Remove the instrument from the packing material
and examine it to make sure that no damage
has occurred during shipping. If there is any
damage, immediately notify your dealer.
Each meter is supplied complete with:
• HI 76407/4 DO probe with 4 m (13’) cable
• 2 spare membranes with O-rings
• Protective cap
• HI 7041S electrolyte solution (30 mL)
• Batteries (4 x 1.5V AA)
• Instruction manual
• Rugged carrying case
Note: Save all packing material until you are
sure that the instrument functions
correctly. Any defective items must be
returned in the original packing with the
supplied accessories.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI 9143 and HI 9145 are water-resistant
dissolved oxygen meters designed for harsh
outdoor applications, especially waste water
treatment and fish farming.
Simple on-site calibration requires no chemical
solutions. Just expose the probe to air and
press the CAL button. In a few minutes, the
meter is calibrated and ready to use.
The new and improved HI 9143 and HI 9145
measure and display O2 from 0 to 300%, 0 to
45 mg/L and temperature from 0 to 50 °C.
In addition to the features of HI 9145, HI 9143
also supplies the user with compensation of
salinity and altitude factors.
Both meters compensate for the temperature
effect.

The dissolved oxygen probe is provided with a
membrane covering the polarographic sensor
elements, and a built-in thermistor for temperature measurement and compensation.
The thin permeable membrane isolates the
sensor elements from the testing solution, but
allows oxygen to enter.
When a voltage is applied across the sensor,
oxygen that passes through the membrane
causes a current to flow from which the oxygen
concentration is determined.

All HANNA D.O. probes are shipped dry. To
hydrate the probe and prepare it for use,
connect it to the meter and proceed as follows.
1. Remove the red & black plas-

5. Make sure that the rubber O-ring sits properly inside the membrane cap.
6. With the sensor facing down, screw the
cap clockwise. Some electrolyte will overflow.
When not in use, protect the
membrane with the supplied cap.
