Tris-Compatible Flat pH Sensor (FPH-BTA)
Specifications and User Guide

TROUBLESHOOTING
-Primary Test: Does it read approximately 4 in its storage solution? (pH 13-14 indicates 0 volts, possibly a defective or damaged sensor)

-Secondary Test: Take readings in fresh buffers, NOT distilled water! If no buffers are available, try it in vinegar (~ pH 2.5-3.5) and ammonia (~ pH 10.5-11.5). If readings do not change when the sensor is placed in different solutions, the sensor is possibly defective or damaged.

CALIBRATION
– Calibrate? Usually no. However, for the most accurate measurements with this sensor, we recommend calibration. It is a simple process that only takes a few minutes. Custom calibrations can also be stored directly onto the sensor.
– For calibration instructions, see: How do I calibrate my sensor?
– In pH 4 buffer, the calibration voltage reading should be approximately 1.56
– In pH 7 buffer, the calibration voltage reading should be approximately 1.19
– In pH 10 buffer, the calibration voltage reading should be approximately 0.82
