Description
Meytec buffer solution – pH 10.01 – sachet 20 ml
The Meytec buffer solution pH 10.01 sachet 20 ml is a single use alkaline calibration liquid for pH meters and testers used on swimming pool, spa and water treatment systems. It provides a stable reference at pH 10.01, allowing you to check and adjust instruments that need accurate readings in the higher pH range.
Role of the pH 10.01 buffer solution
Electronic pH meters slowly drift over time because probes age and are exposed to chemicals, temperature changes and continuous use. By calibrating with a Meytec pH 10.01 buffer solution, you define a reliable reference point at the alkaline end of the scale, which improves accuracy whenever measurements approach the upper part of the operational pH range.
In more advanced calibration routines, the Meytec buffer solution pH 10.01 sachet 20 ml is used together with neutral and acidic buffers such as pH 7.0 and pH 4.0. This multi point calibration allows the meter to correct its slope and offset so readings remain consistent across the whole scale.
Single use 20 ml sachet format
The buffer is supplied in a sealed 20 ml sachet, opened immediately before calibration. This single dose packaging limits exposure to air and contamination, which can alter the pH value if buffers are stored for long periods in open bottles.
- Individual 20 ml volume for one calibration or verification session.
- Factory sealed to maintain a precise pH 10.01 reference value.
- Convenient format for field service work and occasional calibrations.
Using a fresh Meytec sachet for each calibration helps keep digital pH testers and controllers within their specified accuracy, especially where they are used to monitor alkaline cleaning solutions or water outside the usual pool range.
Use with pH meters and controllers
The Meytec buffer solution pH 10.01 sachet 20 ml is compatible with most handheld pH meters, pocket testers and controller units that accept external buffer solutions. It is suitable for applications that require accurate readings above neutral pH, including certain pool maintenance tasks, laboratory checks and water treatment processes.
- Alkaline calibration liquid for electronic pH meters and pens.
- Supports verification of probes used near or above pH 9.
- Useful for instruments that monitor chemical cleaning baths and specific process waters.
Always follow the calibration sequence described in the instrument manual and respect any requirements for calibration order and temperature compensation.
Example calibration including pH 10.01
A typical multi point calibration with Meytec buffers uses pH 7.0 as a neutral point, pH 4.0 on the acidic side and pH 10.01 on the alkaline side. This provides a more precise characterisation of the probe response across the full range.
- Rinse the probe with clean water and dry gently with a soft cloth.
- Calibrate first in pH 7.0 buffer, adjusting the meter to display 7.0.
- Rinse the probe, then calibrate in pH 4.0 buffer if required by the meter.
- Rinse again, open the Meytec pH 10.01 sachet 20 ml and immerse the probe.
- Adjust the reading to 10.01 or confirm the value according to the meter instructions.
After calibration, the instrument will read more accurately over a wider pH range, which is especially useful when measurements are not limited to the typical pool window between pH 6.8 and 7.6.
Storage and handling recommendations
To keep the certified value stable, the Meytec buffer solution pH 10.01 sachet 20 ml should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Each sachet is intended for single use and any remaining buffer should be discarded after calibration.
- Keep sachets sealed until just before use.
- Avoid contaminating the buffer with sample water or other chemicals.
- Dispose of used sachets and leftover solution in line with local regulations.
Regular calibration with Meytec buffer solutions, combined with proper probe storage and cleaning, helps ensure that your pH measurements remain stable and trustworthy over time.
