5.1.1Measuring the pH value
To ensure the high measurement accuracy of the measuring system, always measure with A current calibration (see section 5.2
C
ALIBRATION, page 19).
1.Connect the pH electrode to the meter.
2.When measuring without temperature sensor: Temper the test sample or
measure the current temperature.
3.If necessary, select the measured parameter (pH) with <M>.
4.Immerse the pH electrode in the test sample.
The measured value is checked for stability (stability control).
The [AR] status display flashes.
5.When measuring without temperature sensor: Enter the temperature of
the buffer with <><>.
6.Wait for a stable measured value.
The [AR] display indicator no longer flashes.
Stability control (AutoRead )
During the measuring procedure, the stability control function is automatically
activated.
The stability control function (AutoRead) continually checks the stability of the
18ba75925e0212/2011
measured values in the monitored time interval. The stability has a consider-
able impact on the reproducibility of measured values. The [AR] display indi-
cator flashes until a stable value is measured.

Measured parameterTime intervalStability in the time interval
pH value15 secondsΔ pH: Better than 0.02
Temperature15 secondsΔ T (° C): Better than 0.3
The minimum duration until a measured value is assessed as stable is the
monitored time interval. The actual duration is mostly longer.
5.1.2Measuring the temperature
For reproducible pH measurements, it is essential to measure the temperature
of the test sample.
You have the following options to measure the temperature:
• Automatic measurement of the temperature with the temperature sensor
(NTC30 or Pt1000) integrated in the sensor.
• Measurement with an external temperature sensor.
• Manual determination and input of the temperature.
The measuring instrument recognizes whether a suitable sensor is connected
and automatically switches on the temperature measurement.
Which type of temperature measurement is active is indicated by the tempera-
ture display and the [TP] status indicator:

When a pH electrode is operated, its zero point (asymmetry) and slope change
with the course of time. As a result, an inexact measured value is displayed.

• After connecting another combination electrode
5.2.3Automatic calibration (AutoCal)

sets are used, other nominal buffer values are displayed. Apart from that, the
procedure is identical.
1.Start the calibration with <CAL>.

9.1Maintenance
9.1.1General maintenance activities
The only maintenance activity required is replacing the batteries.
See the relevant operating manuals of the sensors for instructions
on maintenance.
9.1.2Replacing the batteries
You can operate the meter either with normal batteries or with
rechargeable batteries (Ni-MH).
In order to charge the batteries, an external charging device is
required.
1.Open the battery compartment (2) on the underside of the meter.
2.Remove the old batteries.
3.Place four batteries (type AA) in the battery compartment.
CAUTION
Make sure that the poles of the batteries are positioned
correctly.
The ± signs on the batteries must cor respond to th e ± signs in
the battery compartment.

pH 7110Maintenance, cleaning, disposal
4.Close the battery compartment tightly.
When the batteries are nearly empty, the [LoBat] status indicator is
displayed.
Dispose of used batteries according to the local regulations of
your country.
End users within the European Union are obligated to return used
batteries (even ecologically compatible ones) to a collection point
set up for recycling purposes.
Batteries are marked with the crossed-out waste container
symbol. Therefore, they may not be disposed with the domestic
waste.
9.2Cleaning
Occasionally wipe the outside of the measuring instrument with a damp,
lint-free cloth. Disinfect the housing with isopropanol as required.
CAUTION
The housing is made of synthetic material (ABS). Thus, avoid
contact with acetone or similar detergents that contain
solvents. Remove any splashes immediately.
9.3Packing
This meter is sent out in a protective transport packing.
We recommend: Keep the packing material. The original packing protects the
meter against damage during transport.
9.4Disposal
At the end of its operational lifetime, the meter must be returned to the
disposal or return system statutory in your country. If you have any questions,
please contact your supplier.

FCC Class A Equipment Statement
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely
to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at his own expense.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer
could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
