3 Preparation Before Use Pull out the battery insulation slip, and take off the probe cap. Rinse off the probe in pure water (preferably distilled or deionized water. RO water or tap water is the alternative) , then shake off excess water. Perform calibration.
4.1.7 If necessary (target pH > 8.00), calibrate 3rd point using 10.01 standard pH buffer and repeat Step 4.1.3 to 4.1.5, will show up next to , indicating a successful 3- point calibration (high, low, and middle points). Notes about Calibration a) The 1 point calibration must be 7.00 pH.
Pure Water pH Measurement When testing pure water like tap water, drinking water, RO water and distilled water, it will take longer for the readings to get fully stabilized (typically 1-5 minutes). Please be patient. If still not working, add Apera 3M KCL (AI1107) to your pure water at the ratio of 1:1000 (e.g.
stabilized ( comes up and stays). Press to switch from conductivity to TDS, and Salinity. Unit Conversion a) 1000 µS/cm = 1 mS/cm = 1 EC (In conductivity mode, the unit will automatically turn from µS to mS if the reading is greater than 1999 µS, meaning you will only see 2.XX mS instead of 2XXX µS) b) 1000 ppm = 1 ppt (In TDS mode, the unit will automatically turn from ppm to ppt if the reading is greater than 999 ppm, meaning you will only see 1.XX ppt instead of 1XXX...
the cap with the O-ring. For long-term storage (you are not going to use the product for a while), add 3M KCL soaking solution to the Fill line in the probe cap and store the probe in it. Close on the probe cap tightly with the O-ring.
b) Automatic lock (P2): Select “On” to activate auto lock function. When reading is stable for more than 10 seconds, the tester will lock the value automatically, and HOLD icon will display on LCD. Press to cancel auto. hold. c) Backlight (P3) “Off”-turn off backlight, “On”-turn on backlight, 1- backlight will last for 1 minute.
