OPERATION:
• The meter is supplied complete with a
9V battery. Slide off the battery com-
partment cover on the back of the
meter. Install the battery while paying
attention to its polarity.
• Connect the probe to the meter se-
curely by aligning the pins with the
plug in.
• Make sure that the meter has been
calibrated before taking any measure-
ments (see Calibration Procedure)
• Immerse the tip (4 cm) of the EC/TDS
probe into the sample. If possible use
plastic beakers or containers to mini-
mize any EMC interference.
• Turn the instrument on by pressing
the ON/OFF key.
• Wait for the temperature sensor to reach the thermal equi-
librium before taking any measurements.
• After use, the instrument should be switched off and the
probe should be cleaned and dried. Whenever needed,
use alcohol for better cleaning.
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE:
• Clean the probe with alcohol and let it dry.
• Open a sachet of conductivity calibration solution
(see Specifications) and immerse the probe mak-
ing sure that the metal pins are completely
submerged.
• Wait until the thermal equilibrium is reached and
the reading is stable.
• Adjust the calibration trimmer on the rear
of the instrument with the supplied
screwdriver until the display shows:
"1410" µS/cm for SM301
"5.0" mS/cm for SM302
"1380" mg/L (ppm) for SM401
"6.4" g/L (ppt) for SM402
• The calibration is now complete and the
meter is ready for use.
The instrument should be re-calibrated at least once a month,
or when the probe or battery is changed.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT:
When the battery becomes weak the meter will display "V".
When the low battery indicator appears, the battery has only
about 50 hours of working time left. A low battery will result in
unreliable measurements. It is recommended to replace im-
mediately the battery.
Battery replacement must only take place in a non-hazardous
area using an alkaline 9V battery.
Turn the meter off, slide off the battery compartment cover at
the rear of the meter and replace the 9V battery with a new
one. Make sure the battery contacts are tight and secure, seat
the battery in its compartment and insert the cover again.
