edge® oers a basic operation mode that streamlines measurement conguration for pH and EC measurements and is useful for many routine applications. Basic pH SETUP reduces parameter selection to the basic set. The meter limits calibration to 5 standard pH buers; 6.86, 7.01, 4.01, 9.18 and 10.01 buers. All pH measurements will display, log and export with 0.01 pH resolution. Interval logging is also eliminated. Manual and Manual medium stability log on demand are still functional. pH CONDITION, RESPONSE graphs are not displayed, giving the display a “Basic” measurement screen with just pH data and temperature. Basic EC reduces specic EC SETUP parameters to 3. The meter defaults settings to common parameters and auto ranges measurements automatically. The Basic EC meter may be used for conductivity and TDS measurements (salinity is not available). Interval logging is also eliminated. Manual and Manual medium stability Log on demand are still functional.

Note

• If powering edge® through the micro USB connector to a PC, a SETUP option will require the choice “LOG ON EDGE” or “EXPORT TO PC“.

• 1000 log records can be stored into edge® memory. This memory is shared between all measurement types (pH, EC, DO) and all logging types (Manual, Manual Stability, Interval logs).

• The maximum number of records for an Interval lot is 600 records (provided log space is available).

• A record is a stored reading and a lot is a group of records.

Each time an Interval log is initiated, a new lot is created. The maximum number of Interval lots that may be stored is 100. If a 101 LOTS” will be displayed. Some lots will need to be deleted. The lot numbering is up to 999 and restarts if all lot logs are deleted. All log on demand and stability log on demand are stored in a single lot. The maximum number of records that may be stored in a Manual or Stability lot is 200 records.

Basic vs Standard pH Mode

For optimum pH measurements, follow these steps:

1. Understand the benets and features of Standard and Basic Operation.

2. Set up edge® meter by conguring preferences.

3. Calibration

4. Measurement

The “Standard” pH operation includes up to a 5-point buer calibration, use of custom buers, choice of displaying 0.001 pH resolution, use of the full diagnostic features of Calibration Check™ (that includes buers used, probe condition, response time and messages indicating a contaminated buer or pH sensor requiring maintenance during calibration). Additional Sensor Check™ indicators are available if using HI 11311 or HI 12301 pH electrodes. These include a continuous diagnostic to detect if the electrode is broken and at the time of calibration, a diagnostic to indicate the reference junction has been compromised or fouled by sample contamination. The Standard pH operation also includes full logging capability including Interval, Manual log on demand and Manual log on stability.

“Basic” pH operation provides a simplied SETUP menu; there are no decisions to make regarding the pH measurement itself. The meter will display 0.01 pH resolution and permit a 3-point buer calibration from the following pH buers;

4.01, 6.86, 7.01, 9.18 or 10.01. Calibration Check™ and Sensor Check™ features are limited to messages during calibration. Calibration reminders are also not available. The GLP will still provide oset, slope, buers used and a calibration date. The Basic pH operation includes Manual log on demand and Manual log on stability (medium setting).

Calibration in Standard Mode

pH operation in standard mode oers full function of edge®. This includes seven standard buers and two custom ones. Five pH buers may be used for calibration.

The instrument should be recalibrated whenever:

• High accuracy and sensor verication are required.

• The pH electrode is replaced.

• At least once a week.

• After testing aggressive chemicals.

• If ”CAL DUE” is displayed on the third LCD line.

pH Calibration

Every time you calibrate the instrument use fresh buers and perform electrode maintenance as required. It is advised to choose calibration buers that bracket the sample pH.

Calibration

Preparation

Pour small quantities of the buer solutions into clean beakers. If possible, use plastic to minimize any EMC interferences. For accurate calibration and to minimize cross-contamination, use two beakers for each buer solution; one for rinsing the electrode and one for calibration. If you are measuring in the acidic range, use pH 7.01 or 6.86 as the rst buer and pH 4.01 (or 3.00*) as the second buer. If you are measuring in the alkaline range, use pH 7.01 or 6.86 as rst buer and pH 10.01 or 9.18 as the second buer.

* pH 3.00 is only visible when using specic pH electrodes and will replace 4.01 pH buer.

Procedure

Calibration can be performed using up to ve calibration buers. For accurate measurements, a minimum of a three-point calibration is recommended. The calibration buer can be selected from the calibration buer list that includes the custom buers and the standard buers:

pH 1.68, 4.01 (pH 3.00), 6.86, 7.01, 9.18, 10.01 and 12.45.

The custom buers allow the user to calibrate in a buer solution dierent from a standard one. Two custom buers can be set in SETUP menu. See page 23 for more information about using custom buers.

The instrument will automatically skip custom buers which are in a ±0.2 pH window of an already calibrated buer.

Submerse the pH electrode approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into a buer solution and stir gently. Press CAL to enter calibration.

Operational Guide

The “CAL” tag will appear and the “7.01” buer will be displayed on the third LCD line. If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a dierent buer value. The “ ” along with “STIR” tag will be displayed and “WAIT” will blink on the LCD until the reading is stable.

When the reading is stable and close to the selected buer, “CFM” tag will blink. Press CFM to conrm calibration.

After conrming the rst point, the calibrated value will be displayed on the rst LCD line and the second expected buer value on the third LCD line (i.e. pH

4.01).

www.GlobalTestSupply.com

Rinse and submerse the pH electrode approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into the second buer solution and stir gently. If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a dierent buer value.

The “

” along with “STIR” tag will be displayed and “WAIT” will blink on the LCD

until the reading is stable.

When the reading is stable and close to the selected buer, “CFM” tag will blink. Press CFM to conrm calibration.

Repeat procedure with additional pH buers. A total of ve pH buers can be utilized.

After conrming the last desired buer calibration points, press CAL (or if all ve buer values were calibrated) the instrument will automatically display “SAVING” as it stores information. It will then return to normal measurement mode.

Each time a buer is conrmed, the new calibration data replaces the old data for the corresponding buer or for any buer in the proximity of ±0.2 pH. If current buer has no previous data stored and the calibration is not full (ve buers), the current buer is added to the existing calibration. If the existing calibration is full, the instrument asks which buer to replace.

Press the ARROW keys to select another buer to be replaced. Press CFM to conrm the buer that will be replaced. Press CAL to leave calibration without replacing.

pH Calibration

Note: If the replaced buer is outside the ±0.2 pH window of the calibrated buers, it is possible to select this buer during the next calibration.

Working With Custom Buers

If a custom buer was set in SETUP menu, it can be selected during calibration by pressing the ARROW keys. The “C1” or “C2” tag will be displayed once selected.

Press u if you want to modify the custom buer value. The buer value will start blinking.

Use the ARROW keys to change the buer value. After 5 seconds, the buer value is updated. Press u if you want to change it again.

Operational Guide 23

Calibration

Note: Custom buer values can be adjusted ±1.00 pH around the set value during calibration. When a custom buer is displayed, the “C1” or “C2” tag is displayed.

First Calibration Point

When performing a new calibration, or adding to an existing one, the user has a choice of how the rst new calibration point will be treated in reference to the existing calibration point. This is selected in SETUP by the option FIRST CALIBRATION POINT. The two SETUP selectable options are “POINT” or “OFFSET”.

Point: A buer value can be recalibrated and added to the previous calibration set. The electrode slope of the other calibration points will be reevaluated with the recalibrated buer value.

Oset: The new buer calibration point can create a constant oset to all existing pH calibration data (existing calibration must have a minimum of two pH buers) . Recalibrating a pH sensor or adding to an existing calibration is simple and follows the PROCEDURE outlined on page 22.

Press CAL. Place sensor in desired buer and select buer from choices. When sensor has equilibrated, the CFM tag will turn on and blink. Press the CFM key.

Press CAL to escape the calibration. Alternately continue calibrating in additional buers. The latest calibration point will be added to the existing data. GLP will reect the latest calibration data. Older calibration buers will be seen as blinking buers.

Note: Each time a buer is conrmed, the new calibration data replaces the old data for the corresponding buer or for any buer in the proximity of ±0.2 pH. If the current buer has no previous data stored and the calibration has not used ve buers, the current buer is added to the existing calibration. If the existing calibration is full, the instrument asks which buer to replace.

Operational Guide

Note: When using Standard mode, the user can choose if they want the display to show the CONDITION and RESPONSE gauges on the display. These are part of the Cal Check™ system and are selected in SETUP by the option INFORMATION. The choice is ON or OFF.

Electrode Condition and Electrode Response Time

edge® pH Calibration Check™ feature will assess electrode condition and response time during each calibration and display it for the rest of the day.

