Calibration liquids

[BigC]

Hi guys
Anybody know any websites in the UK where I can buy calibration fluids (ph4 & ph7) in quantities of say 500ml - 1ltr. To calibrate my pH probe.
Thanks in advance..

thats quite a lot of fluid, why do you need so much?

i know when i need to do mine I'll order myself a bottle through work.

Probe needs to be recalibrated monthly according to mfs recomendations, I only got a little amount with the kit so really need some more. I knew that I could get hold of sachets OK but after you calibrate the probe you are supposed to disgard the calibration fluid that you've used. So once you open the sachet and callibrate then thats it gone. I was thinking along the lines of a plastic bottle with the fluid in and only using the amount I needed to just cover the probe tip which would be much more economical.
