Digital Dissolved Oxygen, Conductivity, TDS and pH Meter
Model DO700
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Extech DO700 meter. For best results, please
read the entire manual before use. The DO700 measures Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Conductivity, pH, mV, and temperature parameters. Conductivity measurements also yield TDS (total dissolved solids), Salinity, and Resistivity readings.
The built-in microprocessor provides automatic calibration, automatic temperature compensation, data storage, and self-diagnostics. The digital filter improves measurement speed and accuracy. The meter offers a backlit LCD display and is dust­proof and waterproof, meeting IP57.
This meter is shipped fully tested and calibrated and, with proper use, will provide years of reliable service.
pH Features
The meter can recognize up to 13 types of pH standard buffer solutions. Two special pH modes (for distilled water and distilled water mixed with ammonia) are provided. These special modes offer general slope compensation and non-linearity solution temperature compensation suitable for the electric power and petrochemical industries.
Conductivity Features
Automatic frequency conversion and voltage regulation increases the Conductivity electrode range (K = 1 to 10 times). One point Conductivity calibration allows measurements from 0 to 100mS/cm. Up to 8 types of Conductivity standards can be recognized.
The meter has an automatic range feature with non-linear temperature compensation for distilled water with Conductivity values lower than 10uS/cm greatly improving accuracy and suitable for the microelectronics and pharmaceutical industries.
Dissolved Oxygen Features
The latest technology DO electrode offers a temperature and salinity sensor with automatic temperature compensation and automatic salinity compensation as well as manual barometric pressure compensation.

Store, Recall, and Clear Datalogger Memory
STORE Readings
The meter can store up to 100 DO, 100 pH, 100 mV, and 100 Conductivity readings for a total of 400 data points. To store a reading, wait until the reading stabilizes (the smiling face icon store a reading. The M+ icon appears and the data point serial number increments.
RECALL Readings
In the measurement mode, press the M+/RM key to recall the most recently stored reading. RM and the data point serial number for the displayed reading will appear on the LCD. The measurement information will appear on the lower right hand side of the LCD. Use the CAL or M+/RM buttons to scroll the remaining stored readings. Press the ENTER key to return to the normal measurement mode.
CLEAR Readings
From the RECALL mode, press and hold the ENTER key for at least five (5) seconds. The LCD display will show ‘CLR’ indicating that all of the stored readings have been erased. The unit will automatically return to the normal measurement mode after approximately 2 seconds.
appears when the reading stabilizes). Press the M+/RM key momentarily to

pH Measurement Mode
Preparation for Measurement
1. Unscrew the protective cap on the probe jack located on the bottom of the meter (store the protective cap in the carrying case for later use).
2. Carefully connect the pH probe to the meter’s probe jack. The probe can only be inserted in one orientation. Once it is firmly connected, screw the probe collar onto the meter to secure the probe.
3. Turn the meter on using the power key
4. Press the MODE key momentarily to switch to the pH mode only if the meter is in the mV mode. Otherwise, the unit of measure should already display pH units.
3-Point Calibration (7.00pH, 4.00pH and 10.01pH)
1. Press the CAL key to enter the Calibration mode. The meter’s display will show a blinking ‘C1’
2. Rinse the probe in distilled water, allow it to dry, and submerge it into a pH 7.00 buffer solution. Stir the solution briefly and allow it to stay in the buffer solution until a stable reading is reached
3. Press CAL again and the display will show a blinking ‘7.00’
4. This portion of the calibration procedure is complete when the display stops blinking and shows the ‘C2’ icon. The unit will automatically switch to the second point of the calibration
5. Rinse the probe in distilled water again, allow it to dry, and submerge it into a pH 4.00 buffer solution. Stir the solution briefly and allow it to stay in the buffer solution until a stable reading is reached
6. Press CAL again and the display will show a blinking ‘4.00’
7. This portion of the calibration procedure is complete when the display stops blinking and shows the ‘C3’ icon. The unit will automatically switch to the third point of the calibration
8. Rinse the probe in distilled water again, allow it to dry, and submerge it into a pH 10.01 buffer solution. Stir the solution briefly and allow it to stay in the buffer solution until a stable reading is reached
9. Press CAL again and the display will show a blinking ‘10.01’
10. After the display stabilizes the 3-point calibration icon will appear
.
1-Point and 2-Point Calibration
A one or two point calibration is acceptable if the expected measurement result is known.
For example, if the expeced pH is 4pH, it is acceptable to perform only a 1-Point Calibration (4pH). If the expected measurement is between 4.00pH and 7.00pH, the user can perform a 2-Point Calibration (4.00 and 7.00pH), and so on.
For a 4pH calibration, only the circled L will appear on the LCD. For a 7.00pH, only the circled M will appear on the LCD. For a 10.01pH Calibration, only the circled H will appear (Low, Medium, and High).
For all other applications, a 3-Point Calibration is recommended. Always perform a 3-Point Calibration on new probes and probes that have been in use for long periods. This maximizes measurement slope linearity.
Press the ENTER key to exit the Calibration mode.

Testing the pH of a Sample
1. Perform the pH Calibratoin as described above
2. Rinse and dry the pH Probe and submerge it in a sample liquid
3. Stir the solution briefly with the probe and allow it to stand until the display stabilizes
4. Note that the closer the temperature of the sample solution to the calibration solution, the more accurate readings

Notes on P2 and P3 Parameters: Measurements of distilled water and distilled water
mixed with ammonia affect the temperature compensation and the slope linearity of the pH probe. Such measurements are sometimes used in the electrical power and petrochemical industries. Set these parameters to ON only if necessary, otherwise leave these parameters in the OFF state.