The condition gauge shows the electrode’s condition that is based on the oset and slope characteristics of the pH electrode at the time of calibration. The response gauge is a function of the stabilization time between the rst and second calibration buers, when calibration is performed between a pair of

4.01, 7.01, or 10.01 buers. These gauges reect the electrode’s performance and should be expected to slowly decrease over the life of the electrode .

www.GlobalTestSupply.com

If the instrument is not calibrated the calibration history has been deleted, or it has been calibrated only at one point, the electrode condition and the electrode response gauges will be empty.

For a continuous display of the electrode’s condition and response, daily calibration is necessary. This information can also be viewed in the GLP data.

Junction Condition (HI 11311 and HI 12301 Only)

edge’s pH Sensor Check™ feature assess the health of the pH electrode’s reference junction during each calibration. The junction gauge may be viewed directly in GLP but will also blink a warning on the display if the junction is compromised (not 100%). Should this happen, the junction condition will appear on the display with the junction blinking. The Junction Condition is a function of the electrode’s reference impedance which should be kept low. If the reference junction becomes fouled from a precipitate or coating, the impedance will rise and cause the pH measurement to drift. This diagnostic feature serves as a warning to clean the sensor.

pH Calibration

Calibration in Basic Mode Procedure

Basic mode operation permits up to three-point buer calibration. For accurate measurements, at least a two-point calibration is recommended. However, a single point calibration can also be used. The calibration buers can be selected from the calibration buer list that includes the standard buers, pH 4.01, 6.86, 7.01, 9.18 and 10.01.

Three-Point Calibration

Submerse the pH electrode approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into a buer solution and stir gently. Press CAL. The “CAL” tag will appear and the “7.01” buer will be displayed on the third LCD line. If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a dierent buer value.

If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a dierent buer value.

The “ ” along with “STIR” tag will be displayed and “WAIT” will blink on the LCD until the reading is stable.

Operational Guide

When the reading is stable and close to the selected buer, the “CFM” tag will blink. Press CFM to conrm calibration.

At the end of calibration the instrument displays “SAVING”, stores the calibration value and returns to normal measurement mode.

The calibration sequence may be reduced to two buer values or a single one. Press CAL to return to measurement mode after the desired number of buers have been calibrated.

Note:

• When performing a new calibration or adding to an existing calibration the rst calibration point will be treated as an oset. See page 24 for details.

• Press CAL after the rst or second calibration point are conrmed and the instrument will store the calibration data. Then it will return to measurement mode.

• If the value measured by the instrument is not close to the selected buer, “WRONG BUFFER” will blink. Check if the correct buer has been used or selected.

www.GlobalTestSupply.com

• If the buer temperature exceeds the temperature limits of the buer, “WRONG BUFFER TEMPERATURE” will be displayed.

• Press CLR after entering calibration to clear previous calibrations stored on probe. “CLEAR CALIBRATION” message will be displayed. Press CFM. The instrument will return to measurement mode displaying the “CAL DUE” message.

• If measured value diers more than expected “CHECK ELECTRODE CHECK BUFFER“ will be displayed. Take appropriate action, cleaning the probe if necessary or refreshing the pH buer.

pH Buer Temperature Dependence

Calibration buers are aected by temperature. During calibration with standard pH buers (not Custom), the instrument will display the pH buer value at 25 ºC, however, it will use the appropriate value for that buer at the temperature of the buer for the calibration. Immediately after exiting calibration, the buer will read its value at the temperature of measurement.

Calibration Messages

The Calibration Check™ feature may ag diagnostic messages during a calibration. As electrode aging is normally a slow process, substantial changes from previous calibrations are likely due to a temporary problem with the probe or buers that can be addressed easily. These messages are seen in Standard and Basic modes.

Wrong Buer

This message appears when the dierence between the pH reading and the value of the selected buer is too great. If this error message is displayed, check if you have selected the proper calibration buer and have poured the desired buer.

Operational Guide 27

Calibration

Messages

Wrong Old Points Inconsistency

“WRONG OLD POINTS INCONSISTENCY” is displayed if the new calibration diers signicantly from the last value of that probe in that buer. In this case it may be best to clear the previous calibration and attempt a new calibration with fresh buers.

To clear calibration information, press CAL then press CLR. The “CLEAR CALIBRATION” message will be displayed. Either press the CFM key and clear all calibration information or press CAL to exit. The probe may retain a single point calibration if rst point was accepted.

