GENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI 9810 is the most complete and versatile portable pH/EC/TDS
meters ever manufactured. Designed with utmost precision and
simplicity, this meter provides 3 kinds of measurements. The pH, EC
and TDS ranges are easily selected using a membrane keyboard on
the front panel.
The conductivity of a solution depends on the temperature and for this
reason measurements are carried out with reference to a standard
temperature of 25C. If the solution measured has a different temperature than 25C, compensation must be performed.
HI 9810 automatically compensates for temperature changes with a
built-in temperature sensor and circuitry. The temperature coefficient
is fixed at 2%/C.
HI 9810 is designed for simplicity of use in taking pH, µS/cm and
mg/L measurements.

INITIAL PREPARATION
Each meter is supplied complete with a 9V battery. Slide off the
battery compartment cover on the back of the meter (see page 16),
install the battery while paying attention to its polarity.
Connect the probe to the DIN socket on the
top of the meter by aligning the pins with
the socket and pushing in the plug.
Always remove the electrode protective cap before taking any measurements.
Make sure the meter has been calibrated before taking any measurements (see pages 8 and 9 for calibration
procedures).
Turn the meter on by pressing the ON/OFF key.
TAKING PH MEASUREMENTS
If the electrode has been left dry, soak the tip in a pH 7 or pH 4
buffer solution for a few minutes to reactivate it.
TAKING EC/TDS MEASUREMENTS
• Immerse the tip of the electrode (4cm/1½") into the
sample to be tested. If possible, use plastic beakers
or containers to minimize any EMC interference.
• Tap the electrode lightly on the bottom of the
beaker to remove any air bubbles which may be
trapped inside the tip.
• Select the appropriate measurement range (EC or TDS).
• Wait for 1-2 minutes for the temperature sensor to attain thermal
equilibrium. The display will then show the measurement automatically temperature compensated for temperature with the
appropriate indication among the following:
µS symbol indicates the meter is in
µS/cm, EC mode
- No symbol indicates the meter is in TDS
mode.
• To take a pH measurement simply submerge the tip
(4cm/1½") of the combination pH/EC/TDS electrode
into the sample to be tested.
• Select the pH mode .
• Shake the electrode briefly while submerged and allow a couple of minutes
for the electrode to adjust and stabilize.
The display will show the pH value.
• If measurements are taken in different samples successively, it is
recommended to rinse (clean) the electrode thoroughly to eliminate cross-contamination. After cleaning, it is recommended to
rinse the electrode with some of the sample to be measured.
6
Note: If the case of an erroneous reading, the "E" indication will
appear on the right of the display.
AFTER MEASUREMENTS
After measurements have been completed, the instrument should be
switched off and the probe cleaned and covered with the protective
cap.

For greatest accuracy, frequent calibration of the instrument is recommended. The instrument should be recalibrated for pH:
a) Whenever the electrode is replaced.
b) At least once a month.
c) After testing aggressive chemicals.
d) Where extreme accuracy is required.
PREPARATION
Pour small quantities of pH 7.01 (HI 7007 or
HI 8007) or pH 4.01 (HI 7004 or HI 8004) or
pH 10.01 (HI 7010 or HI 8010) solution into
a clean beaker.
To obtain accurate readings, use pH 7.01 (HI 7007 or HI 8007) if
you are going to measure neutral or close to neutral samples, pH 4.01
(HI 7004 or HI 8004) if you are going to measure acidic samples
or pH 10.01 (HI 7010 or HI 8010) for alkaline measurements.
If you need to calibrate HI 9810 to NBS standards, use pH 6.86
(HI 7006 or HI 8006) instead of pH 7.01 and pH 9.18 (HI 7009
or HI 8009) instead of pH 10.01.
PROCEDURE
• Switch the meter on after connecting the electrode and press pH
to display pH measurement.
Accessories needed:
• Use HI 7039 or HI 8039, 5,000 µS/cm EC solution or HI
7032, 1382 ppm TDS solution.
Note: the conversion between EC and TDS is made by a built-in
circuit, hence it is requested to calibrate the meter only in EC
or TDS range. The other range is thus automatically calibrated.
PROCEDURE
• Pour approximately 4 cm (1½") of a conductivity calibration solution (e.g. HI
7039/HI 8039) into a beaker. If possible, use plastic beakers to minimize any
EMC interference.
• Immerse the combined electrode in the solution.
• Wait for a couple of minutes for thermal equilibrium to be reached.
• Tap the combined electrode on the bottom, then
shake it lightly while rotating to make sure no air
bubbles remain trapped inside the probe.
• Select the appropriate range, e.g. µS/cm.
• Remove the protective cap from the electrode, rinse
and immerse it in the buffer and stir gently. Wait a
couple of minutes for the reading to stabilize.
• If the buffer solution is not at ambient temperature,
take its temperature with a ChecktempC (or an accurate thermometer), e.g. 10.0C.
Note: the electrode should be submerged approximately 4 cm (1½") into the
solution. The ChecktempC should be located close to the electrode.
• Adjust the pH calibration knob until the LCD
shows the pH value at the above temperature
(see the pH versus temperature chart on
page 10).
• The pH calibration is now complete.
8
• Turn the EC/TDS calibration knob until the
display shows the EC or TDS reading at
25C.

