GEM Validating pH Range

Hi there,
Can anyone give any insight on how your institutes brought your pH linearity range down to the technical range of 6.8 or what third party materials did you use? The validation solution from Werfen only allowed us to get down to 6.9 and a couple of our units are concerned we couldn't get it lower.
Thank you for any help!