Once calibration information is cleared, the message “CAL DUE” will be displayed

Clean Electrode

“CLEAN ELECTRODE” indicates poor electrode performance (oset out of accepted window, or slope under the accepted lower limit). Often, cleaning the probe will improve the pH electrodes response. See pH Electrode Conditioning and Maintenance for details. Repeat calibration after cleaning.

Check Electrode Check Buer

“CHECK ELECTRODE CHECK BUFFER” appears when electrode slope exceeds the highest accepted slope limit. You should check your probe and use fresh buer. Cleaning may also improve this response.

Operational Guide

Bad Electrode

“BAD ELECTRODE” appears if the cleaning procedure performed as a result of the above two messages is found to be unsuccessful. In this case it is advised to replace the probe.

Wrong Buer Temperature

“WRONG BUFFER TEMPERATURE” appears if the temperature of the buer is outside the dened buer temperature range. The calibration buers are aected by temperature changes in a dened manner.

During calibration, the instrument will automatically calibrate to the pH value corresponding to the measured temperature but display it to the value at 25 ºC. Immediately after calibration, the buer should read the value of the buer at the temperature of measurement.

Note: Temperature limits will be reduced to actual sensor specications.

www.GlobalTestSupply.com

Contaminated Buer

“CONTAMINATED BUFFER” appears in order to alert that the buer could be contaminated. Refresh your buer and continue the calibration procedure.

Broken Temperature Sensor

If the temperature sensor should malfunction or break at any time, a temperature of “25.0 ºC” will blink on the second LCD line and the message “BROKEN TEMPERATURE SENSOR” will appear on the third LCD line after leaving calibration. The calibration will have the compensation at 25 ºC. Replace probe if this occurs.

Note: If this occurs during logging “25 ºC !” will appear in the CSV le.

Calibration Messages

Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) refers to a quality control function used to ensure uniformity of sensor calibrations and measurements. The dedicated GLP key opens a le of the latest calibration information. Use the qp keys to scroll the stored information. This includes the buers used, temperature of the buer, time and date of the last calibration, the sensor serial number and the calculated oset and percent slope. This information is available in Basic and Standard Modes. This information is also included with every data log. Newest calibration points report as a solid number, older calibration data (that is still used) will be displayed blinking.

If calibration has not been performed, the instrument displays a blinking “NO CAL” message.

The pH calibration oset and slope (the GLP slope is the average of the calibration slopes; the percentage is referenced to the ideal slope value at 25 ºC). The condition and response indicators displayed are from the last calibration.

Pressing the qp keys, the last calibration date (yyyy. mm.dd) together with the current reading is displayed.

When an edge® pH probe is connected, the instrument will recognize it and a the cap removal message will be displayed along with “PH”. Press any key to skip the message. The instrument will enter measurement mode. Make sure the electrode has been calibrated before taking measurements.

Rinse the pH sensor with water and a sample if possible. Submerse the electrode tip approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into the sample to be tested and stir sample gently. Allow time for the electrode to stabilize.

The pH is displayed on the rst LCD line and the temperature on the second LCD line. Using the ARROWS, date, time, battery status and oset with slope can be displayed on the third LCD line. If the reading is out of measurement range, the closest full scale value will be displayed blinking on the rst LCD line.

If measurements are taken successively in dierent samples, it is recommended to rinse the electrode thoroughly with deionized water or tap water and then with some of the next sample to prevent cross-contamination. The pH reading is aected by temperature. The temperature eect is compensated for using the temperature sensor inside the probe. The resulting measurement is the actual pH at the temperature of measurement.

Error Messages During Measurement

If the pH or temperature exceeds the limits of the sensor, the message “ELECTRODE OUT OF SPEC” will scroll on the third LCD line. The temperature will continue to be displayed. If temperature exceeds the meter specication of 120 ºC, then “120 ºC” will blink on the display. If interval logging, the message “OUT OF SPEC.” will alternate with the LOG specic message. In both these cases the Log le will indicate a “ºC!” next to the data.

Steps To Optimize EC Measurement

Follow these steps to optimize measurement using an EC probe:

1. Determine what measurement you wish to make with the EC probe. (See below)

2. Determine if Standard or Basic mode is best for your measurement.

3. Connect the Probe and congure your measurement using the SETUP menu.

4. Calibrate the EC probe.

5. Take measurements using an EC probe.

Measurements Available With The EC Probe

The four-ring EC probe may be used for 3 dierent measurement applications with edge®.

• It may be used for temperature compensated or absolute conductivity measurements (with units of μS/cm or mS/cm).

• TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) measurements (a calculated measurement derived from the ionized particles in a sample and the conductivity measurement). This has measurement units of mg/L, ppm or g/L.

• Salinity (not available in basic mode): 3 dierent seawater salinity scales are supported; Practical Salinity (PSU), the Natural Seawater Scales (g/L), and the NaCl %.

The RANGE key is used to change from conductivity to TDS (and to Salinity available in standard mode only).

Basic Versus Standard EC Mode

Standard operation mode allows complete conguration of all options for the measurement of Conductivity, TDS or Salinity measurements. Measurement data can be logged using Manual log on demand, Manual Log on Stability or Interval logs. All logged data can be exported to a thumb drive or PC. Basic operation mode is used for conductivity and TDS measurements. Common default values are used for Cell Factor (C.F.), temperature compensation coecient and TDS conversion factor. Measurement units are user-selectable for TDS. The meter uses continuous auto-ranging to simplify the measurement experience.

Note: GLP will display “Manual” for a standard. Using this calibration technique will erase any previous calibrations done in CAL. Log les will indicate “MANUAL” as standard.

User Selectable EC/TDS Range (Not Available In Basic Mode)

The EC and TDS measurements may be congured in SETUP as AUTO (meaning auto ranging, the measurement automatically nds the correct conductivity or TDS unit and resolution), or it may be congured with a user-selected measurement range and resolution (if you know ahead of time where your samples will fall). If AUTO is selected, the meter will select the scale with the highest possible resolution, but may change in the middle of a series of measurements changing units and displayed resolution.

Note: The selected range is only active during measurements. Auto ranging is used during calibration. If a xed range is selected and during measurement goes beyond the range limits, the full scale value of that range will ash on the display. All log data in the CSV les will be displayed in uS/cm.

EC/TDS

Calibration

General Guidelines

Calibrate the instrument frequently, especially if high accuracy is required. The instrument should be recalibrated:

• Whenever the EC probe is replaced.

• At least once a week.

• After testing aggressive chemicals.

• If “CAL DUE” is displayed on the third LCD line.

Every time you calibrate the instrument use fresh standard and perform electrode maintenance as required. It is recommended to choose a calibration standard that is close to the sample.

Preparation

Pour small quantities of the standard solutions into a beaker. If possible, use a plastic beaker to minimize any EMC interferences. For accurate calibration and to minimize cross-contamination, use two beakers for the standard solution; one for rinsing the probe and one for calibration.

Procedure

Select standard to be used for calibration. 0.00 μS (probe in air) may be used for an oset calibration. This should be done rst. Hanna Conductivity standards are available at 84 μS/cm, 1413 μS/cm, 5.00 mS/cm, 12.88 mS/cm, 80.0 mS/cm,

111.8 mS/cm and are used for the cell factor calibration.

Rinse the probe with calibration solution or deionized water. Shake o excess solution. Submerse the probe in the calibration solution. The sleeve holes must be completely submersed. If possible, center the probe in the beaker away from the bottom or beaker walls.

Raise and lower the probe to rell the center cavity and tap the probe repeatedly to remove any air bubbles that may be trapped inside the sleeve.

Operational Guide

www.GlobalTestSupply.com

Press CAL to enter calibration. The “CAL” tag and the recognized standard value will appear on the third LCD line. If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a dierent standard value. The “

“ along with “STIR” tag will be displayed and “WAIT” will blink on the LCD until the reading is stable.

When the reading is stable and close to the selected standard, “CFM” tag will blink, the message “ SOL STD” and the value will be displayed.

Press CFM to conrm calibration. The instrument displays “SAVING”, stores the calibration values and returns to measurement mode.

Salinity Measurements

Salinity

Measurements

Note:

• These are for determining salinity as they relate to general oceanographic use.

• Practical salinity and the Natural Seawater require a conductivity calibration.

• NaCl % requires a calibration in HI 70371 standard.

PSU - Practical Salinity Units

The practical salinity (S) of seawater relates the ratio of electrical conductivity of a normal seawater sample at 15 ºC and 1 atmosphere to a potassium chloride solution (KCl) with a mass of 32.4356 g/Kg water at the same temperature and pressure.

Under these conditions the ratio is equal to 1, and S=35. The practical salinity scale may be applied to values to through 42 PSU at temperatures between -2 to 35 ºC.

