OPERATION
This section contains basic operating instructions, to
insure accurate results and for more advanced functions,
refer to the additional sections that follow.
1. Remove the protective cover from the probe head.
2. Turn the meter on by pressing the
ON/OFF
SET
button.
3. Press the
Ç
MODE
button to select the desired unit of
measure (conductivity or TDS).
4. Place the probe head into the solution to be measured.
5. To insure Automatic Temperature Compensation,
immerse the probe head and temperature sensor
completely. For accurate Automatic Temperature
Compensation, the temperature sensor must reach
equilibrium with the liquid being measured, this could
take several minutes.
6. Insure that there is adequate movement of the liquid
around the tip of the probe head (0.2 - 0.3 meters per
second minimum). This can be achieved by stirring the
meter in the liquid.
The meter will automatically select the range that is the
most appropriate for the value being measured. For
example, when measuring a 500 µS solution, the meter
will select the µS range and display 500 µS as opposed
to displaying 0.50 mS. To manually select the range,
press and hold the
Ç
MODE
button for approximately three
(3) seconds, if the value being measured is able to be
displayed in the alternate range, the meter will switch
ranges (see the “Range Mode Selection” section).
7. Take the desired measurements.
8. Press the
ON/OFF
SET
button to turn the meter off.
To preserve battery life, always turn the meter off when
not in use.
9. Rinse the probe head with distilled/deionized water and
replace the protective cover. Always replace the
protective cover to prevent damage to the probe head.
If no button is pressed for twenty (20) minutes, the meter
will turn off automatically to preserve battery life (see the
“Automatic Shutoff” section).
POWER ON DISPLAY SEQUENCE
When the meter is turned on (by pressing the
ON/OFF
SET
button), the display will cycle through showing the
following items:
All Segments - Display check

“Selecting Temperature Normalization Value”
section)

ran Range display mode (see the “Range Mode
Selection” section).
CONDUCTIVITY CALIBRATION
One calibration point may be entered for each of the
measurement ranges (0 to 1999 µS and 0.00 to 19.99 mS).
To insure accuracy:
–Always use Traceable
®
Conductivity Standards
–Select a Traceable
®
Conductivity Standard with a value
as close as possible to the value of the unknown sample.
–If possible, the Traceable
®
Conductivity Standard and
unknown sample should be at the same temperature.
The ideal temperature is 25 °C.
Previous calibration points are cleared when the meter is
calibrated to a new value.
1. Remove the protective cover from the probe head.
2. Turn the meter on by pressing the
ON/OFF
SET
button.
3. Place the probe head into the Traceable
®
Conductivity
Standard.
4. To insure Automatic Temperature Compensation,
immerse the probe head and temperature sensor
completely. For accurate Automatic Temperature
Compensation, the temperature sensor must reach
equilibrium with the liquid being measured, this could
take several minutes.
5. Insure that there is adequate movement of the liquid
around the tip of the probe head (0.2 - 0.3 meters per
second minimum). This can be achieved by stirring the
meter in the liquid.
6. Press and hold the
È
HLD/CAL
button for approximately
three (3) seconds, CAL will appear at the top of the
displayandtheconductivitymeasurementwillash.
7. Press the
Ç
MODE
and/or
È
HLD/CAL
buttons to adjust the
display to the know value of the Traceable
®
Conductivity
Standard. The meter may only be adjusted by ±30%
of the detected value.
8. With the the know value of the Traceable
®
Conductivity
StandardappearingandCALnolongerashing,
press the
ON/OFF
SET
button, the meter will return to the
measurement display.

measured exceeds the measurement range of
the unit.
E04 Indicates that the value of the solution being
measured exceeds the measurement range of
the unit based on a temperature measurement
error (see the “Lower Display Messages” section).
Lower Display Messages:
E0
1
Indicates that the temperature sensor is damaged.
E0
2
Indicates that the temperature of the solution
being measured is below the measurement
range of the unit.
E0
3
Indicates that the temperature of the solution
being measured is above the measurement
range of the unit.
ALL OPERATION DIFFICULTIES
If this meter does not function properly for any reason,
replace the batteries with a new, high quality batteries
(see the “Battery Replacement” section). Low battery
power can occasionally cause an number of “apparent”
operationaldifculties.Replacingthebatterieswithnew
freshbatterieswillsolvemostdifculties.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
An erratic display, faint display, no display, or a battery
symbol appearing on the display are all indicators that
the batteries need replacement. The battery cover is
located at the top of the unit. Unscrew the battery cover
by turning it counter-clockwise. Remove the exhausted
batteries and replace them with four (4) new #357/LR44
size silver oxide batteries. Make certain to insert the
new batteries with the proper polarity as indicated by the
“+” and “–” symbols in the battery compartment. The
