Questions and answers
How soon should conductivity measurements be made after sampling?
Conductivity measurements should be made as soon as possible after sampling and preferably within 24 hours. (paragraph 4)
How should electrical conductivity readings of zero be reported?
Report less than 1pS/M, if the electrical conductivity reads zero on the meter. (paragraph 5)
What should be done if a Saybolt sample is turbid?
Filter the sample through a sufficient number of qualitative filter papers until clear when it is turbid. (paragraph 3)
How often should the thermocouple be calibrated?
Calibrate a thermocouple when first installed and then normally every 30 to 50 tests thereafter, but at least every 6 months. (paragraph 1)
When should a solution titration be rerun?
If any solution differs from the means by +/- 0.0005N, rerun the titration process.
