• Each meter is supplied complete with a 9V battery. Remove the
battery compartment cover on the back of the meter (see
page 16). Install the battery while paying attention to its
polarity.
• Connect the probe to the meter securely
by aligning the pins with the socket
and pushing the plug in.
• Make sure that the meter has been calibrated before taking any
measurements (see "Calibration" section).
• Immerse the conductivity probe into the
sample, with the holes on the shaft
completely submerged.
If possible, use plastic beakers or con-
tainers to minimize any EMC interference.
• Tap the probe lightly on the bottom of the beaker to remove any
air bubbles which may be trapped inside the PVC sleeve.
• Turn the instrument on by pressing the ON/OFF key.
• For HI 8633 and HI 8734:
Take the temperature of the solution
with a ChecktempC or another accurate
thermometer.
Press the COND/TEMP key for HI 8633 or TDS/TEMP for HI 8734
to display the temperature and adjust the temperature knob to
that of the solution e.g. 20°C.
• For HI 8733:
Adjust the TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT
knob to 2% to compensate for the
temperature effect of average solutions
(to determine exact value for a particu-
lar solution, see page 14).
