1 INTRODUCTION

Thank you for selecting the pH 11/110 meter. These meters are microprocessorbased instruments and are designed to be handy, capable of allowing one-hand operation. Each has a large custom dual LCD for clear and easy reading. It is a unique and intelligent instrument that has the capability to cater to the preferences of the discerning individual. You have one of the two models:

• pH 11 meter

• pH 110 meter

Both meters have many user-friendly features – all of which are completely accessible through the splash-proof membrane keypad. Your meter includes a temperature probe, electrode holder, built-in meter stand and batteries. Eutech Instruments/ Oakton Instruments offer a wide selection of pH and ORP electrodes. Refer to Section 15 LIST OF ACCESSORIES on page 65 for more information.

The basic model is the pH 11 which is capable of measuring pH, Temperature, and millivolt (mV).

The deluxe model is the pH 110 which measures pH, Temperature, millivolt (mV) and relative millivolt (Rel mV). It has many advanced features and allows you to customise the meter settings. It also has a RS232C port that allows the meter to be connected to a computer or a printer via a cable for transferring data.

For power requirements, you can either use 4 AAA-sized batteries or an AC/DC power adapter (sold separately).

Please read this manual thoroughly before operating your meter.

Refer to section 15 LIST OF ACCESSORIES section on page 65 for information on temperature probe and other electrodes.

Instruction Manual CyberScan pH 11 / 110

3.2.2 To connect the temperature probe:

The temperature probe (provided) uses a 2.5 mm phono jack to connect with the socket on the pH 11/110. Insert the jack fully into the socket (Figure

6).

Note: Calibrate your temperature probe when you replace the probe and when using a “3-in-One” combination pH and temperature probe. See section 4.5 - Temperature Calibration on page 16 for instructions.

Figure 6: Insert temperature probe

3.2.3 Attaching the Electrode Holder to the Meter

The pH meter is designed to allow you to do a one hand operation for any measurement or calibration. For that purpose, two electrode holders are provided. They are designed for easy use and installation. Care must be taken to avoid use of excessive force in the process of attaching these components.

1. Locate the slot on the right-hand side of the meter.

2. Gently slide the flange of the holder into the slot on the meter. Make sure the holder is secured properly into the slot (Figure 7).

3. You can attach the electrode holder in different positions (Figure 9).

Figure 7: Insert electrode holder

3.2.4 To attach a second electrode holder:

The electrode holder is designed such that you can attach one holder onto another. Up to two electrodes (using the BNC connector and phono-jack) can be used with the meter at any one time.

Instruction Manual CyberScan pH 11 / 110

1. Align the flange of the second electrode holder with the slot of the first holder (Figure 8).

2. Slide the flange of the second holder into the slot of the first holder until the tops of the holders are aligned and secure.

Figure 8: To attach a second electrode holder

3.2.5 Insert the electrode into the holder

1. Do not use excessive force when inserting electrodes into the holders.

2. Insert the pH electrode into the opening of the first holder until the top housing of the electrode touches the top of the holder.

3. If you are using a separate temperature probe, insert the probe into the opening of the second holder until the ridge on the housing touches the top of the holder.

Figure 9: Different positions for one hand operation

NOTE: The holder is designed for probes 12 mm in diameter. Electrodes larger than 12 mm may not fit in the holder. Forcing the electrode into the opening may damage the holder or your electrode.

The electrode holders can be attached in different positions for greater flexibility in measurement and storage purposes. Simply slide out the electrode holders and reorient into appropriate orientation before putting into position.

Instruction Manual CyberScan pH 11 / 110

3.3 Connecting the AC/DC Adapter

Besides using four AAA-sized batteries as a power source, the pH 11/110 meter can also operate from the power mains using an AC/DC power adapter either at 120/220 VAC (sold separately). This is extremely useful if you have an A.C. power source available (e.g. laboratory).

Before plugging in, switch off the meter and the power source of adapter. This is a safety precaution that should be adhered to safeguard your meter.

1. Switch off the meter and power sources.

2. Select the correct AC/DC Adapter either at 120/220 VAC which matches your input mains voltage.

3. Select the correct output voltage of the AC/DC adapter. (Output Voltage: 9 to 15 V DC, Current: >=50 mA).

4. Gently insert the power adapter D.C. jack into the meter power socket.

5. Switch on the power source of the adapter followed by the meter.

3.4 Connecting the RS232C Cable (Only for pH 110)

The pH 110 meter provides a RS232C output for you to transmit your readings either to a printer or a computer via a cable. This is useful in instances where the meter is used for continuous monitoring of a certain process or experiment. Data output to the printer or the computer can then be evaluated.

The data is output in the ASCII format. This format allows the data to be imported by a wide variety of software that read ASCII data (e.g. Microsoft’s Excel, Lotus, Quattro-pro etc.). A complimentary Data Acquisition Software (DAS) is provided and it captures data transmitted into an ASCII file for later use.

1. Open the printer port cover located at the bottom end of the meter. Do not use excessive force when doing this. See Figure 10.

2. Noting the orientation of the RS232C connector, plug the male connector into the RS232C port of the meter.

Figure 10: Location of

RS232C

3. Fasten the RS232C connector by fastening the two screws at the side of the male RS232C connector.

4 CALIBRATION

4.1 Important Information on Meter Calibration

When you re-calibrate your meter, previous pH and Relative mV calibration points are replaced on a point by point basis. For example, if you previously calibrated your meter at pH 4.01, 7.00, and 10.01, and you have now re-calibrated at pH 7.00, the meter retains the old calibration data at pH 4.01 and pH 10.01. To view current calibration points, see section 9.3 - P2.0: Viewing Previous Calibration Data on page

38.

To completely re-calibrate your meter, or when you use a replacement probe, it is best to set the meter to its factory defaults and re-calibrate the meter at all points. To reset the meter to its factory defaults, see section 9.6.2 - User Reset on page 43.

4.2 Preparing the Meter for Calibration

Before starting calibration, make sure you are in the correct measurement mode. When you switch on the meter, the meter starts up in the units last used. For example, if you shut the meter off in “mV” units, the meter will read “mV” units when you switch the meter on.

Be sure to remove the protective electrode storage bottle or rubber cap of the electrode before calibration or measurement. If the electrode has been stored dry, wet the electrode in tap water for 10 minutes before calibrating or taking readings to saturate the pH electrode surface and minimise drift.

Wash your electrode in deionised water after use, and store in electrode storage solution. If storage solution is not available, use pH 4.01 or 7.00 buffer solution.

Do not reuse buffer solutions after calibration. Contaminants in the solution can affect the calibration, and eventually the accuracy of the measurements. See section 15.3 Calibration Solutions on page 67 for information on our high-quality pH buffer solutions.

It is recommended that you perform at least a 2-Point Calibration using standard buffers that adequately cover the expected measurement range prior to measurement. 1-Point Calibration can also be used for quick measurements. Make sure that the calibration point is close to the sample value to be measured.

Instruction Manual CyberScan pH 11 / 110

4.2.1 pH 11 meter calibration

The pH 11 meter is capable of up to 5-point pH calibration to ensure accuracy across the entire pH range of the meter. You can select from the following buffer options:

• USA buffers --- pH 1.68, 4.01, 7.00, 10.01, and 12.45.

• NIST buffers --- pH 1.68, 4.01, 6.86, 9.18, and 12.45.

4.2.2 pH 110 meter calibration

The pH 110 meter features four separate internationally recognised buffer standards. Select the buffer standard you require in section 9.2.2 - P1.2: Select Calibration Buffer Options on page 35.

This meter is capable of up to 6-point pH calibration, depending on the buffer standard selection. You can select from the following buffer options:

• USA buffers --- pH 1.68, 4.01, 7.00, 10.01, and 12.45.

• NIST buffers --- pH 1.68, 4.01, 6.86, 9.18, and 12.45.

• DIN buffers --- pH 1.09, 3.06, 4.65, 6.79, 9.23, and 12.75.

• PWB (Low Ionic): pH 4.10 and 6.97

The meter automatically recognises and calibrates to these standard buffer values, which makes pH calibration faster and easier.

Instruction Manual CyberScan pH 11 / 110

4.3 pH Calibration with ATC

NOTE: We recommend that you perform at least 2-point calibration using standard buffers that bracket (one above and one below) the expected sample range.

1. If necessary, press the MODE key to select pH mode. The pH indicator appears in the upper right hand corner of the display.

MEAS

2. Rinse the probe thoroughly with de-ionised water or a rinse solution. Do not wipe the probe; this causes a build-up of electrostatic charge on the glass surface.

