• Stir gently and wait a couple of minutes for thermal equilibrium.
Note: The electrode should be submerged approximately 4 cm (1½")
into the solution. The temperature probe should be located as
close as possible to the pH electrode.
• Press °C to display the temperature of the buffer (e.g. 20.0°C).
• Press the pH key to read pH values. Stir
gently and wait for a couple of minutes.
• Adjust the OFFSET trimmer on the front panel until LCD shows the
pH value at the noted temperature (see the pH vs. temperature
chart on page 18).
• Rinse and immerse pH electrode and tem-
perature probe in pH 4.01 or pH 10.01
buffer (2
nd calibration point); stir gently.
• Wait a couple of minutes and adjust the SLOPE trimmer on the
front panel until the LCD shows the pH value at the noted
temperature.
The pH calibration is now complete.

PROCEDURE FOR HI 931000
• Turn the meter on.
Note: The "
∆
" indicator blinks when the reading is not stable.
• Press CAL and the display will flash "7.01
∆
".
• Remove the electrode protective cap, rinse the electrode tip with
some pH 7.01 solution, then immerse the pH electrode and
temperature probe in a pH 7.01 buffer solution.
• Stir gently and wait a couple of min-
utes for thermal equilibrium.
Note: The electrode should be submerged
approximately 4 cm (1½") in the
solution.
• When electrode has stabilized, the "
∆
" indicator stops flashing.
Press CFM to confirm the first buffer solution.
• To quit the calibration mode and save a one-point (offset)
procedure, press the ON/OFF key. For best accuracy, however, it
is recommended to perform a two-point calibration.
• The LCD will now blink "4.01
∆
".
pH 10.01 can be selected by pressing
the CAL key.
• Rinse the electrode with the second
buffer solution (pH 4.01 or pH 10.01).
• Dip the electrode into the buffer solution, stir gently and wait
until the instability indicator "
∆
" stops flashing. Press CFM to
confirm the second buffer solution.
The meter is now calibrated and will return to operational mode.
