The multimeter ALMEMO 2190-2 is an instrument from a unique ® product range of measuring devices that are all equipped with the ALMEMO connector system, which has been patented by Ahlborn GmbH. The intelligent ® ALMEMO connector provides important advantages with regard to the connection of sensors and peripherals as all parameters are stored in an EEPROM within the connector.
Furthermore, there are adapter connectors with an own microcontroller for digital signals and for measuring frequencies ® and pulses. This way, nearly all sensors can be connected to any ALMEMO measuring instrument and are interchangeable without requiring any settings. Dimension ®...

External Sensor Programming All sensor programming is supported when they have been programmed in the ® factory or by using other ALMEMO devices. Dimension The 2-digit dimension can be altered for each measuring channel so that the display will always indicate the correct dimension, for example when a transmitter is connected.
5. Use the key HOLD to perform a freezing of the measured value, see 7.3. 6. Differential measurement related to a reference value or sensor adjustment with key CLEAR, see 7.4. 7. For evaluating the measurement: use the keys MAX and MIN to recall the max and min values. ALMEMO 2190-2...
The battery should be immediately removed. Leakage of the battery and damage to the instrument can then be avoided. The actual battery voltage can be accurately monitored with an own measuring channel Ubat and the remaining battery life can be estimated accordingly. ALMEMO 2190-2...
(10...36V DC) is required. It allows to operate the measuring instrument with 12V or 24V mains supply. If a battery is used in addition it will take over the power supply if the voltage drops under 9V. ALMEMO 2190-2...
A mechanical coding ensures that sensor and output modules ® can only be connected to the correct sockets. Furthermore, each ALMEMO connector has two locking levers that snap in when the insertion into the socket is established and that prevent a disconnection caused by pulling the cable.

The voltage applied to the measuring inputs must not ± exceed 5V (between B,C,D and A or - respectively).
Display 5. DISPLAY ® The display (5) of the measuring instrument ALMEMO 2190-2 consists of an LCD module with six 7-segment digits, two 16-segment digits, and a battery symbol and seven arrows for indicating the operating status. (CONT) CORR HOLD...
As all ALMEMO instruments contain the whole sensor programming stored in ® ® the ALMEMO connector, it is possible to connect all ALMEMO sensors with ® no programming being required. The instrument ALMEMO 2190-2 does not offer any programming facility. To connect existing sensors it is necessary to ®...

The reference value will only be cleared when the key MEAS. is operated again in the function MEASUREMENT or when the instrument is being switched off. In this case the max and min values will also be cleared and the arrow ´CORR´ will stop flashing. ALMEMO 2190-2...
0.00 but pH 7.00 after the adjustment. ® Unlike other ALMEMO instruments, the correction values will not be stored in an EEPROM of the sensor but will be lost when switching over in function MEASUREMENT or when switching the instrument off.
8. TROUBLESHOOTING ® The measuring instrument ALMEMO 2190-2 allows for a connection of many different sensors and peripheral devices. Due to the large variety of options it is possible that, under certain conditions, it does not perform as the user would expect.
Electromagnetic Compatibility 9. ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY ® The measuring instrument ALMEMO 2190-2 meets the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) safety requirements specified in the relevant CE directive issued by the council for the alignment of legal regulations of the member states (89/336/EWG). The following standards have been applied for the evaluation of the product:...
