Overview Keypad Function • Switch the meter on or off • Lock or unlock the measurement • Exit the calibration, settings, data logs and return to the measurement mode • Set the temperature • Start calibration • Press and hold the key to enter the setup menu Note, take out the batteries before connecting an external power supply. -
Page 4: Meter Setup
Meter Setup If enabled, the meter will automatically switch off if no key is pressed within 30 minutes. The 520 meter contains 10 menu items in setup menu. The following table describes the functions of each menu item. Enable Disable (default) -
Page 5: Automatic Temperature Compensation
Temperature Compensation Temperature Compensation The temperature compensation has a large effect on the conductivity Option measurement. If enabled, the meter will use the measured conductivity Menu item and temperature readings to calculate the results and automatically compensate to the selected reference temperature. If the temperature coefficient is set to 0, the temperature compensation will be disabled and the meter only shows the actual conductivity at the measured temperature. -
Page 6: Conductivity Calibration
Calibration Selecting a Conductivity Electrode The 520 meter is capable of using the three types of conductivity electrodes. Before the calibration and measurement, ensure that you have selected a suitable electrode according to the anticipated sample conductivity. The following table lists the selectable electrode and its effective measurement ranges. -
