  • Page 8: Testing Getting Started

    TESTING Getting Started Remove the cap from the bottom of the TRACER to expose the electrode. Before the fi rst use, rinse the electrode in deionized water and dry. For best results, calibrate for conductivity with a standard in the expected range of the sample.
  • Page 9: Measurement

    Measurement Fill a sample cup to the 20 mL line with the test sample. Sample depth must be greater than or equal to 1.5 inches. Immerse the TRACER electrode in the sample. Make sure the electrode is completely submersed. Press the ON/OFF button. (8888 and then SELF CAL will appear in the display during the initial diagnos- tics).

  • Page 11: Clearing The Memory

    The last stored reading taken will be displayed fi rst. To advance to the previously stored readings, press the MODE button. The location number is displayed fi rst, followed by the reading stored in that location. To exit the storage mode, press the CAL button and the TRACER will return to normal operation after displaying “End”.
  • Page 12 The calibration range indicator will appear on the display for each range that is calibrated during a power on cycle. Low Range, 84 μS/cm Medium Range, 1413 μS/cm or 3,000 ppm SaH High Range, 12.88 mS/cm (12,880 μS/cm) NOTE: Each time the calibration mode is entered all calibration range indicators will be cleared, but only the calibration data for the currently selected range will be replaced.

  • Page 15: Maintenance Storage

    MAINTENANCE Storage Rinse the electrode in distilled or deionized water. Store the electrode dry with the cap on. Always rinse the electrode in deionized water between measurements to avoid cross contamination. Double rinsing is recommended when high accuracy is required. Battery Replacement Twist off the battery compartment cap.
  • Page 16: Replacing The Electrode

    Replacing the electrode Unscrew and remove the electrode collar. Turn collar counter-clockwise. Gently rock the electrode side to side, while pulling it away from the meter, until it disconnects from the electrode socket. To attach an electrode, align the slots and carefully plug the electrode into the meter socket.
