Waterproof pH Testing Pen
Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
he Series WPH2 pH Testing Pen accurately monitors pH and temperature levels
T
n a variety of applications. This pocket-sized tester is ideal for pH level
i
measurements in lab environments, industrial plants, or field environmental
testing. It features an easy to replace electrode and automatically recognizes up
to 3 calibration buffer solution ranges. Both pH and temperature, in both English
and Metric units, appear on the large dual display. Both the electrode and battery
ompartment caps are sealed to provide an IP65 weatherproof rating.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Please read the manual completely before using this meter. Filing and keeping the
manual for future reference is recommended. It is also recommended to soak the
electrode for at least 30 min before using the meter to clear anything affecting the
probe.
Power Supply
The meter is powered by 4 LR44 button cell batteries. Check the batteries if it is
your first time use, if the battery symbol appears on the LCD, or if the meter cannot
power on.
To install the batteries:
1. Turn off the meter.
2. Loosen the battery cover in the counterclockwise direction (DO NOT discard the
black washer!).
3. Replace the old batteries with four new button cell LR44 batteries.
4. Make sure the batteries are in place and the polarity is correct.
5. Put the battery cover back and turn it tightly in the clockwise direction.

It is suggested to re-calibrate the meters after changing the

Remove the batteries from instruments that you don’t plan to
use for a month or more. Do not leave the batteries in the

3. Dip the electrode into the test solution. Press to power on the meter and stir it
to get a stable reading.
4. “pH” flashes while the meter is in measurement mode. The LCD shows the
measured pH and temperature. “pH” stops flashing when the reading is stable.

Probe slope and offset value
After re-calibration, checking probe slope and offset value could help to confirm the
necessity to replace the probe.
While doing 3 points calibration, there are two available slope values and one offset
point:
While doing 1 or 2 points calibration, the slope value SL1 equals that of SL2. The
offset point is still at pH7.
When the meter is off, press for >1 second to enter setting mode. The SL1 value
will appear on the LCD. Press to view the SL2 value. Press to view the offset
value. See diagram below.
Range 1 (SL1): 0.00 to 2nd point
Range 2 (SL2): 2nd point to 14.00 pH. Offset point is at pH7.
NOTICE
Change the probe while the slope value is <75 or >115 %. Also,
change the probe if the offset value is not between -60 to 60 mV.
