3 USING THE METER
3.1 Electrodes
This meter allows you to use two types of electrodes: the
conventional glass pH electrode and the Eutech Instruments field
effect transistor (FET) pH electrode. If both types of pH electrodes
are connected, the meter will read the FET electrode.
1.
Carefully remove the protective cover from the end of the
electrode. Before first using your glass pH electrode, or
whenever the pH electrode is dry, soak it 2-4 hours in
electrode storage solution, pH 4 buffer, or KCI solution.
2.
Remove the shorting cap on BNC connector. Install the
combination pH electrode by plugging it into the BNC input
connector (Twisting to lock in place).
If a combination electrode isn’t used, install the indicating pH
electrode into the BNC input connector. Plug the reference
electrode into the reference pin jack. Also, install the ATC probe into
the ATC jack.
Option: install the optional FET electrode by plugging it into the FET
jack on the back meter panel. Allow the Eutech Instruments electrode
to warm up five minutes before use.
