INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Myron L ULTRAPEN™ PT2 pH
Pen. This instrument is designed to be extremely accurate,
fast and simple to use in diverse water quality applications.
Advanced features include automatic temperature
compensation; highly stable microprocessor-based circuitry;
user-intuitive design; and waterproof housing. A true one-
handed instrument, the PT2 is easy to calibrate and easy to
use. To take a measurement, you simply push a button then
dip the pen in solution. Results display in seconds.
FEATURES
1. Push Button — turns instrument on; selects mode and unit preferences.
2. Battery Cap — provides access to battery for replacement.
3. Pocket Clip — holds pen to shirt pocket for secure storage.
4. Battery Indicator — indicates life remaining in battery.
5. Display — displays measurements, menu options, battery indicator, and
firmware revision (during power-up).
6. LED Indicator Light — indicates when to dip instrument in solution, when
measurement is in progress, and when to remove instrument from solution.
7. pH Sensor — measures hydrogen ion concentration of solution.
8. Soaker Cap — contains pH Sensor Storage Solution to maintain sensor hydration.
To remove, twist the soaker cap while pulling off using caution not to spill the Storage
Solution. To replace, fill the soaker cap half full with storage solution. Twist the soaker
cap while pushing back on using caution as excess Storage Solution may squirt out.
CAUTION: Fill the soaker cap ONLY half full of solution for storage.
CAUTION: Do NOT push the soaker cap beyond the Cap Stop as sensor damage
WILL occur.
NOTE: The formation of KCl crystals around the soaker cap is normal. These
crystals do not affect the sensor life, performance, or accuracy provided they are
rinsed off with water prior to a test.
9. Scoop — used to hold sample solution when dipping is not
possible. To install, push the scoop onto the sensor while
shifting side-to-side. To remove, pull the
scoop off while shifting side-to-side. Verify
the pH sensor remained fully inserted into the PT2. If not, reinstall per pH Sensor
Replacement, p. 5. To use, pour solution into the scoop or hold the scoop directly
under a vertical stream to collect sample.
10. Holster — run your belt through the strap in the back of the holster for hands-
free portability.
11. Lanyard — attach through hole in top of pocket clip.
