Just got my Apex so looking for some help on this. I realised that what I should have done is floated the calibration solution in 26.5c before calibration, which is what I run my tank at. I didn't and so the salinity reading is 5.8% higher than what it should be, right? I could be totally wrong here but this is what I think is happening.
The reading I get is 35.8ppt at 26.5c
The difference between 25c and 26.5c is 5.8% so 35.8ppt - 5% = 34.01
Around 33-34 is what I am expecting based off refractometer and just received ICP test.
Can anyone shed some light on this, explain it or suggest a way around it to show the correct figure?
Thanks
