Question 4

is it calibrated

Accepted Answer

Our company owns 5 of these units currently.  There is no Calibration Certificate with the equipment, however we did not get a calibration certificate with the Hach Dr890 units I have either.  We have compared them with the results of our Lab analyzer (Lachet 8500 series) and have found them to be within acceptable limits for a field device (within 2% of Lachet results).  It is very important that you keep the test cell clean and fresh reagents, if you want your measurements accurate.
