    - 4 - 2. Characteristics of the meter The CP-411 pH meter belongs to the newest generation of measuring devices which offer wide range of additional functions. The meter ensures high accuracy and repeatability of the readings and is easy in use. Two kinds of power source: battery and power adapter enable work in the field and long- lasting measurements in the laboratory.
  • Page 11: What Is The Meter Designed For

    Waterproof housing enables work in difficult weather conditions or in humid environment. The CP-411 pH meter is being used in food, chemical, pharmaceutical and power industries, in water treatment stations, laboratories, agriculture, universities, scientific laboratories etc.
  • Page 12: The Outside View

    In the upper wall of the meter there are inputs placed with the symbols given below: F - BNC-50 for connecting combination pH electrode, measuring pH electrode or redox electrode; t - Chinch input for connecting the temperature probe; P - power adapter input.

    - 13 - 7. Preparation of the pH electrode The electrode should be prepared to work according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If the instructions weren’t given please follow the steps: - new electrode should be put into saturated KCl solution for about 5 hours: - before starting measurements, protecting rings (if used in this kind of electrode) should be removed.
  • Page 20: Calibration

    2 buffer solutions: 4.00 and 7.00 pH is recommended, in case of alkali measurements calibration in 7.00 and 10.00 pH buffers is advisable. In CP-411 the slope of the electrode is approximated in segments between the calibration points. Starting the calibration process irreversibly erases the calibration data stored in the memory.

    (pic.10) Accurate laboratory measurements require using of electromagnetic stirrers. Pic. 10. NOTE: exceeding of the range of temperature compensation is indicated by blinking of the pH readout and the symbol. User‘s manual for CP-411 pH meter v5.30...
  • Page 25: Measurements With Manual Temperature Compensation

    - 19 - 10.2. Measurements with manual temperature compensation Disconnecting the temperature probe switches the meter to the manual temperature compensation mode (the symbol next to the temperature reading disappears). Measurement with manual temperature compensation is similar to measurement with ATC, the difference is that in manual compensation the meter takes into consideration the value of the temperature introduced by the user instead of the temperature measured with the temperature probe.
  • Page 26: Notices About The Temperature Compensation And Interpretation Of The Measurement Results

    - 20 - Notices about the temperature compensation and interpretation of the measurement results The CP-411 pH meter has an automatic temperature compensation, which enables eliminating errors resulting from affecting electrode characteristics by temperature changes. To explain the role of the temperature compensation it is important to remind that pH meter is an mV meter which displays redox counted to pH.
  • Page 27 Slight differences of the results are connected with the accuracy of the meter. The accuracy of CP-411 is ±0,01 pH, ±1 digit, what practically means that in extreme conditions results of two measurements of the same solution may differ in ±0,05 pH. This is an acceptable error, because one result has error equal –...
