1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing our PC 700 series benchtop meter.
This microprocessor-based meter is economical and simple to
use. The design incorporates a large LCD for clear viewing, yet
offers a small footprint to conserve space.
The PC 700 measures pH, mV (ORP), conductivity, or TDS
simultaneously with temperature (ºC or ºF).
Each meter includes a convenient slide-out card for quick
reference. Also included is an electrode arm and metal bracket
which can be easily attached to the left or right side of the meter
according to your preference.
The PC 700 benchtop meter replaces our popular pH/CON 510
series meter that was introduced in 2000.
We take great pride in every instrument we manufacture
and hope this one serves you well.

3. CONDUCTIVITY ELECTRODE
The PC 700 includes an electrode with a nominal cell constant of k
= 1.0, built-in temperature sensor, and 1 meter cable. The Ultem
body housing has good chemical resistant properties. The
electrode design offers fast temperature response and reduces air
entrapment, ensuring accurate, repeatable, and stable readings.
he wetted materials of the probe include:
T
Polyetherimide (Ultem) – protective probe guard
Polybutylterphalate (Valox) – sensor housing
Stainless Steel (SS 304) – 2 bands
The protective probe guard can be removed temporarily for
cleaning however it must be re-attached during measurement and
calibration. Erroneous results will occur while the probe guard
is removed.
Always immerse the probe beyond upper steel band for best
results. Use the fill line on the outside of the probe guard for
reference.
4. PH AND MV CALIBRATION
4.1 pH Calibration
For best results, periodic calibration with known accurate standards
recommended. Calibrate with standards that bracket your intended
measuring range while including a neutral standard (pH 7.00 or 6.86).
For example, if you expect to measure samples from

alibration with 4.01, 7.00, and 10.01 will work well.

4.2 Millivolt (mV) Offset Adjustment
Oxidization Reduction Potential (ORP or Redox) is not a precise
measurement, but is useful as a relative indicator. As such, mV offset
adjustment is not meant to enhance accuracy, but rather to make
readings comparable to a reference. Commercial ORP solutions are
often used as a check s
verified to be close to a given value, instea of being used as a
calibration standard in which adjustments made in an attempt to

When the electrode is replaced, it is best to clear the calibration to the

To protect from erroneous calibrations, the allowable tolerance is ±40%

TIP: When multiple pH slopes exist, the slope that is available to view
will depend on the measured value before entering SETUP mode.
For example, if pH calibration values pH 4.01, 7.00 and 10.01 were
completed, there will be two slope values; one that corresponds to pH
values below 7.00 and another that corresponds to pH values above
7.00. If the measured pH value was 5.23 when setup mode was
entered, the pH slope that corresponds to values lower than 7.00 will
be available to view. If no calibration is stored, the offset will be 0.0

10. CALCULATING TDS CONVERSION FACTOR
You can calibrate TDS using the value of the calibration standard solution
at a standard temperature such as 25 ºC. To determine the conductivityto-TDS conversion factor use the following formula:
Factor = Actual TDS ÷ Actual Conductivity @ 25 ºC
Actual TDS: Value from the solution bottle label or as a
standard made using high purity water and precisely weighed
salts.
ppm = milligram of salt(s) per liter of water = mg/L
ppt = gram of salt(s) per liter of water = g/L
Actual Conductivity: Value measured using a properly
calibrated Conductivity/Temperature meter.
Both the Actual TDS and the Actual Conductivity values must be in the
same magnitude of units. For example, if the TDS value is in ppm the
conductivity value must be in µS; if the TDS value is in ppt the conductivity
value must be in mS.
Check your factor by multiplying the conductivity reading by the factor in
the above formula. The result should be in TDS value.
When the TDS factor is set to 1.0, Conductivity = TDS.
17
11. CALCULATING TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENTS
To determine the temperature coefficient of your sample solution use this
formula:
Where:
tc = Temperature coefficient 25 = 25 ºC
C
= Conductivity at Temp 1 CT2 = Conductivity at Temp 2
T1
T1 = Temp 1 T2 = Temp 2
NOTE: A controlled temperature water bath is ideal for this procedure.
1. Immerse the probe into a sample of your solution and adjust the
temperature coefficient to 0% (that is, no compensation) by following
instructions as described in Section 9.9.
2. Wait for 5 minutes. Note T1 and CT1 (conductivity at T1).
3. Condition the sample solution and probe to a temperature (T2) that is
about 5 ºC to 10 ºC different from T1, and note the conductivity
reading C
.
T2
NOTE: Record your results for future reference. Ideally T1 and T2 should
bracket your measurement temperature, and should not differ by
more than 5 ºC.
4. Calculate the temperature coefficient of your solution according to the
formula shown above.
5. Enter the calculated temperature coefficient into the meter.
The calculated temperature coefficient will now be applied to all the meter
readings.
