Interferences
Persistant Interferences
1. Water samples with little Carbonate hardness* can lead to false pH values.
*K < 0.7 mmol/l ≙ total alkalinity < 35 mg/l CaCO
S4.3
Removeable Interferences
1. pH values below 6.5 and above 8.4 can produce results inside the measuring range.
A plausibility test (pH-meter) is recommended.
2. Salt error
For salt concentrations below 2 g/l, no significant error, is expected due to the salt
concentration of the reagent tablet. For higher salt concentrations the measurement
values
have to be adjusted as follows:
