    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. Changing the Measurement Function The meter can be set to measure Conductivity, TDS (ppm), TDS (mg/L) or Salinity (ppm).
  • Page 10: 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 12: Calibration

    CALIBRATION (SALT/TDS) For the most accurate results, allow suffi cient time for the temperature of the probe to reach the temperature of the sample before calibrating. This will be indicated by a stable temperature reading on the display Meter accuracy verifi cation should be performed on a periodic/monthly basis as needed.

  • Page 15: Maintenance Care/Storage Of Electrode

    MAINTENANCE Care/Storage of Electrode Always rinse the electrode in distilled, tap or deionized water between measurements to avoid cross contamination. Double rinsing is recommended when high accuracy is required. Store the electrode dry with the cap on. Do not touch the electrodes. Touching the surface of the platinized electrodes may damage and reduce the life of the electrodes.