According to the denition, salinity of a sample in PSU (practical salinity units) is calculated using the following formula:

NaCl % Percent Scale

The NaCl % scale is an older salinity scale used for seawater salinity. In this scale 100% salinity is equivalent to roughly 10% solids. High percentages were made by evaporation. To display NaCl in % units, enter SETUP and select NaCl% unit. Press the RANGE key until “NaCl%” is displayed on the LCD. The instrument will display the NaCl% reading on the rst LCD line and the temperature reading on the second LCD line.

If the reading is out of range, the full-scale value (400.0%) will be displayed blinking.

If this occurs during a log, a “!“ will be placed next to the measurement unit. Data found in the CSV les with a “!“ should not be considered reliable.

Natural Sea Water Scale

The Natural Sea Water Scale extends from 0 - 80.0 g/L. It determines salinity based upon a conductivity ratio of sample to “standard seawater” at 15 °C.

Dissolved

Oxygen

Setup

Steps To Optimize

1. Determine if Concentration or % Saturated measurements will be made.

2. Prepare the Dissolved Oxygen (DO) probe for measurement.

3. Connect the probe to the meter and congure the SETUP parameters.

4. Calibrate the DO sensor.

5. Take measurements using the DO sensor.

Measurements Available

Concentration measurements in water, and % oxygen-saturated measurements are available using edge® together with HI 764080 DO probe. Algorithms used for concentration measurements (units of ppm or mg/L) are based upon the oxygen solubility in air-saturated fresh water. Compensation for salinity and altitude are made by conguring SETUP options. Percent saturation measurements are based upon the partial pressure of oxygen and are suitable for measurement in samples other than air-saturated fresh water. It is advised to check material compatibility of the probe with the sample.

DO Probe Preparation

CAUTION: Use care during servicing and use. The HI 764080 contains a glass insulator. Do not drop or handle carelessly.

Probes from Hanna Instruments are shipped dry.

1. Carefully remove the cardboard shipping tube used to protect the probe during shipping. Save the tube, should the probe be stored dry again.

2. Open membrane package and remove one O-ring and one membrane cap.

3. Rinse the membrane cap with a small amount of HI7041 electrolyte and discard.

4. Position o-ring in cap as indicated. Rell membrane cap 3/ full with electrolyte solution, ensure to cover the o-ring.

5. Holding the membrane cap by the top, tap the side walls of the membrane cap to dislodge gas bubbles and force them to rise to the surface. Do not tap on the membrane directly as it may damage it.

6. With the probe facing down, slowly screw the cap counterclockwise until completely tightened. Electrolyte will overow.

7. Rinse outer body of the probe and inspect membrane for entrapped gas bubbles. The cathode area should be free of bubbles.

8. Connect the DO probe to edge® meter and turn meter on.

9. Allow probe conditioning (polarizing) function to occur.

During this process, the following message will be displayed on the LCD, “DISSOLVED OXYGEN PROBE CONDITIONING”.

The conditioning message will be displayed for about 60 seconds while the DO probe is conditioned. If the probe was conditioned and a new conditioning is not necessary, press any key to enter measurement mode.

Operational Guide

www.GlobalTestSupply.com

The probe is polarized with a xed voltage of approximately 800 mV between the cathode and anode. Probe polarization is essential for stable measurements. With the probe properly polarized, oxygen is continually consumed as it passes through gas permeable PTFE membrane.

If polarization is interrupted, the electrolyte solution continues to be enriched with oxygen until it reaches an equilibrium with the surrounding solution. Whenever measurements are taken with a non-polarized probe, the measurement will be drifty and inaccurate. The measurement will jump when the probe is moved.

Note: When not in use and during polarization, use the protective transparent cap.

Concentration measurements of dissolved oxygen change depending on atmospheric pressure. A convenient way to estimate atmospheric pressure eects is by the related parameter of elevation (m) above or below sea level. Enter altitude in meters closest to the actual altitude to ensure the most accurate calibration and concentration measurement.

Dissolved oxygen solubility decreases if water contains salts. Selecting this factor as to be close to your known salt level, will improve the accuracy of DO concentration calibration and measurement.

