GENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI 2400 is a microprocessor-based, logging bench meter for
Dissolved Oxygen measurements.
It can store in memory up to 99 lots with up to 8000 readings. These readings
can be transferred to a computer system for elaboration or permanent storage.
Dissolved Oxygen is indicated in ppm (parts per million) or in %.
Temperature is compensated for by the meter’s ATC circuitry. Salinity compen-
sation in water allows direct determination of Dissolved Oxygen in saline
waters and the altitude compensation readjusts for the altitude variance.
The Dissolved Oxygen probe has a membrane covering the polarographic
sensors and a built-in thermistor for temperature measurements and compensation.
This permeable Teflon®membrane isolates the sensor elements from the testing solution, but allows Oxygen to pass through. When a voltage is applied
across the sensor, oxygen that has passed through the membrane reacts
causing a current flow, and hence determining a reading.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If you are not using Hanna Instruments HI 92000 application software,
please find below some additional information to help your connection to the
PC.
SENDING COMMANDS FROM PC
With terminal programs such as Telix® and Windows Terminal®, it is possible
to remotely control your HI 2400. Use HI 920010 cable to connect the meter
to the PC, start the terminal program and set the communication options as
follows: 8, N, 1, no flow control.
Command Types
To send a command to the D.O. meter the scheme is:
<DLE> <command> <CR>
This line makes the computer send a Data Link Escape character, the command expressed as a number or a 3-character sequence and a CR character.
Note: Windows Terminal® and all the other terminal programs that support
the ANSI escape sequence, represent the DLE character by the string
‘^P’ and the CR character by the string ‘^M’. E.g. the line
‘^PPPM^M’ sets the range to ppm.
Commands not requiring an answer from the meter:
PPMsets the range to ppm D.O.
PERsets the range to % D.O.
PROBE CONNECTION & PREPARATION
To prepare the instrument for use, connect the D.O. probe to the meter
securely by aligning the pins with the socket located on the back of the meter,
pushing the plug in and tightening the threaded ring.
Probes shipped from Hanna Instruments are dry. To hydrate the probe and
prepare it for use, connect it to the meter and proceed as follows:
1. Remove the red and black plastic cap. This cap is
for shipping purposes and can be thrown away.

TURNING THE METER ON
To switch the meter on, press the ON/OFF switch key
and leave the probe in the auto-conditioning (polarization) mode before proceeding. After approximately
5 minutes, the instrument can be calibrated (see
page 12).
If the probe is disconnected, the meter will display “----”.
This also indicates the possibility of a broken probe cable.
PROBE POLARIZATION
The probe is under polarization with a fixed voltage of approximately 800 mV.
Probe polarization is essential for stable measurements with the same recur-
ring degree of accuracy.
With the probe properly polarized, oxygen is continually “consumed” when it
passes through the sensitive diaphragm and dissolves in the electrolyte solution contained in the probe.
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 oxygen
level revealed is both that of the tested solution as well as that present in the
electrolyte solution. This reading is incorrect.
The calibration of this instrument is very simple.
Before proceeding with the calibration, make sure the probe is ready for
measurements (see page 9), i.e. the membrane cap is filled with electrolyte
and 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 precise conditioning of the probe.
Keep the protective cap on during the polarization time and remove it for the
calibration and the measurements.
Follow the calibration procedure on page 12.
The Platinum cathode (#8 in the Functional Descripti on page 4)
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 the steps above. Re-calibrate the instrument.
Important
In order to have accurate and stable measurements, it is important
that the surface of the membrane 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 any 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.

PROBE & MEMBRANE MAINTENANCE
The oxygen probe body is made of reinforced plastic for maximum durability.
A thermistor temperature sensor provides temperature measurements of the
sample. Use the protective probe cap when not in use.
To replace the membrane or refill with electrolyte, proceed as follows:
• Remove the protective cap by gently twisting
and pulling it off the body of the probe (see
fig. 1).
• Unscrew the membrane cap by turning it counterclockwise (see fig.2).
• Wet the sensor by soaking the bottom 2½
cm (1") of the probe in electrolyte (HI 7041S)
for 5 minutes.
• Rinse the new membrane cap (HI 76407A)
supplied with the meter with electrolyte solution while shaking it gently. Refill with clean
electrolyte solution.
• Gently tap the sides of the membrane cap
with your finger tip to ensure that no air
bubbles remain trapped. Do not directly tap
the bottom with your finger as this will damage the membrane.
• Make sure that the rubber O-ringsits properly inside the membrane cap.
• With the sensor facing down, slowly screw the
membrane cap clockwise. Some electrolyte will
overflow.

