are dying as soon as they come off the manufacturing floor.\\xa0 As a water treater we rely on the tools we use to be accurate so we can make changes based on the right information.\\xa0
Sit back, relax and learn about all\\xa0things\\xa0calibration.\\xa0 Oh, and maybe read that manual to help to.\\xa0
