TAKING PH MEASUREMENTS

Connect the instrument to the 12VDC adapter (HI710005 or

Make sure that the instrument has been calibrated for pH before

taking pH measurements (see page 18).

For HI8519 only:

• Connect the pH electrode to the meter and switch

the instrument on by pressing the ON/OFF key.

• Immerse the electrode tip (4 cm/1½") into the sample and shake

briefly.

• Take the temperature of the solution with a

ChecktempC or a glass thermometer (e.g.25°C).

• Press the °C key to display temperature settings on

the LCD.

• Adjust the Temperature °C knob to display the

temperature of the sample.

• Press the pH key to display the pH measurement.

• The display shows the pH value of the test solution

compensated for temperature.

For HI8417, HI8520, HI8521 only:

• Connect the electrode and the temperature

probe (if automatic temperature compensa-

tion is desired).

• Press the ON/OFF key to turn the meter on. The

meter will automatically default to the pH measure-
