4.6.2 Calibration for Turbidity
Turbidity calibration requires the use of a Turbidity Standard Solution. The manufacturer
recommends the 800 NTU Turbidity Standard Solution (part of the calibration kit No.
57330-00). A zero-point calibration using deionized water is also recommended.

For example, if a sample measures 750 NTU using the sensor and the standard is
800 NTU, the new factor would be calculated as follows:

or debris adhering to the surface of the bottle. Gently invert both StablCal standard
bottles a minimum of 50 times. Remove the lid and seal from each bottle. Slowly (to
avoid creating bubbles) pour the contents of the bottles into the calibration cylinder.
Immediately place the tip of the probe into the positioning bracket in the calibration
cylinder. The tip of the probe should be approximately 1-inch below the surface
standard. Allow the reading to become stable on the SENSOR MEASURE screen.
Record the value (measured value). Calculate the factor. Refer to
