1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing our Con 700 series benchtop meter. This microprocessor-based meter is economical and simple to use. The design incorporates a large LCD for clear viewing, yet offers a small footprint to conserve space.

The CON 700 measures conductivity or TDS, and temperature

r ºF) simultaneously.

(ºC o Each meter includes a convenient slide-out card for quick

referenc

Some configurations include an electrode arm and metal bra

cket which can be easily attached to the left or right side of

the meter according to your preference. The CON 700 series benchtop meter replaces our popular CON

510 serie

s meter that was introduced in 2002.

We take great pride in every instrument we manufacture and hope

this one serves you well.

3. ELECTRODE INFORMATION

The CON700 includes an electrode with a nominal cell constant of k = 1.0, built-in temperature sensor, and 1 meter cable. The Ultem body housing has good chemical resistant properties. The electrode design offers fast temperature response and reduces air entrapment, ensuring accurate, repeatable, and stable readings.

The wetted materials of the probe include:

• Polyetherimide (Ultem) – protective probe guard

• Polybutylterphalate (Valox) – sensor housing

Stainless Steel (SS 304) – 2 bands

•

The protective probe guard can be removed temporarily for cleaning however it must be re-attached during measurement and calibration. Erroneous results will occur while the probe guard

is removed.

Always immerse the probe beyond upper steel band for best results. Use the fill line on the outside of the probe guard for reference.

4. CALIBRATION

4.1 Automatic or Manual Calibration

The CON 700 is capable of automatic or manual calibration for conductivity, and manual calibration for TDS.

In the automati one of (4) conductivity calibration standard values depending o range and normalization temperature being used (TA

If you only use calibration standards that are listed in TABLE 1, automatic calibration is recommended. If you intend to calibrate with one or more standards that are not listed in must be set for manual calibration instead.
