SETUP CONFIGURATION MENU Calibration timeout Options: Disabled or 1 to 7 days. The titrator’s setup configuration menu may be accessed from the pH or titration screens by pressing the MENU key, then Setup. This option is used to set the number of days before the pH calibration expired warning message is flagged.

1.68, 4.01 and 8.30 pH. For a single point calibration any of the three buffers may be used, but using 8.30 pH is recommended. Note: The HI 84430 will not accept other pH buffers for calibration. • Pour small quantities of selected buffer solutions into clean beakers. For accurate calibration use two beakers for each buffer solution, the first one for rinsing the electrode and the second one for calibration.

• If the measured offset isn’t within the preset limits the meter will display the message “Buffer pH BUFFER TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE Contaminated” alternatively with ”Electrode Dirty/Broken”. The temperature has an effect on pH. The calibration buffer solutions are affected by temperature changes to a lesser degree than normal solutions.
PUMP TUBE INSTALLATION To mount the new peristaltic pump tube set follow next steps: • Position one peristaltic pump fixing ring on its location. • Stretch the tube over the peristaltic pump rolls. • Attach the second pump fixing ring on its location. •...
