GENERAL DESCRIPTION

HI 9110 is a portable, waterproof pH meter

with a special pH electrode (HI 1048B), which has been designed for application in must and wine analysis. This meter provides simple manual temperature compensation and pH calibration over two points (pH3 and pH7). The calibration trimmers are sealed behind a protective cover, so that they cannot be accidentally moved.

The meter is supplied with:

1048B PTFE junction sleeve, glass-body

• HI pH electrode with BNC connector and 1 m (3.3') cable

• ChecktempC Thermometer

• HI 50003 pH 3.00 buffer, 20 mL sachet

• HI 70007 pH 7.01 buffer, 20 mL sachet

• HI 700635 Cleaning solution for incrusted wine deposits, 20 mL sachet (2 pcs.)

• HI 700636 Cleaning solution for wine stains, 20 mL sachet (2 pcs.)

• 4x1.5V AA alkaline batteries

• calibration screwdriver & instruction manual

• plastic carrying case.

OPERATIONAL GUIDE

Initial preparation

Install the supplied batteries by following the instructions in the "Battery replacement" section.

Connect the HI 1048B pH electrode to the BNC plug on the top of the meter.

Taking measurements

• Turn the instrument ON.

• Remove the electrode protective cap, sub-

merge the tip (4cm/1.5") into the sample to be tested and allow the reading to stabilize.

• Since pH readings are directly affected by temperature, for accurate measurements, follow the instructions for manual temperature compensation. If the temperature of the sample is significally different from that at which the electrode was stored, allow a few minutes to reach thermal equilibrium.

Notes:

• Before taking any measurements:

- make sure the meter is calibrated.

- rinse the electrode thoroughly with some

of the sample to be tested, to avoid cross contamination.

• After use, switch the instrument off, clean the electrode with HI 70635 and/or HI 70636 solution (see "Accessories" section) and then rinse with clean water. Pour a few drops of HI 70300 storage solution in the protective cap and replace it before storing the electrode.

• It is recommended to always keep the electrode wet.

Manual temperature compensation

• Press the "pH/°C SET" key to select the

manual temperature mode.

• Remove the protective cap on

the top of the meter to access the trimmers.

• Measure the temperature of the

solution with the supplied ChecktempC thermometer.

• Using the supplied screwdriver, adjust the

"T" trimmer to display the measured temperature value, e.g. 15.0°C.

• Press the "pH/°C SET" key to return to the

normal measurement mode.

CALIBRATION

• Remove the electrode protective cap and rinse with some pH 7.01 solution.

• Immerse the electrode tip (approximately 4cm/1.5") and the ChecktempC thermometer in pH 7.01 buffer solution.

• Stir gently and wait for the reading to stabilize.

Note: Place the ChecktempC thermometer

close to the pH electrode.

• Record the buffer temperature (e.g. 10°C) and adjust the "T" trimmer accordingly.

• Using the supplied screwdriver, adjust the "pH7" trimmer until the meter displays the pH value at the buffer temperature (see table), e.g. pH 7.07 at 10°C.

• Rinse first with clean water and then with a small amount of pH 3.00 buffer. Dip the electrode and the ChecktempC into the pH 3.00 buffer, stir gently and wait for the reading to stabilize.Record the buffer temperature and adjust the "T" trimmer accordingly.

• Using the supplied screwdriver, adjust the "pH3" trimmer until the meter displays the pH value at the buffer temperature (see table), e.g. pH 3.04 at 10°C.

The calibration is now complete.

Note: Once the calibration procedure is com-

pleted, replace the trimmer cover and tighten it to ensure a watertight seal.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

When batteries become weak, the "V" tag lights up on the display to alert the user that only a few hours of working time is left. If the battery level is low enough to cause erroneous readings, the Battery Error Prevention System (BEPS) turns the meter off. Battery replacement must only take place in a non-hazardous area using 1.5V AA alkaline type. Unscrew the two screws on the meter back, remove the battery compartment cover and replace all the four batteries with new ones, while paying attention to the correct polarity . Reattach the cover and tighten the two screws.
