Dear Customer, Thank you for choosing a Hanna Instruments product. Please read this instruction manual carefully before using these instruments. This manual will provide you with the necessary information for correct use of these instruments, as well as a precise idea of their versatility.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION HI2400 is a logging microprocessor‑based DO/Temperature bench meter. It can store up to 100 lots in memory, with up to 8000 readings. These readings can be transferred to a computer for further analysis or permanent storage.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Front Panel Rear Panel 1) Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). 2) CAL key, to enter and exit calibration mode. 3) CFM/GLP key, to confirm calibration selection, different setup values or to display Good Laboratory Practice information. 4) ºC key, to manually increase temperature value or other param‑ eters.
SPECIFICATIONS 0.00 to 45.00 ppm RANGE 0.0 to 300.0% 0.0 to 50.0 ºC (32.0 to 122°F) 0.01 ppm RESOLUTION 0.1% 0.1 °C ±1.5% of full scale or ±1 digit, ACCURACY whichever is greater (@20 °C / 68 °F) ±0.2 ºC (excluding probe error) ±1.5% of full scale Typical EMC Deviation ±0.5 ºC...
Probes shipped from Hanna Instruments are dry. To hydrate the probe and prepare it for use, connect it to the meter and proceed as follows: 1.

INSTRUMENT START-UP • Turn the instrument on by pressing the ON/OFF switch. • All LCD tags are displayed and a beep is generated while the instru‑ ment performs a self test. • The instrument will display “ ” blinking until initialization is complete.

SALINITY AND ALTITUDE COMPENSATION If the sample contains significant concentration of salinity or if you are performing measurements at an altitude different from sea level, the read out values must be corrected, taking into account the lower degree of oxygen solubility in these situations (see pages 15‑16). Remember to set the altitude and/or the salinity before taking any DO measurements.
The instrument can be calibrated in maximum 2 points: 0.0% (zero calibration) and 100.0% (slope calibration). The zero calibration of the HI2400 is very stable, therefore this procedure needs to be performed only whenever the probe or the membrane is replaced.

• Press CAL. The instrument will return to measure‑ ment mode and will memorize the zero calibration data. For a two‑point calibration do not press CAL and follow the procedure below. SLOPE CALIBRATION It is suggested to perform the slope calibration in air. •...
GOOD LABORATORY PRACTICE (GLP) GLP is a set of functions that allows storage and retrieval of data regarding the maintenance and status of the system. All data regarding DO calibration is stored for the user to review when necessary. LAST DO CALIBRATION DATA The last DO calibration data is stored automatically after a successful calibration.
SETUP Setup mode allows viewing and modifying the following parameters: • Salinity Factor • Altitude Factor • Log Interval • Current Time (hour & minute) • Current Date (month, day & year) • Beep Status • Instrument ID • Temperature Unit To enter the Setup mode press SETUP while the instrument is in mea‑...

CURRENT TIME Press CAL when the current time is displayed. The hour and “CFM” tag will start blinking. Press the ARROW keys to change the hour. Press RANGE. The minutes will start blinking. Press the ARROW keys to change the minutes. Press CFM to save the modified value.
Page 18
BEEP STATUS Press CAL when the beep status is displayed. The beep status (“ON” or “OFF”) and “CFM” tag will start blinking. Press the ARROW keys to change the beep status. Press CFM to save the modified value or press CAL to escape without saving.
LOGGING This function allows the user to log DO (in ppm or %) together with temperature automatically, for long periods of time. All logged data can be stored into a PC through the USB port. The memory used for storing the logged data is divided in 32 pages. The capacity of each page is 250 samples.

If the log space is full, the “FULL LOG” message will be displayed and no more data will be saved. Note: When pressing any key that is not active, while lot logging is running, the following message is displayed for a few seconds. VIEW LOGGED DATA Press the RCL key while in measurement mode to retrieve the stored information.

• The date on the primary LCD, along with “DATE”, month and day tags. • The salinity on the primary LCD and “SAL” message on the secondary LCD. • The altitude on the primary LCD and “ALt” message on the secondary LCD.
If the temperature measurements are not accurate, temperature recali‑ bration should be performed. For an accurate recalibration, contact your local Hanna Instruments Office, or follow the procedure below. • Prepare a vessel containing ice and water and another one containing hot water (at a temperature of around 50 °C).
Page 23
• Submerse the DO probe in the second vessel as near as possible to the reference thermometer. Allow a few seconds for the probe to stabilize. • Use the ARROW keys to set the reading on the secondary LCD to that of the hot water. •...

PROBE AND MEMBRANE MAINTENANCE The oxygen probe body is made of reinforced plastic for maximum durability. A thermistor temperature sensor provides temperature measurements of the sample. Use the protective probe cap when not in use. To replace the membrane or refill with electrolyte, proceed as follows: •...
Important In order to have accurate and stable measurements, it is important that the membrane surface is in perfect condition. This semipermeable membrane isolates the sensor elements from the environment but allows oxygen to enter. If any dirt is observed on the membrane, rinse carefully with distilled or deionized water.
