Safety This Operating Instructions Manual contains fundamental information that should be observed in connection with the installation, start-up, operation and maintenance of the instrument in connection with the sensor. Therefore, it is absolutely vital for the user to read this manual prior to working with it. User qualification The meter has been designed for analytical measurements.
Sockets 2 sockets for connecting the sensor and the” Interface HMG USB” are located on the front side of the instrument. Please use only the delivered original cable for the interface with the PC. For protecting the sockets against moisture and to avoid corrosion, the sensor should always be connected to the instrument and the “Interface HMG USB”...

Configuration pass word For configuration of the password do the following steps: 1. Open menu „general“ 2. Select „Pass word“ and enter your new pass word 3. Retry the new pass word Select the position you would like to change by using the buttons and change with Press the -button to accept and save the entry.
Data logger The device has an integrated data logger with real-time clock. So it is possible to save the last about 4.000 data sets (date, time, main measurement value, second measurement value, temperature). The saved data can be either displayed directly in the device display or transferred by the USB-interface. To configuration the data logger do the following steps: 1.
/ electrodes. Please send us the old measuring instruments and sensors for disposal. Sensortechnik Meinsberg GmbH takes it back free of charge and recycles/disposes the electronic scrap in a competent way. Do not dispose your old measuring instruments in household refuse, this is illegal.
(pH combination electrodes, redox combination electrodes or electrodes supplied from other manufacturers with BK plug) can be used in connection with TM 40. The isopotential point (25deg) of the used electrodes must be pH 7. Platinum combination electrodes with Ag/AgCl reference system with 3 mol/l KCl electrolyte are recommended for redox potential measurements.(i.e.

The automatic calibration of the pH measurement is a two-point type and requires knowledge of what buffer solution group you want to use. The TM 40 offers the following buffer solution groups for calibration: NBS standard buffer solution as per DIN 19266: pH value at 25 °C 1.68 / 4.01 / 6.86 / 9.18 / 12.45 Technical buffer solution as per DIN 19267: pH value at 25 °C 1.09 / 3.06 / 4.65 / 6.79 / 9.23...
8.5.5 Calibration error In the TM 40 predefined ranges for the calibration values are stored. If the determined calibration value is out of the range the message !Out of limit! appears in the calibration information CAL INFORMATION. The determined calibration value will be stored nevertheless, so that the measuring and controlling is secured.
As a result, you will now be given the new calibration values that will be save in the device. To cancel the input dialogue without saving the value press Configuration TM 40 Open with + password the configuration menu.
8.8.2 Configuration of the sensor type The TM 40 can be connected with pH, ORP or ISE electrodes. The used sensor type has to be configured in the device. For configuration of a sensor type do the following steps: 1. open menu „sensortype“...

10.5.4 Automatic calibration „Automatic“ The automatic calibration of the conductivity measurement is a single-point calibration. The temperature-correction-curves for the following conductivity standard solutions are stored in the LF 40: Conductivity Standard Solution 0,01 N KCl: 1,41 mS/cm (25 °C) Conductivity Standard Solution 0,1 N KCl: 12,9 mS/cm (25 °C) At first, you will be prompted to dip the sensor into the corresponding calibration medium.
