GENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI 98143 is a panel mounted pH/EC transmitter specially
designed for long distance measurement of pH and Electrical
Conductivity in industrial applications.
The pH and EC signals are transmitted through two wires.
Inputs are isolated to avoid any interference with the
receiving device.
Probes connectors, power supply, contacts and calibration
trimmers are easy to reach directly on the front panel.
For in-line applications the pH electrode should be HI1001
and conductivity probe should be HI3001. HI1001 is a
combined double junction pH electrode with BNC and 3 m
(10’) cable. HI3001 is a 4-ring conductivity probe with
platinum sensors and internal temperature sensor to compensate reading for temperature changes. Both the probes
have external threads for easy installation in continuous
flow-thru monitoring, either in-line or tank applications.
They can resist up to 80C (176F) and 6 bar (87 psi).
The HI 98143 is supplied with a differential input. An HI
1283 stainless steel probe to prevent potential grounding
problems can be connected thus ensuring longer life for your
electrode.
Measurements are accurate and the meter can be calibrated at one or two points.

pH ELECTRODE CONNECTION
• Connect the pH electrode to the BNC connector (#3)
and the Potential Matching Pin to the PM terminal.
EC PROBE CONNECTION
• Probe wires are color coded for an easy installation. See
table below for proper installation.

POWER CONNECTION
• Connect a 2-wire cable to the 1224 VDC power source
paying careful attention to its polarity.
OUTPUT CONNECTION
• Connect a 2-wire cable from the pH output terminals
(#8) to the pH receiver and another 2-wire cable from
the EC output terminals to the EC receiver paying
attention to the polarity. Voltages at these contacts vary
proportionally to the measured pH and EC values in the
range of 01 V.

• HI 98143 may be wall-mounted at any convenient
location close to the measurement site. To minimize
thermal drifts due to extreme temperature fluctuations,
particularly if measurements are conducted outdoors, it
is recommended that the transmitter is protected in a
casing.
• Connect pH electrode, EC probe, power supply and
receiving devices to the HI98143 according to previous
instructions.
• Remove the protective cap from the pH electrode and
immerse it into the sample, at least 4 cm.
• When the matching pin is used dip it together
with the pH electrode, if matching pin is not in
use, connect the matching pin terminal to the
Reference
reference with a jumper wire.
• Immerse the EC probe in the sample.
• For continuous flow-thru measurements, the probes can
be easily installed in any standard ½” pipe tee. Use
Teflon tape between the probe and the pipe to ensure
a leak free joint. Take care not to overtighten it, as
excessive pressures can cause probe damage.
Note: to prevent damage to the electrode, disconnect the
pH electrode before turning the meter off.
CALIBRATIONCALIBRATION
CALIBRATION
CALIBRATIONCALIBRATION
For better accuracy, frequent calibration of the instrument is
recommended. The instrument should be recalibrated for
pH:
a) Whenever the electrode is replaced.
b) After testing aggressive chemicals.
c) At least once a month.
pH CALIBRATION
Pour small quantities of pH 7.0 (HI 7007)
and pH 4.0 (HI 7004) solution into two
clean beakers.
Calibration with pH 4.0 (HI 7004) solution is recommended
for measuring acidic samples. Use pH 10.0 (HI 7010)
solution if subsequent samples are alkaline.
• Connect a multimeter to the pH output terminals and
set it to Voltage readings.
• Turn the transmitter on.
• Rinse the electrode and immerse it in a pH
7.0 buffer with the grounding probe. Stir
gently and then wait for the reading to
stabilize.
better simulate the installation ambient,
the probe tip should be close to the
beaker bottom edge.
• Allow the reading to stabilize and then
adjust the EC Slope Calibration Trimmer
to read 500 mV on the multimeter LCD.

NOTE: The input is isolated from

• Rinse and immerse the pH electrode and
the grounding probe in pH 4.0 (or pH 10.0)
buffer and stir gently.
• Wait a couple of minutes and then adjust the pH Slope
Trimmer until the multimeter shows the value of the
second buffer expressed in mV (286mV for pH4 and
714mV for pH10 solution).
The EC calibration is now complete.
PH ELECTRODE MAINTENANCE
• Do not be alarmed if white crystals appear around the
electrode protective cap. This is normal with pH electrodes and they dissolve when rinsed with water.
• When not in use, rinse the electrode with tap water to
minimize contamination and store it with a few drops of
storage (HI 70300) or pH 7 (HI 7007) solution in the
protective cap.
DO NOT USE DISTILLED OR DEIONIZED WATER FOR
STORAGE PURPOSES.

• If the electrode has been left dry, soak the tip in a
storage (HI 70300) or pH 7 (HI 7007) solution for at
least one hour to reactivate it.
• To minimize clogging and provide longer life for the pH
electrode, it is recommended to clean it monthly. Im-
The pH calibration is now complete.
EC CALIBRATION
• Connect a multimeter to the EC output terminals and set
it to Voltage readings.
• Turn the transmitter on.
• Leave the HI3001 EC probe in air (dry probe).
• Adjust the EC Offset Calibration Trimmer with the calibration screwdriver until the multimeter displays 0 mV.
• Pour a small quantity of 5.00 mS/cm calibration solution in a beaker.
• Immerse completely the tip of the EC probe into the
beaker with the conductivity solution.
• Tap the probe repeatedly on the bottom of the beaker
and stir it to ensure that
inside the sleeve. In the case of in-line applications, to
no air bubbles are trapped
merse the tip of the electrode in HI 7061 for one hour
and then rinse it with tap water.
EC PROBE MAINTENANCE
• When calibration can no longer be achieved, remove
conductivity probe from the system for maintenance.
Rinse the probe with tap water. If a more thorough
cleaning is desired, remove the plastic protective sleeve
and clean the platinum sensors with a nonabrasive
cloth or HI 7061 cleaning solution.
Reinsert the sleeve in the same direction as before, paying attention
the sleeve hole touches the threaded
edge.

Recommendations for Users
Before using this product, make sure that it is entirely suitable for the
environment in which it is used. Operation of this instrument in residential areas could cause unacceptable interferences to radio and TV equipment. The glass bulb at the end of the electrode is sensitive to electrostatic discharges. Avoid touching this glass bulb all the time. The metal
band at the end of the EC electrode is sensitive to electrostatic discharges. Avoid touching this metal band all the time. During operation,
ESD wrist straps should be
worn to avoid possible damage to the electrode by
electrostatic discharges.
Any variation introduced by
the user to the supplied
equipment may degrade the
instrument’s EMC performance.
To avoid electrical shock, do
not use this instrument when
voltages at the measurement
surface exceed 24 VAC or 60
VDC. To avoid damages or
burns, do not perform any
measurement in microwave
ovens.