TEMPERATURE COMPENSATIONTEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
TEMPERATURE COMPENSATIONTEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
The conductivity of an aqueous solution is the measure of its ability to
carry an electrical current by means of ionic motion.
The conductivity invariably increases with increasing temperature.
It is affected by the type and number of ions in the solution and by
the viscosity of the solution itself. Both parameters are temperature
dependent. The dependency of conductivity on temperature is expressed as a relative change per degree Celsius at a particular
temperature, commonly as percent per C.
For common ionic solution, this value is about 2%/C. Acids, alkalis
and concentrated salt solutions have somewhat lower value, typically
1.5%/C.
Since a small difference in temperature causes a large change in
conductivity, it is necessary to compensate for conductivity readings at
high and low temperature. The readings are usually normalized at
25C.
HI 9810 automatically compensates for temperature differences with
a built-in temperature sensor circuitry. With this compensation, the
display shows the readings at 25C (77F).

EC/TDS CONVERSION FACTOREC/TDS CONVERSION FACTOR
The TDS value in aqueous solutions is directly proportional to conductivity. The ratio between the two parameters depends on the solution.
HI 9810 has a fixed conversion factor set to 0.5. This means that
1 µS/cm is equal to 0.5 mg/L of TDS.

HI 1285 is a combined pH/EC/TDS electrode with built-in temperature sensor for EC/TDS
automatic temperature compensation. The probe screened cable is 1 m (3.3") long.
PREPARATION
Remove the protective cap.
DO NOT BE ALARMED IF ANY SALT DEPOSITS ARE PRESENT.
This is normal with pH electrodes and they will disappear when rinsed
with water.
During transport tiny bubbles of air may have formed inside the glass
bulb. The pH electrode cannot function properly under these conditions. These bubbles can be removed by "shaking down" the electrode
as you would do with a glass thermometer.
If the bulb and/or junction are dry, soak the electrode in HI 70300
Storage Solution for at least one hour.
TEST MEASUREMENT
Rinse the electrode tip with tap water.
Immerse the tip (bottom 4 cm / 1½") in the sample and stir gently for
approx. 30 seconds. Light tapping of the electrode on the bottom of
the beaker is sometimes necessary to eliminate air bubble trapped in
the electrode tip that could affect the EC/TDS reading.
For a faster response of the pH reading and to avoid cross contamination of the samples, rinse the electrode tip with the solution to be
tested, before taking your measurements.
STORAGE
When not in use, replace the protective cap.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Inspect the electrode and the cable. The cable used for the connection to
the meter must be intact and there must be no points of broken
insulation on the cable or cracks on the electrode stem or bulb.
Connectors must be perfectly clean and dry. If any scratches or cracks
are present, replace the electrode. Rinse off any salt deposits with
water.
CLEANING PROCEDURE
General
Removal of films, dirt or deposits on the membrane/junction:
Protein
Inorganic
Oil /grease
IMPORTANT: After performing any of the cleaning procedures rinse
the electrode thoroughly with tap water and soak the electrode in
HI 70300 Storage Solution for at least 1 hour before taking a
measurement.
Soak in Hanna HI 7061 General Cleaning Solu-
tion for approximately ½ hour.
Soak in Hanna HI 7073 Protein Cleaning Solu-
tion for 15 minutes.
Soak in Hanna HI 7074 Inorganic Cleaning
Solution for 15 minutes.
Rinse with Hanna HI 7077 Oil and Fat Cleaning Solution.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Evaluate your electrode performance on pH measurements based on
the following.
• Noise (Readings fluctuate up and down) could be due to:
- Clogged/Dirty Junction: Refer to the Cleaning Procedure
above.
• Dry Membrane/Junction: Soak in Storage Solution HI 70300
for at least 1 hour.
• Drifting: Soak the electrode tip in warm Hanna Solution HI 7082
for one hour and rinse tip with distilled water (refill with fresh
HI 7071 for single junction electrodes and HI 7082 for double
junction electrodes if necessary).
• Low Slope: Refer to the cleaning procedure above.
• No Slope: - Check the electrode for cracks in glass stem or
bulb (replace the electrode if cracks are found).
- Make sure cable and connections are not damaged nor lying in a pool of water or solution.
• Slow Response/Excessive Drift: Soak the tip in Hanna Solution HI 7061 for 30 minutes, rinse thoroughly in distilled water
and then follow the Cleaning Procedure above.
Note: for field applications, it is always recommended to keep a spare
electrode handy. When anomalies are not resolved with simple
maintenance, change the electrode (and recalibrate the meter)
to see if the problem is alleviated.
