4-1 Calibrating Consideration
The PH meter already calibrated by mV signal
that simulated from the mV output of the ideal PH ELECTRODE (base on 25 environment). For an
ideal electrode will produce 0 mV at PH 7.00, but most electrodes are slight off.
It is necessary to make the following calibration procedures (4-2, 4-3), if the user intend to keep instrument along the electrode within high accuracy or the first time use the meter & the electrode.
4-2 Requiring Equipment for Calibration
1)Combination PH ELECTRODE(optional).
2)Two buffer solutions (optional) : PH-07 & PH-04.
4-3 Two Points Calibration
1
)

Button " (3-2, Fig.1).
2)
Select the " Function Switch " (3-11, Fig.1) to the " PH MANUAL TEMP. " position.
3)Adjust the " Temperature Compensation Values " to be same as the temperature values of the PH-04 buffer solution.
The adjusting procedures, please refer to 5-1.
4)Connect the combination PH ELECTRODE to the " BNC socket " (3-15, Fig. 1) and place the electrode into the buffer solution PH-07. Use the screw to adjust the " PH 7 calibration VR " (3-9, Fig.1) until the display reading reach to 7.00 0.01.
5
5)Rinse the electrode in the distilled water. Place the electrode into the PH-04 ( or PH-10 ) buffer
solution. Use the screw to adjust the " PH 4 calibration VR " (3-12, Fig.1) until the display reading reach to
4.00 0.01 ( or 10.00 0.01 for PH-10 ).
6)Rinse the electrode in the distilled water again.
7)Repeat above (4) to (5) procedures two times at least.
8)The instrument and electrode are now finished the
" TWO POINTS CALIBRATION " & ready for the measurement.
4-4 Single Point Calibration
1)Power on the instrument by pushing the " Power On/Off Button " (3-2, Fig.1).
2)
Select the " Function Switch " (3-11, Fig.1) to the
" PH MANUAL TEMP. " position.
3)Connect the combination PH ELECTRODE to the " BNC socket " (3-15, Fig. 1) and place the electrode into the PH-07 buffer solution.
Use the screw to adjust the " PH 7 calibration VR " (3-9, Fig.1) until the display reading reach to 7.00 0.01.
4)Repeat above (3) procedures two times at least.
5)
The instrument and electrode are now finished the " SINGLE POINTS CALIBRATION " & ready for the measurement.
5. PH TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
Enables the meter to read solutions at various tempera­tures. The meter corrects for an electrode's temperature dependency. The compensation may be manual with a button adjustment on the meter, or it may be automatic with a optional temperature sensing probe immersed in the test solution.
6
5-1 Manual temperature compensation
1)Select the " Function Switch " (3-11, Fig.1) to the " PH MANUAL. TEMP. " position.
2)Push the " MANUAL Temp. Button " (3-10, Fig.1) first, then the display will show " 25.0 " for the initial manual setting temp.

2)Plug in the " Optional Temp. Probe, TP-07 " into the "
Temp. Socket " (3-17, Fig. 1).
3)Place the "Temp. Probe" into the tested solution, then
the PH function will be temperature compensated
automatically.
6. MEASURING PROCEDURE
6-1 PH Measurement
After the instrument and PH electrode are calibrated, then the unit is now ready for measuring.
1)Connect the combination PH ELECTRODE to the " BNC socket " (3-15, Fig. 1).
2)
Power on the instrument by pushing the " Power
On/Off Button " (3-2, Fig.1).
3)If the operating is under the " Manual temperature compensation ", then please according the above 5-1 measuring procedures.
7
If the operating is under the " Automatic temperature compensation ", then please according the above 5-2 measuring procedures.
4)Place the electrode into the measured solution, then the instrument will display the PH value.
5)After make the measurement, please rinse the electrode in distilled water.
6-2 mV Measurement
The instrument build in mV(milli volt) measuring function, letting you make ion-selective, ORP (oxidation-reduction potential), and other precise mV measurements. Select the "Function Switch"(3-11, Fig.1) to the "mV" position. Then the meter will show the mV values on the display.
6-3 Temp. Measurement
1)Select the "Function Switch"(3-11, Fig.1) to the
" PH AUTO TEMP. " position.
2)Plug in the " Optional Temp. Probe " into the " Temp. Input
Socket " (3-17, Fig. 1).
3) * If intend to measure the " ", then push the " button " to select the " " unit.
* If intend to measure the " ", then push the "
button " to select the " " unit.
4)Place the "Temp. Probe" into the tested solution, then
the meter will show the temperature value.
8
Consideration :
When use the Temp. Probe, As to keep the temp. reading be stable, should plug in the PH electrode into the meter at the same time. If only plug in the temp. probe, then the temperature reading value may exist little deviation.
6-4 Data Hold
1)During the measurement, Push the " Hold
Button " (3-3, Fig. 1) will hold the display values &
LCD will show the " D.H. " marker.
2)Push the "Data Hold Button" again will release the
data hold function.
6-5 Data Record( Max., Min., Average reading)
1)The DATA RECORD function displays the maximum,
minimum and average readings. To start the DATA
RECORD function, press the " Record Button " (3-6,
Fig. 1) once. " REC " symbol will appear on the LCD
display.
2)With the " REC " marker on the display.
(a) Push the " CALL Button " (3-7, Fig. 1) once,
then the " Max " symbol along the maximum value
will appear on the LCD display.
(b) Push the " CALL Button " once, then the " Min "
symbol along the minimum value will appear on
the LCD display.
(c) Push the " CALL Button " once, then the " AVG "
symbol along the average value will appear on
the LCD display.
(d) To exit memory record function, push the " RECORD
Button " once again. The display will revert back
to current reading.
After stop the "Record" function, the symbol of " REC ", " Max ", " Min ", " AVG " will disappear.
