PROCEDURE
4.1 On the instrument 15 minutes before starting
the calibration.
4.2 Make dilutions using fluoroscene in 0.1 M NaOH
(1ppm, 2ppm, 3ppm and 4 ppm).
4.3 Use 0.1M NaOH as blank and set the instrument
on “0 “with blank knob.
4.4 Set the instrument at ‘20’ with 1ppm solution.
4.5 Take the readings at 1, 2, 3 and 4 ppm without
touching any of the knobs.
