Warning and Safety Information
Your pH/mV meter complies with the
European Council Directives as well as
international regulations and standards
for electrical equipment, electromagnetic
compatibility, and the stipulated safety
requirements. Improper use or handling,
however, can result in damage and/or
injury.
§ To prevent damage to the equipment,
read this Operation Manual thoroughly
before using your pH/mV meter.
Keep these instructions in a safe place.
Please observe the following instructions
to ensure safe and reliable operation of
your pH/mV meter.
Designated Use
– Designated use of the pH/mV meter is
exclusively for measuring pH and millivolt values in a laboratory environment.
Any use above and beyond this is
considered non-intended use.
Operational Safety
!Do not use this equipment in potentially
explosive atmospheres.
!If you use electrical equipment in instal-
lations and under ambient conditions
requiring higher safety standards, you
must comply with the provisions as
specified in the applicable regulations
for installation in your country.
!If you use an AC adapter, make sure
the voltage rating printed on the AC
adapter is identical to your local line
voltage.
– If you transport your pH/mV meter
from a cold to a warm environment,
condensation may occur and your
pH/mV meter may malfunction. In cases
like this, allow the meter’s temperature
to reach the room temperature prior
to using it again.
– Use Sartorius accessories, as these are
optimally designed for use with your
pH/mV meter.
– Calibration:
The temperature dependency for some
buffer solutions and DIN/NIST is saved
in your pH/mV meter. Automatic temperature compensation is only accurate
if the stored buffers are used.
– Installation instructions:
The operator shall be responsible for
any modifications to Sartorius equipment and must check and, if necessary,
correct these modifications. On request,
Sartorius will provide information on
the minimum operating specifications
(in accordance with the standards listed
above for defined immunity to interference).
Protection ratings for the housing:
– This meter complies with IP43
– AC adapter complies with IP20
– Only clean the meter as described in the
cleaning instructions: see the chapter
entitled “Care and Maintenance.”
$ If you have any problems with your
pH/mV meter:
contact your local Sartorius office,
dealer or service center.
