What is the difference between technical, NIST/DIN and certified pH buffer solutions?

  • Technical pH buffers:
    This pH buffer solution comes with a certificate from METTLER TOLEDO. Precision is ± 0.02 pH units.
  • NIST/DIN pH buffers:
    Buffers prepared according to the recommendation of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the German Institute for Standardization (DIN). They also have a certificate from METTLER TOLEDO. Precision is ± 0.015 pH units.
  • Certified pH buffers:
    Selection of pH buffers that are verified and certified by a DAkkS (Deutsche Akkreditierungsstelle, German Accreditation Body) accredited laboratory. Precision is ± 0.02 pH units.

 

What are the tolerances of METTLER TOLEDO pH buffers?

  • DIN/NIST pH buffers ± 0.015 pH units
  • Certified (DAkkS) pH buffers ± 0.02 pH units
  • Technical pH buffers ± 0.02 pH units

 

*The tolerances are only for the buffer and not for the entire pH measurement of a sample.

 

I want to use fresh buffers in small quantities. Do you offer this option?

We offer buffer sachets (small volume packaging of 20mL) that are easy to use and guarantee fresh solutions for every calibration. Each sachet box comes with a printed certificate.

 

Should I stir the pH buffer when performing a calibration?

When measuring the pH value of a sample, gently stir the sample to ensure that it is homogeneous. It is important that calibration and measurement are done under the same conditions.