3. Dip the probe into the calibration buffer. The end of the probe must be completely immersed into the sample. Stir the probe gently to create a homogeneous sample.

4. Press CAL/MEAS key to enter pH calibration mode. The CAL indicator will be shown. The primary display will show the measured reading while the smaller secondary display will indicate the pH standard buffer solution.

5. Wait for the measured pH value to stabilise (The READY indicator will be shown only if it is activated in the set up menu).

6. Press HOLD/ENTER key to confirm calibration. The meter is now calibrated to the current buffer.

This meter is capable of taking measurements with automatic or manual temperature compensation. Automatic temperature compensation only occurs when a temperature sensor is plugged into the meter. If there is no temperature sensor plugged into the meter, the default manual temperature setting is automatically 25.0 °C. You can manually set the temperature to match your working conditions using a separate thermometer.

NOTE: Remove the protective rubber cap or soaker bottle of the electrode before proceeding with measurement. Take care not to exert too much force as this may cause damage to the electrode.

5.1 Automatic Temperature Compensation

For automatic temperature compensation (ATC) simply plug the temperature probe into the meter. The ATC indicator will light up on the LCD.

NOTE: If you are using a temperature probe, the probe

must be submersed in the liquid you are measuring.

11 ELECTRODE CARE

11.1 Electrode Maintenance

pH electrodes are susceptible to dirt and contamination and need to be cleaned regularly depending on the extent and condition of use.

11.1.1 Storage

The best results, always keep the pH bulb wet, preferably in electrode storage solution or pH 4 buffers with 1/100 part of saturated KCl. Other pH buffers or tap water are also acceptable storage media, but avoid storage in de-ionised water. The protective electrode storage bottle or rubber cap filled with the buffer solution provides ideal storage for long periods.

11.1.2 After Use

After measurement is complete, follow the sequence elaborated below for storage.

1. Wash the electrode and reference junction in deionised water.

2. Close the refilling hole by returning its rubber sleeve or stopper cap (Necessary for only refillable electrodes).

3. Store the electrode as mentioned above (Storage section 11.1.1), or as recommended by the manufacturer.

11.1.3 Electrolyte Replacement (for refillable electrodes only)

The reference electrolyte needs to be refilled when the electrode has been used for an extended period, or when the internal electrolyte has dried up. To accomplish this, follow the procedure detailed below.

1. Remove the protective rubber cap or sleeve

2. Remove the protective rubber sleeve to expose the filling port of the electrode. Remove the old reference electrolyte with a syringe and a flexible tube.

3. Fill the new reference electrolyte. Add in fresh electrolyte till the level of refilling port. The reference electrolyte depends on your electrode. Use the solution type recommended for your electrode. Replace the rubber sleeve.

4. Reuse the electrode. Rinse the liquid junction with deionised water and tap dry.

NOTE: If these steps fail to restore normal electrode response, you may attempt to

Instruction Manual CyberScan pH 11 / 110

rejuvenate it. (See section 11.4 on Rejuvenation Procedure).

11.2 Electrode Cleaning

Electrodes that are mechanically intact can be restored to normal performance by one or combination of the following procedures.

a) Salt deposits:

Dissolve the deposit by immersing the electrode in tap water for ten to fifteen minutes. Then thoroughly rinse with deionised water.

b) Oil / Grease Films:

Wash electrode pH bulb in a little detergent and water. Rinse electrode tip with deionised water.

c) Clogged Reference Junction:

Heat a dilute KCl solution to 60-80 °C. Place the sensing portion of the pH electrode into the heated KCl solution for approximately 10 minutes. Allow the electrode to cool while immersed in some unheated KCl solution.

d) Protein Deposits:

Prepare a 1% pepsin solution in 0.1M HCl. Allow the electrode to stand in this solution for five to ten minutes. Rinse the electrode with deionised water.

11.3 Electrode Activation

Generally, if the procedure of storage and maintenance had been closely followed, the electrode can be used immediately. However, should the electrode response become sluggish, it may be possible that the bulb has dehydrated. The bulb can be re-hydrated by immersing the electrode in an ideal storage solution (e.g. buffer pH 4 solution) for 10 to 30 minutes. If this fails, the electrode may require re-activation.

At no time should one touch or rub the glass bulb as this causes the build-up of electrostatic charge.

If the above procedure does not re-activate the electrode to acceptable status, try rejuvenating the electrode by following the procedure outlined below.

