This instrument is designed to be extremely accurate, fast, and simple to use in diverse water quality applications. Advanced features include highly stable microprocessor-based circuitry; automatic temperature compensation from 15ºC to 30ºC while in calibration mode; user-intuitive design; and waterproof housing. A true one-handed instrument, the PT3 is easy to calibrate and easy to use. To take a measurement, you simply push a button then dip the PT3 in solution. Results display in seconds.
MODE | METHOD OF MEASUREMENT |
Hold (default) | Once stabilized, the readings are captured then displayed. |
LIVE | Real-time readings are displayed continuously during measurement. |
* Temperature compensation in calibration mode: Temperature affects the reaction potentials for all chemicals differently. True ORP is the direct measurement of electron activity during an oxidation-reduction reaction, regardless of temperature. However, for maximum accuracy and ease of calibration, the Myron L® Company has developed three calibration standard solutions with known dissolved species. We derived the temperature compensation (from 15ºC to 30ºC) for those solutions, and embedded automatic temperature compensation into the calibration function of your PT3. Note: To verify calibration while in measurement mode, you must manually correct for any variation in temperature. Example: @25ºC, ORP2602OZ calibration solution will read 260mV, however @ 20.0ºC ORP2602OZ will read 265mV.
