If measurements are taken successively in different 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 affected by temperature. In order to measure the pH accurately, this temperature effect must be compensated for. To use the Automatic Temperature Compensation feature, connect and submerse the HI 7662 temperature probe into the sample as close to the electrode as possible and wait for a few minutes.

ATC

If the temperature of the sample is known, manual compensation can be performed by disconnecting the temperature probe.

MTC

The display will show the last recorded temperature reading with the “°C” symbol blinking.

The temperature can now be adjusted with the ARROW keys (from

-20.0 ºC to 120.0 ºC).

ORP MEASUREMENTSORP MEASUREMENTS

ORP MEASUREMENTS

ORP MEASUREMENTSORP MEASUREMENTS

An optional ORP electrode must be used to perform ORP measurements (see Accessories).

Oxidation-Reduction Potential (REDOX) measurements provide the quantification of the oxidizing or reducing power of the tested sample.

The surface of the ORP electrode must be clean and smooth in order to obtain an accurate measurement.

Pretreatment solutions are available to condition the electrode and speed up the response time.

• The instrument automatically defaults to the mV measurement mode if HANNA P type ORP electrode is detected.

• Submerse the ORP electrode tip (3 cm/1¼”) into the sample. Allow a few minutes for the reading to stabilize.

• The instrument displays the mV reading on the primary LCD.

• If the reading is out of range, the closest full-scale value will be displayed blinking on the primary LCD.

Connect the HI 7662 instrument on. Dip the temperature and allow the reading on the secondary LCD to stabilize.

Calibrate the instrument frequently, especially if high accuracy is required. For best results and constant display of electrode condition and electrode response on the bar graph gauges, daily calibration is recommended.

The instrument should be recalibrated:

• Whenever the pH electrode is replaced.

• At least once a day.

• After testing aggressive chemicals.

• If high accuracy is required.

• If “CAL DUE” message is displayed during measurement.

Every time you calibrate the instrument use fresh buffers and perform an electrode cleaning procedure (see page 36).

Pour small quantities of the buffer solutions into clean beakers. If possible, use plastic or glass beakers to minimize any EMC interferences.

For accurate calibration and to minimize cross-contamination, use two beakers for each buffer solution. One for rinsing the electrode and one for calibration.

PROCEDUREPROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

PROCEDUREPROCEDURE

Calibration can be performed at up to five points. For accurate measurements a three point calibration is recommended. Calibration can be performed using the seven memorized buffers:

• pH 1.68, 4.01, 6.86, 7.01, 9.18, 10.01 and 12.45.

FIVE-POINT CALIBRATIONFIVE-POINT CALIBRATION

FIVE-POINT CALIBRATION

FIVE-POINT CALIBRATIONFIVE-POINT CALIBRATION

For most applications it is recommended that pH 7.01 or 6.86 buffers be used as the first calibration point and pH 4.01 (for acidic samples) or pH

9.18/10.01 (for alkaline samples) as the second calibration point.

Note: The pH 12.45 buffer is not for general measurement; use only if

the sample is very alkaline to avoid sodium error.

• Submerse the pH electrode and the temperature probe approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into a buffer solution and stir gently. The temperature probe should be close to the pH electrode.

• Press the CAL key. “CAL” and “pH” tags will be on, and the “CLEAR CAL if new electrode” tag will blink.

CAL

CLEAR CAL if new electrode

• Press the CLR key if you are using a new electrode or want to clear

the calibration history. The instrument will display the “donE” message for a few seconds.

• Press the CAL key, or wait a few seconds to continue.

It is very important to clear the calibration history when a new electrode is used because all error and warning messages that appear during calibration depend on the calibration history.

Note: • The “CLEAR CAL if new electrode” will only appear if the

instrument has been previously calibrated.

• The “CAL”, “pH” and “BUFFER” tags will appear and the “7.01” buffer will be displayed on the secondary LCD.

• If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a different buffer value.

• The “ ” tag will blink until the reading has stabilized.

• When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer, the “CFM” tag will blink and if enabled, an audible signal will sound.

• Press the CFM key to confirm the calibration. The calibrated value will be displayed on the primary LCD and the second expected buffer value on the secondary LCD.

• After the first calibration point is confirmed, submerse the pH electrode and the temperature probe approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into the second buffer solution and stir gently. The temperature probe should be close to the pH electrode.

• If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a different buffer value.

Note: The instrument will automatically skip the buffer used for the first

point. It also skips 6.86 if 7.01 was used, and vice versa. Likewise, it will skip 9.18 if 10.01 has been used, and vice versa.

• The “ ” tag will blink on the LCD until the reading is stable.

• When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer the “CFM” tag will blink.

• Press CFM to confirm calibration.

• The calibrated value is then displayed on the primary LCD and and the third expected buffer value on the secondary LCD.

• After the second calibration point is confirmed, submerse the pH electrode and the temperature probe approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into the next buffer solution and stir gently. The temperature probe should be close to the pH electrode.

• If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a different buffer value.

• The “ ” tag will blink on the LCD until the reading is stable.

• When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer the “CFM” tag will blink.

• Press CFM to confirm calibration.

• After the third calibration point is confirmed, submerse the pH electrode and the temperature probe approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into the next buffer solution and stir gently. The temperature probe should be close to the pH electrode.

• If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a different buffer value.

• The “ ” tag will blink on the LCD until the reading is stable.

• When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer the “CFM” tag will blink.

• Press CFM to confirm calibration.

• After the fourth calibration point is confirmed, submerse the pH electrode and the temperature probe approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into the next buffer solution and stir gently. The temperature probe should be close to the pH electrode.

• If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a different buffer value.

• The “ ” tag will blink on the LCD until the reading is stable.

• When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer the “CFM” tag will blink.

• Press CFM to confirm calibration.

• The instrument stores the calibration value and returns to normal measurement mode.

Two SETUP selectable options are available: “Pnt” and “OFFS”. If the “Pnt” option is selected, the new calibration point overrides an

existing one. The adjacent slopes will be reevaluated. If the “OFFS” option is selected, an electrode offset correction is performed. The adjacent slopes will remain unchanged.

• Proceed as described in “FOUR, THREE or TWO-POINT CALIBRATION” section.

• Press CAL after the first calibration point was confirmed. The instrument will memorize the one-point calibration data and return to measurement mode.

Notes: • To clear calibration parameters for all uncalibrated buffers

starting with current buffer, press CLR. The calibration will continue from the current point. If this procedure is performed while calibrating in the first calibration point, the instrument returns to measurement mode.

• Press RANGE to toggle between pH buffer, calibration buffer number and temperature reading.