Instruction Manual CyberScan pH 11 / 110

11.4 Rejuvenation Procedure

1. Dip and stir the electrode in freon or alcohol for 5 minutes.

2. Leave the electrode in tap water for 15 minutes.

3. Dip and stir the electrode in concentrated acid (e.g. HCl, H2SO4) for 5 minutes.

4. Repeat Step 2.

5. Dip and stir in strong base (NaOH) for 5 minutes.

6. Leave for 15 minutes in tap water.

7. Test with standard calibration buffer solutions.

CAUTION: Proper eyewear and gloves must be worn when preparing these chemicals and performing this operation.

Finally, test with standard calibration buffer solutions to see if the electrode yields acceptable results. You may repeat steps ‘3’ to ‘6’ again for better response (maximum 3 times). If the response does not improve, then the electrode has completed its useful life. Replace with a new electrode.

14 INFORMATION ON pH MEASUREMENT & ELECTRODE

The previous sections of this manual describe the various features of the instrument and practical aspects of its operation. This section provides a general description of pH measurement principles. It also provides tabulations of pH buffer changes with temperature. Lastly, it includes a list of available accessories.

14.1 pH Measurements

14.1.1 Liquid Junction Potential

The liquid - junction potential is the difference in potential created at the liquid - liquid pHase boundary at the electrode tip, due to dissimilar composition of the test solution and the saturated KCl electrolyte. The sign and size of the liquid - junction potential depends upon the composition of the two solutions, the temperature, and the geometry of the type of junction used.

When two solutions of different compositions come into contact, ion diffusion occurs at the point of contact.

When there is a high liquid junction potential, measured values differ greatly from the true value.

14.1.2 Asymmetry Potential

Within the glass electrode is an internal electrode that contains a reference solution of pH 7. When the electrode is placed in a pH 7 solution, the pH values within and outside the electrode are the same, and no potential ought to be produced. In practice, however, an electric potential called asymmetry potential, is generated.

It has been shown that asymmetry potential varies with the pH of the solution in contact with the glass, with age, with temperature, with the shape of the membrane, with the thickness of the membrane, with impurities in the reference solution, and any imperfections in the glass.

In addition, when the glass membrane dries out, the asymmetry potential increases and leads to measurement errors. That is why it is important to keep the glass hydrated prior to use, by soaking the electrode in a buffered solution or tap water. (Do not use deionised water). The purpose of soaking the glass electrode is to obtain a swollen low resistance glass surface and to stabilise the asymmetry potential of the electrode. This swollen surface is generally spoiled by drying, prolonged immersion in dehydrating solutions or chemical attack, such as etching by alkalis or hydrofluoric acid. Hence, it is necessary to work with a well-soaked glass electrode to ensure a constant asymmetry potential.

Instruction Manual CyberScan pH 11 / 110

14.1.3 pH and Temperature

The electromotive force generated in the glass electrode varies with the temperature of the solution. As a result the response of the pH electrode is subjected to variations in temperature. Automatic Temperature Compensation compensates for this variance.

A solution’s temperature dependence varies considerably. Some may show an increase in pH while others a decrease for the same temperature variation. This is why when you are measuring pH values at a particular temperature, even with a pH meter having ATC, you must record the solution’s temperature along with the pH value, or the measurement may be meaningless.

Temperature variation also causes variation in liquid junction potential, asymmetry potential, and the pH value of the reference solution. To reduce these factors, it is important to ensure that the temperature of the standard calibrating solution and the sample solution are the same.

14.2 Use of Standard pH Buffers

Standard pH buffer solutions are used to calibrate or standardise a pH meter before you measure the pH of a sample. They serve as reference standards for the basis of comparison between measurements.

The more common standard buffers are the pH 4.01, pH 7.00 and pH 10.01. The others include pH 1.68 and pH 12.45.

For 1-point calibration, you only need a general pH value. Use a standard buffer of pH 7.00 or a standard buffer whose pH value is close to that of the sample.

2-point calibration is used when you know that the sample is acidic or basic.

• • For acidic sample: use standard buffers of pH 7.00 and pH 4.01

• For basic sample: use standard buffers of pH 7.00 and pH 10.01

3-point calibration is necessary when the sample’s pH is completely unknown. pH

7.00, pH 4.01 and pH 10.01 standard buffers should be used.
