This work presents a new calibration of the metallicity scale for elliptical galaxies based on new observational data. I use my observations with the 1000-channel IPCS of the 6m telescope. The spectra for 100 galaxies are published elsewhere (Sil'chenko & Shapovalova, 1989; Sil'chenko, 1990). A subsample of 30 ellipticals has become a base for the new metallicity scale.
