HI 4321

is a professional bench meter with color graphic LCD for conductivity, resistivity, TDS, salinity and

temperature measurements.

The display viewing modes are: Basic information only, GLP information, Graph and Log History mode.

The main features of the instruments are:

• One input channel;

• Five measurement parameters: conductivity, resistivity, TDS, salinity and temperature;

• Pure water checking using the USP <645> standard;

• Automatic or custom standard conductivity calibration in up to four points, probe offset calibration;

• One fixed point salinity calibration (Percent Scale only);

• AutoHold feature to freeze the stable reading on the LCD;

• Two selectable alarm limits (for conductivity, resistivity, TDS, salinity);

• Three selectable logging modes: Automatic logging, Log on demand (manual logging) and AutoHold logging

mode;

• Up to 100 logging lots for automatic or manual modes and up to 200 USP reports;

• Selectable area and settable sampling period feature for automatic logging;

• GLP feature;

• Online and offline graph;

• User-friendly interface on large color graphic LCD (240x320 pixels);
• Opto-isolated PC interface via RS232 respectively USB.
