MULTI - PARAMETER INSTR About this Manual This manual covers basic use of the Multi-Parameter Smart Sensor. Further details about each connected probe, including calibration information, can be found in their respective manuals. Be sure to refer to these manuals for important information on care and maintenance of your probe.
Parameter Sensor can measure pH, ORP, temperature, conductivity, salinity, TDS, pressure, level, and dissolved oxygen or turbidity, depending on configuration. The Multi-Parameter Smart Sensor is powered from a 12 VDC power supply and can be networked with other Seametrics Smart Sensors, either directly from a single computer or via a third party System.
(Note: the individual probe units do not have internal batteries.) Connect the Seametrics USB communication cable to the male connector on the power box. (For alternate connection options, see Appendix B.) Aux.
The black reference reservoir at the lower end of the TempHion Smart Sensor is shipped filled with Seametrics reference solution. (If your reference reservoir is not filled, see the Maintenance section of the TempHion manual.) The black reference assembly has two grooves. The upper groove contains a small hole that forms the liquid junction port.

When using pH, ppm, or mVH units, all readings are automatically compensated for temperature and all field calibration factors are applied. When using millivolts or ohms, only the actual millivolt or resistance values are displayed - no adjustments are made. Seametrics • 253.872.0284 Page 11 seametrics.com...