Salinity and Altitude Compensation

Temperature, altitude and salinity compensation are used for DO concentration measurements (ppm or mg/L). When the water is colder, it can hold more dissolved oxygen, when it is warmer it holds less oxygen. Compensation for temperature-related solubility is done automatically using the built-in temperature sensor within the DO probe and algorithms in edge®. When water is measured at an altitude below sea level, oxygen solubility increases, but above sea level the oxygen solubility decreases. To compensate for this during calibration and measurement, the user must provide the approximate altitude (in meters) in the SETUP menu. The settings are in 100 m increments; select the value closest to the actual altitude. Some examples of altitudes around the world follow:

Location Meter Feet

Sebkha paki Tah, Morocco -55 -180

Lake Frome, Australia -6 -20

Netherlands, coastal providence -1 to -7 -3 to -23

Lake Michigan, USA 176 577

Lake Geneva; France, Switzerland 372 1220

Denver, CO USA 1609 5279

Mount Everest 8848 29029

The solubility of oxygen in water is also inuenced by the amount of salt the water contains. Seawater typically has a salinity of 35 g/L and the oxygen solubility is 18 % less compared to fresh water at 25 °C. By entering the approximate salinity value, the calibration and subsequent concentration measurement will be compensated to display the correct oxygen concentration. A 18 % error would result if the salinity value is not entered.

Dissolved Oxygen Meter Conguration

Note: Salinity and Altitude have no eect on % oxygen solubility range.

When water is fresh, containing no sea water, the concentration of oxygen will be at a maximum. The solubility of the oxygen dissolved in water is decreased when water is brackish or seawater. The solubility of oxygen in water is decreased when measurements are made at elevations above sea level.

Before proceeding with the calibration, make sure the probe is ready for measurements (see page 46), i.e. the membrane cap is lled with electrolyte, the probe is connected to the meter and properly polarized. For an accurate calibration, it is recommended to wait at least 15 minutes to ensure conditioning of the probe. Keep the protective cap on during polarization time and remove it for calibration and measurements. Follow the calibration procedure. Calibrate the probe frequently, especially if high accuracy is required. The probe can be calibrated at 2 points: 100.0 % (slope calibration) and 0.0 % (zero calibration).

Initial Preparation

Prepare a fresh bottle of HI 7040 by following package directions. Use solution within one month of preparation. Pour small quantities of HI 7040 Zero Oxygen solution into a beaker. If used, remove the protective cap from the DO probe.

Measurements

Operational Guide

Make sure that the probe is polarized, calibrated and the protective cap has been removed. Rinse probe. Submerse the probe in the sample to be tested, make sure temperature probe is also immersed. Allow reading to stabilize.

Note: The sample should be stirred when taking a reading.

The Dissolved Oxygen value (in %) is displayed on the rst LCD line and the temperature on the secondary LCD line.

Press RANGE to change the reading from % to ppm (mg/L) and vice versa.

Oxygen is consumed during the measurement. For accurate DO measurements, water movement of 0.3 m/s is suggested. This is to ensure that the oxygendepleted membrane surface is constantly measuring a representative sample. The use of a magnetic stirrer is recommended. The probe has a built-in temperature sensor. Make sure it is also in sample. The measured temperature is indicated on the second LCD line as shown on page 52. Allow the probe to reach thermal equilibrium before taking any measurement. This can take several minutes. The greater the dierence between the temperature at which the probe was stored and the temperature of the sample, the longer the time will be.

If the DO temperature exceeds the limits of the probe, the message “PROBE OUT OF SPEC” will scroll on the third LCD line and LCD will display dashes. If the temperature exceeds the meter specication 120 ºC, then “120 ºC” will blink on the display. If interval logging, the message “OUT OF SPEC.” will alternate with the Log specic messages in both of these cases. The Log le will indicate “ºC!” next to the data. In the case the temperature sensor is damaged, “BROKEN TEMPERATURE SENSOR” will be displayed and the temperature will display “----” along with the unit tag blinking on the second LCD line. The Log le will indicate “ºC!!” next to the data.

pH Probe

Maintenance

Remove the protective cap of the pH electrode. DO NOT BE ALARMED IF SALT DEPOSITS ARE PRESENT. This is normal with electrodes. They will disappear when rinsed with water.

During transport, tiny bubbles of air may form inside the glass bulb aecting proper functioning of the electrode. These bubbles can be removed by “shaking down” the electrode as you would do with a glass thermometer. If the bulb and/ or junction is dry, soak the electrode in HI 70300 or HI 80300 storage solution for at least one hour.

For rellable electrodes: If the lling solution (electrolyte) is more than 2½ cm (1”) below the ll hole, add HI 7082 or HI 8082 3.5M KCl Electrolyte Solution for double junction electrodes.

