GENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI 98143 is a pH/EC transmitter specially designed for long
distance measurements of pH and Electrical Conductivity in
industrial applications. It can be either panel- or wallmounted.
The pH and EC signals 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 recommended pH electrode is the
HI1001 while the conductivity probe is the HI3001.
HI1001 is a combined double junction pH electrode with
BNC and 3m cable; HI3001 is a 4-ring conductivity probe
with platinum sensors and an internal temperature sensor
to compensate reading for temperature changes.
Both probes have external threads for easy installation in
continuous flow-thru monitoring, for either in-line or tank
applications.
They can resist up to 80C (176F) and 6 bar (87 psi).
The instrument is supplied with a differential input. An
HI1283 stainless steel probe can be connected to prevent
potential grounding problems and ensure longer life to the
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 and the
Potential Matching Pin to the PM terminal.
EC PROBE CONNECTION
• Probe wires are color coded for an easy operating. Follow
the table below for proper installation.
Terminal # Probe Wire Color
Cond.Probe 1 green
Cond.Probe 2 white

POWER CONNECTION
• Connect a 2-wire cable to the 1224 VDC power source
paying attention to its polarity.
OUTPUT CONNECTION
• Connect the pH output terminals to the pH receiver with
a 2-wire cable, and the EC output terminals to the EC
receiver with a second 2-wire cable. Pay attention to the
polarity. At these contacts currents vary proportionally to
the measured pH and EC values between 4 and 20 mA.

OPERATIONAL GUIDEOPERATIONAL GUIDE
• To minimize thermal drifts due to extreme temperature
fluctuations and in case of outdoors measurements, it is
recommended to protect the transmitter with a proper
casing.
• Connect pH electrode, EC probe, power supply and
receiving devices to the transmitter by following the
previous instructions.
• Remove the protective cap from the pH electrode and
immerse it into the sample, at least 4 cm.
• When using the matching pin, dip it together with the
pH electrode; otherwise, connect its terminal to the
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. In addition, the instrument must 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 (HI7007)
and pH 4.0 (HI7004) solution into two
clean beakers.
Calibration with pH 4.0 (HI7004) solution is recommended
for measuring acidic samples. Use pH 10.0 (HI7010) solution if subsequent samples are alkaline.
• Connect a multimeter to the pH output terminals and
set it to current readings.
• Turn the transmitter on.
• Rinse the electrode and immerse it in a pH
7.0 buffer together with the grounding
probe. Stir gently and then wait for the
reading to stabilize.
• Adjust the pH Offset Calibration Trimmer with a small
screwdriver until the multimeter displays 12.00 mA.
• Rinse the pH electrode and the grounding
probe, and immerse them in pH 4.0 (or
pH 10.0) buffer. Stir gently and wait for a
couple of minutes.
• Adjust the pH Slope Trimmer until the multimeter shows
the corresponding mA value of the second buffer (8.57
mA for pH 4 and 15.43 mA for pH 10 solution).
The pH calibration is now complete.
EC CALIBRATION
• Connect a multimeter to the EC output terminals and set
it to current readings.
• Turn the transmitter on.
• The HI3001 EC probe must be dry.
• Adjust the EC Offset Calibration Trimmer with a small
screwdriver until the multimeter displays 4.00 mA.
• Pour a small quantity of 5.00 mS/cm calibration solution in a beaker.
• Immerse completely the tip of the EC probe in the
conductivity solution.
• Tap the probe and stir it to ensure that
no air bubbles are trapped inside the
sleeve. In the case of in-line applications,
to better simulate the installation ambient, put the probe tip close to the bottom
edge of the beaker.
• Allow the reading to stabilize and then adjust the EC
Slope Calibration Trimmer until the multimeter displays
12.00 mA.
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. Immerse the tip of the electrode in HI 7061 for one hour
and then rinse it with tap water.
EC PROBE MAINTENANCE
• Remove the conductivity probe and rinse it with tap
water. If a more thorough cleaning is desired, remove
the protective plastic sleeve and clean the platinum
sensors with a nonabrasive cloth or
HI 7061 cleaning solution. Reinsert
the sleeve while paying attention
that the 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.
