GENERAL INTRODUCTION Thank you for selecting the 3177M meter. The 3177M is a precision tool that measures Conductivity, Salinity, TDS and temperature. A built-in microprocessor stores, calculates and compensates for all parameters related to Conductivity. The 3177M is a 5th generation Conductivity/ Salinity/TDS/temperature benchtop meter.
INSTALLING THE BATTERIES To insert the batteries into the meter, follow the procedure outlined below. Use a Philip screw driver and unlock the battery cover by turning the screw driver in the counter clockwise direction. After unlocking the screw, take off the battery cover (Fig.1) Replace the old batteries with new ones and install them on the correct polarity position.
B. Operational Keys Description Figure 4 Description Cal- In conductivity measure mode, press this key to go to the “Calibration” mode. Mode/Clear- Selects display mode. Pressing this key changes the display sequentially to display Conductivity, Salinity, TDS, Recall, Delete One and Delete All. Mode In the conductivity (salinity, TDS) mode, when the Clear...

Temperature Coefficient The unit uses the temperature coefficient to calculate temperature compensated conductivity. The default value is 1.91%. To change the Temperature Coefficient, use the “Up” or “Down” keys to adjust the value between 0.00 to 4.00%. Press “Enter” key to save the new value and go to the next calibration parameter.
probe with the CELL K= staying on. Adjust the probe constant to a known value by pressing the “Up” or “Down” keys. You can now input the K value (from 70% to 130% of the probe basic cell constant). Press the “Enter” key to exit calibration and return to normal operation.
Here are some standard solutions the user can prepare to calibrate the probe of the model 3177M. 1. Standard solution of 1413 uS/cm at 25 ℃: Accurately weight out 0.746 grams of research grade dried Potassium Chloride (KCL).
