    TITRATION MESSAGES This screen is displayed when the instrument is in titration mode. Press the Start to begin a titration, Meter to enter ORP meter mode or Prime to enter into the prime function. The titration result, expressed as the concentration of sulfur dioxide in ppm (mg/L), is displayed automatically at the end of the titration.
  • Page 18: Dosing Pump Installation

    DOSING PUMP INSTALLATION To install dosing pump follow the procedure below: • Extend the plunger on the 5 mL syringe to its maximum volume. • Place the syringe in the dedicated spot on the top of the meter (1). • Arrange the bottom of the syringe into the holder on the pump (2). Once the syringe is in place lower the barrel until it sits flush on the holder.
  • Page 19 Note: • The aspiration tube must be inserted in the titrant bottle. The dosing tip must be placed over a rinse beaker. • Before starting the prime procedure make sure you are using the appropriate titrant solution for the selected range. •...

  • Page 33 DO NOT BE ALARMED IF SALT DEPOSITS ARE PRESENT. This is normal with electrodes. They will disappear when rinsed with distilled/deionized water. During transport, tiny bubbles of air may form inside the glass bulb affecting proper functioning of the electrode. These bubbles can be removed by “shaking down” the electrode as you would do with a glass thermometer.