Unscrew the ll hole cover during measurements so the liquid reference junction maintains an outward ow of electrolyte.

Measurement

Rinse the electrode tip with distilled water. Submerse the tip 3 cm (1¼”) in the sample and stir gently for a few seconds. For a faster response and to avoid cross-contamination of the samples, rinse the electrode tip with a few drops of the solution to be tested, before taking measurements.

Storage Procedure

To minimize clogging and ensure a quick response time, the glass bulb and the junction should be kept moist and not allowed to dry out.

Maintenance

www.GlobalTestSupply.com

Replace the solution in the protective cap with a few drops of HI 70300 or HI 80300 Storage Solution or, in its absence, Filling Solution (HI 7082 or HI 8082 for double junction electrodes). Follow the preparation procedure before taking measurements.

Note: NEVER STORE THE ELECTRODE IN DISTILLED OR DEIONIZED WATER.

Periodic Maintenance

Inspect the electrode and the cable. The cable used for connection to the instrument must be intact and there must be no points of broken insulation on the cable or cracks on the electrode stem or bulb. Connectors must be perfectly clean and dry. If any scratches or cracks are present, replace the electrode. Rinse o any salt deposits with water. For rellable electrodes: Rell the reference chamber with fresh electrolyte (HI 7082 or HI 8082 for double junction electrodes). Allow the electrode to stand upright for 1 hour. Follow the Storage Procedure above.

Cleaning Procedure

Use diagnostic messages to aid pH electrode troubleshooting. Several cleaning solutions are available:

• General – Soak in Hanna HI 7061 or HI 8061 General Cleaning Solution for approximately ½ hour.

• Protein –Soak in Hanna HI 7073 or HI 8073 Protein Cleaning Solution for 15 minutes.

• Inorganic – Soak in Hanna HI 7074 Inorganic Cleaning Solution for 15 minutes.

• Oil/grease – Rinse with Hanna HI 7077 or HI 8077 Oil and Fat Cleaning Solution.

pH Probe Maintenance

Note: After performing any of the cleaning procedures, rinse the electrode thoroughly with distilled water, rell the reference chamber with fresh electrolyte (not necessary for gel-lled electrodes) and soak the electrode in HI 70300 or HI 80300 Storage Solution for at least 1 hour before taking measurements.

EC Probe

Maintenance

Rinse the probe with clean water after measurements. If a more thorough cleaning is required, remove the probe sleeve and clean the probe with a cloth or a nonabrasive detergent. Make sure to reinsert the sleeve onto the probe properly and in the right direction. After cleaning the probe, recalibrate the instrument.

The insulator used to support the platinum rings is made of glass. Use extreme caution when handling this probe.

Maintenance

www.GlobalTestSupply.com

The DO probe body is made of PEI. A temperature sensor provides temperature measurements of the sample. Use the protective cap when the probe is not in use. To replace the membrane or rell with electrolyte, proceed as follows:

For a new probe, remove the protective shipping tube by gently twisting and pulling it o the body of the probe (see g. 1).

If the membrane was previously installed, unscrew the membrane cap by turning it clockwise (see g. 2).

The new membrane cap should be rinsed with electrolyte solution. Rell with clean electrolyte solution.

Gently tap the sides of the membrane cap to ensure that no air bubbles remain trapped. Do not tap the bottom directly with your nger, as this will damage the membrane.

Make sure that the rubber O-ring sits properly inside the membrane cap. With the sensor facing down, slowly screw the membrane cap clockwise. Some electrolyte will overow.

Dissolved Oxygen Probe Maintenance

The platinum cathode (DO Probe Diagram, page 47) should always be bright and untarnished. If it is tarnished or stained, the cathode should be cleaned. You can use a clean lint-free cardboard or cloth. Rub the cathode very gently side to side 4-5 times. This will be enough to polish and remove any stains without damaging the platinum tip. Afterwards, rinse the probe with deionized or distilled water and install a new membrane cap using fresh electrolyte and follow DO Probe Preparation page 46.

Important

In order to have accurate and stable measurements, it is important that the membrane surface is in perfect condition. This semipermeable membrane isolates the sensor elements from the environment but allows oxygen to enter. If any dirt is observed on the membrane, rinse carefully with distilled or deionized water. If imperfections still exist, or any damage is evident (such as wrinkles or tears-holes), the membrane should be replaced. Make sure that the O-Ring sits properly in the membrane cap.
