The 2 calibration packets were NOT included as stated on the "package contents". How am I to calibrate the PH unit?

You need to have a solution of known PH so you can test your PH metter and calibrate it according to instructions
216127
In order to calibrATE you do need the packets and thew ionized water. Unless you can get a lab to check it against their equipment
216128
you must write to the vender. i'm sure they will get the packets out to you.

You can order PH calibration solutions from Amazon or you can go to a quality Garden store that sells PH calibration solutions for soil testing and hydroponic gardening.

Mine did come with the two calibration packets, but I purchased General Hydroponics Standard Reference Solution when I ordered the unit. I used that to calibrate it when it came and found it to be exactly 7.0. Would recommend getting the extra solution.

on the jar it says 60% hca in gce, but there is no mention of the percentage per tablet

If u r using the adapter that came with your ph and it is still giving you that problem then I would suggest returning the item. But if you are using another adapter, like an iPad adapter or something, it probably isn't going to be compatible. Try locating a universal type adapter. If u still have a problem then return it.Hope this helps

the calibrated range of the ph.7 and ph4.0 buffers is .5 degrees accrurate...I have used this equipment for years and find it to be great...have not used the 10.1 buffer solution in food processes...but will tell you this equipment is very reliable...

I ordered one of these and was concerned that it was not reading accurately, and the company replaced it. Neither device came with a calibration certificate.

Any. All ph meter should be calibrated once a while with a solution like this. You will find helpful to use the one suits best for your measures. Lets say you have to measure ph levels arround 5. So you get the 5 calibratiom solution. Or you need to measure arround 11, then you get the 11 calibration solution. Or like me, for marine aquarium, that o need to be as acurate around 8, then I use this product. Some meters will require two calibration Solutions, check that too.

My advise, buy a solution,, 7.0 and a 4.01.., it does come with a storage solution which is a one time use. If you plan on using your ph meter every week or more your gonna want the solution. It's best to know your ph is on point all the time especially for certain plants.. you can get away with just one solution (7.0), I personal like to use to calibration solutions cause it gives you 2 different readings, that way you know your pen is on point,, some future advise, use 2 shot glasses and pour each cali solution in each,, that way to much isnt wasted in a cup, also if you put plastic wrap or something to top the shot glasses you can use that same solution for up to a month, that way your not constantly pouring new solution in your shot glasses everyday or week. They say you only calibrate once a month, thats false, you calibrate it when it needs it, I have this same pen and its ok, but I have to calibrate it every 2 weeks and I use it twice a week. Thats why its good to have those shot glasses on standby so you dont have to pour and waste more. Oh and when you put in shot glass just make sure it fills up enough to cover the whole rod which should be right above the slit (the opening to the right of the circle shape hole) which is like the halfway mark between the HM logo and bottom. All in all good luck and enjoy

I checked my package thoroughly and did not see anything on pH. I was able to contact the company about this treat in regards to something different, and they responded very promptly. I would give that a try. Sorry I couldn't help anymore than this.

You need 2 things for your meter. 1) A bottle storage solution and 2) Bottles of calibration solution. For the storage solution, do a search on Amazon for "electrode storage solution" and buy a bottle of one of the solutions that come up. For the calibration solution, search "pH calibration solution" and buy a bottle of whichever solution you need. If measuring the pH of acidic things, you really only need to get a bottle of 4.01 and 7.00 calibration solutions. If measuring alkaline things, get a bottle of 7.00 and 10.00 solutions.

The package doesn't specify the exact ph, but acid free should mean the ph is 7 (neutral) or slightly above 7. Hope this helps.

No. I had to buy the calibration fluid separately. Best deal I could find was a two bottle combination ($27 more) which really bit the big one because I only needed just one bottle.

I checked the users guide and do not see any information about calibration of the unit. There is a support number you can call.

I can only speak for the one I received as the short directions didn't mention specific requirements for calibrating.It was only after I first attempted to calibrate that I became aware of this. I pushed the buttons according to the directions. A few seconds after it started a self-check, the screen flashed '1000.0g', which of course I didn't have. I did have a total of 1000.0g in a set of inexpensive calibration weights but I couldn't add them to the scale fast enough and the calibration was off accordingly.I did purchase on Amazon a single inexpensive non-certified 1000.0g calibration weight for $16.00 and it worked perfectly.I hope this helps you out.

Most pens calibrate at 7.0, check your pH meter's instructions for further calibration information

yes just this. how ever you should also use "PH Calibration Solution (PH 4.01)" to ensure your pH pen is set right.

I just checked and there is no information on the chemical composition of the ingredients of these packets.

Contact the manufacturer Body Solid. Most end users have already disposed of the packaging and don't have the ability to do chemical composition tests....