D.O. MEASUREMENTS (in ppm or %)
Make sure the meter has been calibrated (see page 12) and the protective cap
has been removed.
Salinity and Altitude compensation
If the sample contains significant concentration of salinity or if you are performing measurements at an altitude different from sea level, the readout values
must be corrected, taking into account the lower degree of oxygen solubility in
these situations as explained on pages 18-20.
Remember to set the altitude and/or the salinity before taking any D.O.
measurements. The meter will automatically compensate for these factors.
Taking measurements
Immerse the tip of the probe in the sample to be
tested. Make sure the temperature sensor is also
immersed.
Press the RANGE key to display D.O. measurements. Allow approximately one minute for the
meter to stabilize and read the ppm value of
Dissolved Oxygen on the display.
Press the RANGE key to change the reading from ppm to % and vice-versa.
UNSCREW
fig. 2
For accurate Dissolved Oxygen measurements, a water movement of 0.3 m/sec
is required at a minimum. This is to ensure that the oxygen-depleted membrane surface is constantly replenished. A moving stream will provide adequate circulation.
30
11
The use of a magnetic stirrer to ensure a certain velocity of the fluid is
recommended.
Always allow a few minutes for thermal equilibrium to occur
between the probe and the measurement sample.
TAKING TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS
The probe has a built-in temperature sensor.
The measured temperature is indicated on the secondary display.
Allow the probe to reach thermal equilibrium before taking any measurement.
Reaching thermal equilibrium can take several minutes. The greater the
difference between the temperature at which the probe was stored and the
temperature of the sample, the longer the time will be.
If “----” is displayed, it indicates that the D.O. probe is not properly connected
or the temperature is out of range. This also indicates the possibility of a
broken probe cable.
D.O. CALIBRATION
For greatest accuracy, it is recommended that the instrument is calibrated
frequently.
The standard calibration program of the meter is prepared for 2 (maximum)
values: 0.0% (zero calibration) and 100.0% (slope calibration).
The next logging will start from page 16.
INTERFACE WITH PC
Data transmission from the instrument to a PC is now much easier with the
new HI 92000 Windows® compatible software (optional).
User friendly, HI 92000 offers a variety of features and has on line help to
support you throughout all situations.
To install HI 92000 you need a 3.5" drive and few minutes to follow the
instructions conveniently printed on the disk’s label.
To connect your HI 2400 to a PC, use HI9 20010, available through your
Hanna Dealer. Make sure that your meter is switched off and plug the
connectors, one into the meter RS232C connector, the other into the serial port
of your PC.
Note: Cables different from the HI 920010 may use a different configuration.
In such case any communication between the meter and the PC is not
possible.
logging, the meter will stop the logging
first and then will turn off.
MEMORY ORGANIZATION
The meter is equipped with a stability indicator and the user will be guided
step by step with symbols on the display during the D.O. calibration. This will
make the calibration a simple and error-free procedure.
The zero calibration of the HI 2400 is very stable, therefore this procedure
needs only to be performed whenever the probe or the membrane is
replaced.
However, because the slope calibration is more critical, it is recommended
to perform this procedure every week.
The memory used for storing the logged data is divided into 16 pages. The
capacity of each page is 500 samples. It starts to log from page 16 downwards
until 1 and then 16 again, overwriting the previous data. However, when
this happens the LCD will show page “0”, indicating overwriting has occurred.
Each time a new logging period starts, it automatically starts from a new
page.
When the samples collected for a single lot are more than the limit (8000
samples) the meter will stop logging automatically.
TO CLEAR LOGGED DATA
The entire logged data can be cleared by pressing the ON/OFF switch and the
LOG key simultaneously.
INITIAL PREPARATION
• Pour small quantities of HI 7040 Zero Oxygen
solution into a beaker. If possible, use a plastic
beaker to minimize any EMC interferences.
• Make sure the probe is ready for measurements
(see initial preparation at page 9), i.e. the membrane is filled with electrolyte and the probe is
connected to the meter.
• Switch the meter on by pressing the ON/OFF switch.
• For an accurate calibration, it is recommended to
wait for at least 15 minutes to ensure precise conditioning of the probe.
• Remove the protective cap from the D.O. probe.
• Set the appropriate altitude factor (see page 19).
Make sure the salinity factor is set to zero (see page
18).
ZERO CALIBRATION
• Dip the probe into HI 7040 zero oxygen solution
and stir gently for 2-3 minutes.

TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
The D.O. probe has a built-in sensor for temperature so that the D.O.
readings are automatically compensated for temperature effects.
LOGGING FUNCTION
This function allows the user to log D.O. (in ppm or %) together with the
temperature automatically for long periods of time. All logged data can be
stored into a PC through the RS232C port.
The lot number goes from 1 to 99 and then back to #1. The maximum
capacity per lot is 8000 samples.
Set the appropriate logging interval (see page12). Select between 1, 15, 30
seconds or 1, 5, 30, 60, 120, 180 minutes.
Press the RANGE key first (to select D.O. readings in ppm or in %), then press the LOG and
then CAL key to enter the logging mode.
• Dry the probe tip and allow a few minutes for the LCD readout to stabilize.
The “~” indicator will blink until the reading is stable.
As soon as the reading is stable, the “CFM” indicator will start blinking. Press
the CFM key to confirm the “100.0%” D.O. reading.
• If the reading is not close to the selected value,“WRONG “ and
“WRONG ” will blink alternatively.
Once in the logging mode, the interval cannot be changed.
Exit the logging mode first (by pressing the LOG and then CAL key) before
setting a new interval.
• If the reading is within the margins (±15%), the meter stores the value
(and adjusts the slope point). The calibration is ended and the meter will
then revert to the normal measurement mode.
Note: HI 2400 has automatic buffer recognition function. Press the UP or
DOWN arrow keys to select the desired calibration value, but if these
keys are pressed, the automatic buffer recognition function is disabled.

Press the CAL key at any time to exit the calibration
mode.
TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION
Each meter has been factory calibrated for the temperature with the D.O.
probe supplied and is ready for measurements.
The D.O. probes are interchangeable and no temperature calibration is
needed.
If the temperature measurements are not accurate, the temperature recalibration should be carried out.
For an accurate re-calibration, contact your nearest Hanna Service Center or
follow the procedure below (for technical personnel only).
INITIAL PREPARATION
• Prepare a beaker containing ice(at 0.0°C/32°F) and water and another
one containing hot water (at a temperature of 50.0°C/122°F). Place insulation
material around the container to minimize temperature changes.
• Use a ChecktempC or a calibrated thermometer with a resolution of 0.1°C as a
reference thermometer.
Setting the Buzzer Status
In the View Settings Mode, press the UP or DOWN arrow keys to display the
buzzer status; ON is the factory setting.
Press the CAL key to enter the change setting mode, the buzzer status will
start blinking.
Select the buzzer status (ON or CLR) by pressing the UP or DOWN arrow keys.
PROCEDURE
• Switch the meter on while pressing the CAL key. The “CAL” indicator will
be lit. The secondary LCD section will show “0.0°C”.

Press the CFM key to confirm the buzzer status.
RESET BUTTON
The RESET button is used when the instrument displays erroneous messages
due to strong electrical interference or when the instrument’s power supply
was disconnected before the meter was switched off.
It is necessary to press the RESET button and restart the entire operation.
Calibration points should remain memorized. It is recommended to verify
calibration before proceeding.
The following baud rate can be selected through the UP or DOWN arrow keys:
150, 300, 600, 1200 (factory setting), 2400, 4800 and 9600.
Press the CFM key to confirm the baud rate setting.
Setting the Command Prefix
In the View Settings Mode, press the UP or DOWN arrow keys to display the
command prefix; 16 is the factory setting.
Press the CAL key to enter the change setting mode, the command prefix will
start blinking.
Select a different command prefix (between 0 to 47 decimal) by pressing the
UP or DOWN arrow keys.
• Immerse the D.O. probe in the vessel
with the ice and water.
• Wait for about 30 seconds until the
“CFM” indicator starts blinking. Press
the CFM key. The secondary LCD section will show “50.0°C”.
• Immerse the D.O. probe in the vessel with
hot water.
• Wait for about 30 seconds until the “CFM”
indicator starts blinking. Press the CFM key.
