GENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI 981504 has been designed for continuously and simulta­neously monitoring pH, TDS and temperature. Simply install the HI 981504 above the sample to be tested, plug the instrument to the mains and immerse the probes. pH, TDS and temperature measurements will be simultaneously displayed on three backlit LCDs. The user can easily select the temperature unit (°C or °F) through a switch on the rear panel. The HI 1286 gel-filled pH electrode is provided with a water­proof sheath to protect the BNC connector. The unique design of the electrode provides longer life even in aggressive solutions. The HI 7634 TDS probe is easy to clean and requires little maintenance. Measurements are accurate and the meter can be calibrated at one or two points for pH, and at a single point for TDS. Temperature range is factory calibrated.
Two models are available:
HI 981504/5 with 0.5 TDS factor
HI 981504/7 with 0.7 TDS factor
1. Backlit LCD for pH readings
2. pH calibration trimmers
3. Backlit LCD for TDS readings
4. TDS calibration trimmer
5. Backlit LCD for temperature readings
6. BNC connector (pH electrode)
7. Protective sheath for BNC connector
8. HI 1286 pH electrode
9. HI 7634 TDS probe (fixed)
10. Temperature probe (fixed)
11. 12 Vdc power adapter
12. Power supply connector
Recommendations for Users
Before using these products, make sure that they are entirely suitable for the environment in which it is used. Operation of these instruments 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 the bulb at all times. 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 instruments’ EMC performance. To avoid electrical shock, do not use this instrument when voltage at the measurement surface exceeds 24 Vac or 60 Vdc. To avoid damage or burns, do not perform any measurement in microwave ovens.
Hanna Instruments reserves the right to modify the design,
construction and appearance of its products without advance notice.
°C/°F SELECTION
TDS CALIBRATION
pH ELECTRODE MAINTENANCE
ACCESSORIES
• The user can easily select the temperature unit, in degrees Celsius (default) or Fahrenheit through a switch on the rear panel.
• Remove the label and set the switch to the desired position. Replace the label for better protection against humidity.
pH ELECTRODE CONNECTION
In order to protect the instrument against vapors and humidity, the BNC connector is protected with a waterproof sheath.
• Slide the protective sheath down. Connect the pH electrode to the BNC socket and then slide the protective sheath back up. For maximum waterproof protection, make sure the connector is completely covered.
• 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.
pH CALIBRATION
• Turn the meter on.
• Pour a small quantity of the proper calibration solution (HI 7032 for HI 981504/5 or HI 70442 for HI 981504/7) in a beaker. If possible, use plastic beakers to minimize any EMC interference.
• Immerse the TDS probe in the solution, making sure that the metal pins are completely submerged.
Note: For best accuracy, the probe body should not touch nor
stand close to the side walls of the beaker.
• Wait for a couple of minutes for thermal equilibrium to be reached and the temperature to be compensated.
• Tap the probe gently on the bottom and shake it, to make sure no air bubbles have remained trapped inside.
• Adjust the calibration trimmer with the supplied screwdriver until the display shows “1380” ppm (HI 981504/5) or “1500” ppm (HI 981504/7)
Calibration is now complete.
TAKING MEASUREMENTS
• When not in use, rinse the electrode with water and store it with a few drops of HI 70300 storage solution in the protective cap. Always replace the protective cap after use.
DO NOT USE DISTILLED OR DEIONIZED WATER FOR STOR­AGE PURPOSES.
• If the electrode has been left dry, soak the tip in HI 70300 storage solution overnight to reactivate it.
• To minimize clogging and provide longer life for the pH electrode, it is recommended to clean it at least once a week. Immerse the tip of the electrode in the HI 700661 cleaning solution supplied with the instrument, for half an hour and then rinse it with tap water.

CE DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY
Pour small quantities of pH 7 (HI 7007) and pH 4 (HI 7004) or pH 10 (HI 7010) buffer solutions into two clean beakers. For accurate calibration use two beakers for each buffer solu­tion, the first one for rinsing the electrode tip, and the second one for calibration.
• Turn the meter on.
• Remove the electrode protective cap, rinse and immerse the electrode in the pH 7 buffer solution together with the TDS probe (working as matching pin). Stir gently and wait for the reading to stabilize.
Note: The electrode should be submerged approximately 4 cm
(1½”) in the solution.
• Adjust the “pH 7” trimmer with the supplied calibration screwdriver until the LCD shows pH “7.0”.
Rinse and immerse the pH electrode and the TDS probe in the pH 4 (or pH 10) buffer. Stir gently.
• Wait for a stable reading and then adjust the “pH 4” trimmer to read pH “4.0” (or pH “10.0”).
The pH calibration is now complete.
• Turn the meter on by connecting the supplied 12 Vdc power adapter to the meter and then to the mains.
• Remove the protective cap from the pH electrode.
• Immerse the tips of pH elec­trode (at least 4cm/1½”), TDS and temperature probes into the solution to be tested. For best accuracy, the probes should not touch or stand close to the vessel’s walls or bottom.
• The three backlit LCDs will show the pH, TDS and tempera­ture values, respectively. Any initial variation in readings may be due to the pH electrode conditioning and to the temperature compensa­tion of TDS measurements. Allow the readings to stabilize.
It is recommended to clean the probe at least once a month, by following this procedure:
• Immerse the tip of the probe in the HI 700661 cleaning solution supplied with the instrument, for half an hour.
• If a more thorough cleaning is required, brush the metal pins with very fine sandpaper.
• After cleaning, rinse the probe with tap water and recalibrate the instrument.
