GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION HI 9161
HI 9161 and HI 91610 are advanced portable, printing, thermohygrometers.
These unique, lightweight meters give instant printouts of sample
number, date and time of recording, printing interval, relative
humidity and temperature at user-selectable intervals.
Both RH and temperature are measured with 0.1 resolution.
HI 91610 combines the high accuracy and portability of HI 9161
with extensive printing and logging features and an infrared RS232
data transfer system.
In addition to supplying the user with RH and temperature at the
touch of a button, it also provides datalogging facilities that store
information for transfer to a PC or for retrieval and/or printing at a
later date.
Sophisticated software allocates up to 8000 readings to maximize
available space, regardless of what the logging interval is.
The HI 9200 infrared transmitter is also available as an optional
accessory.
HI 70604/5, RH probe with a 5 m (16.5’) cable is also available for
special applications.
Both models are available in two versions, for °C or °F readings:
• HI 9161C and HI 91610C are thermo-hygrometers with
temperature readings in Celsius
• HI 9161F and HI 91610F are thermo-hygrometers with
temperature readings in Fahrenheit.

OPERATIONAL GUIDE
RELATIVE HUMIDITY MEASUREMENTS
Operations with the HI 9161 and HI 91610 are very simple.
• For accurate measurements, the RH sensor should be exposed to a
current of air moving at 0.5 m (20") per second or more.
• In the absence of air movement, the response can be accelerated
by moving the probe.
• The probe sensor must never come into contact with water
or any other liquid. If this happens, or if condensation causes
drops to form on the surface of the humidity sensor, the instrument must be turned off until moisture has completely evaporated.
To accelerate the evaporation process, expose the humidity sensor
to a current of air.
For any problem in taking measurements, please contact your dealer
or the nearest HANNA Customer Service Center.

TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS
The HI 762L/2 temperature probe supplied with theinstrument is a
liquid/general purpose probe with 2 m (6.6') cable.
Simply plug the probe into the socket located on the top of the meter.
If continuous monitoring of temperature is needed, keep the probe
attached to the meter at all times.
To view either the RH% or temperature read-
ing on the display, press RANGE. The reading
will appear without decimal digit when shown
on the secondary display. The temperature
range on the secondary display goes from 0

will appear indicating that the secondary
display is unable to show the reading.
If no probe or test plug is connected, the
meter will display and print "----" to alert the
user. This could also indicate that the probe
cable is damaged.
HANNA offers a wide range of temperature probes to meet all
application requirements. HANNA HI 762 probe series use highly
sensitive thermistor sensors to provide great accuracy and fast response
(see "Accessories" section for a complete list).

CALIBRATION
All HANNA thermo-hygrometers have been precalibrated at the
factory. HANNA instruments® uses state-of-the-art thermally-isolated
humidity chambers for this purpose.
It is generally recommended to have all thermo-hygrometers recalibrated
at least once a year. For an accurate annual recalibration, contact
your dealer or the nearest HANNA Customer Service Center.
You can also check the calibration status of
your thermo-hygrometer and perform a quick
RH calibration (with an accuracy of ±5%)
by using the HANNA HI 7101 calibration
chamber.
The kit includes two thermally-isolated chambers, each one equipped
with a cap and three bottles containing the appropriate precalibrated
saturated salts to produce a known RH value.

• Seal the chamber well when not in use, as the LiCl solution is
extremely hygroscopic and tends to capture the humidity present
in the air causing the solution to expand in volume and overflow
from the container.

SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTIONS
+
-
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
HI 9161 and HI 91610 are factory programmed to automatically
diagnose a fault and inform the user by displaying an error code on
the LCD.
Error codes are:
PEr0, PEr1, PEr2 = Short circuit on the system, the meter should be
returned for repair. Contact your dealer.
PEr3 = Printer mechanism fault. Contact your dealer.
PEr4 = Printer clutch jammed - reset the printer (see page 31).
PEr9 = Printer jammed - reset the printer (see page 31).
MEMORY ORGANIZATION
(HI 91610 only)
Capacity: 8000 sample data, divided into 16 pages.
Capacity per page: up to 500 data.
Each time a new logging mode is entered, the meter automatically goes
to the next available page. Once all 16 pages are used up, the meter
will overwrite the first lot.
During logging, the meter automatically returns to the oldest page in
the memory and if it contains data, it will overwrite it. In this case the
first log will not correspond to the oldest set of data.
It is recommended to periodically “clean” the memory. Save data into a
PC if you need to keep a record and then remove the batteries for about
1 minute. Remember to reset time and date, once the batteries have
been reinserted.
ATTENTION
If batteries need to be replaced and data is not to be lost, power the
meter through a 12 Vdc adapter before proceeding with battery
replacement.
Once batteries have been changed, the external power supply can be
disconnect without losing the previously memorized data.
When the batteries become weak,
the "LO BAT" indication is displayed
to warn the user.
LO BAT
Battery replacement must only take place in a safe area and using
using four 1.5V AA alkaline batteries.
In order to replace the batteries,
remove the two screws on the rear
cover of the instrument and replace
the four batteries with new ones,
while paying attention to the correct
polarity.

Note: The instrument uses the following configuration.
It is recommended to use the HANNA HI 710005 or HI 710006
voltage adapters with the proper polarity configuration.
HI 9161 and HI 91610 can also be powered through other 12 Vdc
adapters. Always check the correct polarity of the adapter before
connecting it to the meter.

PRINTER MAINTENANCE
CHANGING THE INK CARTRIDGE
When printouts become faint, it might be necessary to change the ink
cartridge. Contact your dealer or the nearest HANNA Office for
technical service.
INSERTING PAPER ROLL
HI 9161 and HI 91610 use plain 38 mm wide paper rolls. To insert
a new roll gently pull out the printer cover.
Take out the used paper cylinder.
Allow about 5 cm (2") of paper to exit from the printer and then
replace the cover.
TO RESET THE PRINTER
Take off the battery compartment
cover by removing the screws on the
back of the meter.
Using a sharp pencil press the black
reset button. This will reset the
printing mechanism.
Before replacing the battery cover,
investigate likely cause of the printer
jam (e.g. the paper might be caught
under the cover preventing the paper from advancing).
Replace the battery cover and
tighten the screws.
