    Hi, recently i got a pH meter from one of the bros here. However it didnt come with calibration liquid. Hence, can i use distilled water asthe pH 7 calibration liquid? Since distilled water is also ph 7, i guess it wouldnt make much of a difference if i use it compared to a proper calibration liquid? Thanks!

    I have a PH pen but I think the calibration is off. The screen displays -- instead of a number.

    Think your probe is spoilt..

    For calibration for PH meter, normally should use PH4 calibration liquid & PH7 calibration liquid for low acidic tank.. If you are using for low alkaline tank, then use PH7 calibration liquid and PH10 calibration liquid..
