General Description & Intended Use

HI98129

 & 

HI98130

 are compact pH, EC/TDS and temperature 

testers. They feature a two-buttons operation system and are easy 

to use. The compact and waterproof casing is designed to float if 

accidentally dropped in water. The testers measure temperature in 

both °C and °F. All pH and EC/TDS measurements are temperature 

compensated automatically (ATC). EC/TDS measurements have 

user-selectable EC/TDS conversion factor (CONV) and temperature 

compensation coefficient (ß). The testers display a stability tag ( ) 

that will disappear once the reading has stabilized.

Battery level and low-battery indicator are clearly displayed on 

the LCD to alert the user in the event that low battery power could 

adversely affect readings. 

BEPS (Battery Error Prevention System) Testers will automatically 

shut off if there is not enough power to get an accurate measurement.

pH Probe:

 

HI98129

 & 

HI98130

 are supplied together with 

HI73127

 

pH replaceable electrode with a stainless steel round connector and 

extendable cloth junction. This design has no pins to line up or that 

can break.

Temperature Sensor:

 The stainless steel temperature sensor 

facilitates faster and more accurate temperature measurement.

Operational Guide

Turning the Tester ON / OFF

Press and hold  /MODE. All LCD segments will be displayed for a 

few seconds followed by battery life percentage indicator. To turn the 

tester off, from measurement mode, press  /MODE. “OFF” will be 

displayed on the second LCD line and then the tester will turn off.

HOLD Mode 

From measurement mode, press and hold SET/HOLD until “HOLD” is 

displayed. pH, EC/TDS or temperature readings will be frozen on the 

LCD. Press either buttons to resume measurement mode.

Setup

Setup mode allows the selection of temperature unit and pH buffer set. To 

enter the setup mode, select pH mode and press  /MODE until “TEMP” 

and the current temperature unit are displayed (e.g. “TEMP °C”). Then:

• Press SET/HOLD to select temperature unit. After the temperature 

unit has been selected, press  /MODE to select the buffer set. To 

return to measurement mode, press  /MODE twice.

• After setting the temperature unit, the tester will display the current 

buffer set: “pH7.01 BUFF” (for pH 4.01/7.01/10.01) or “pH6.86 

BUFF” (for NIST pH 4.01/6.86/9.18). Press SET/HOLD to change 

the buffer set and press  /MODE to resume measurement mode.

pH Calibration & Measurement

It is recommended to calibrate the tester frequently, especially if high 

accuracy is required. More frequent calibrations may be required depending 

on the type of sample being tested. The tester should be recalibrated:

• whenever the pH electrode is replaced

• at least once a month

• after testing aggressive samples

From measurement mode, press and hold  /MODE until “CAL” is 

displayed. The tester enters calibration mode and displays “pH 7.01 

USE” or “pH 6.86 USE”, if NIST buffer was selected. Buffer value 

will be displayed on the first LCD line and “REC” message will be 

displayed on the second line. If used buffer was not valid, “USE” 

message will be displayed for 12 seconds and replaced by “WRNG” 

indicating measured sample is not valid.

• For one-point calibration using pH 4.01, 10.01 or 9.18 buffer solution, 

once the reading has stabilized, the tester automatically accepts the 

calibration point. Accepted buffer point and “OK 1” message are 

displayed and then the tester returns to measurement mode.

• For one-point calibration using pH 7.01 (or 6.86) buffer solution, 

press  /MODE after calibration point has been accepted. The 

tester will display “pH 7.01” (or “pH 6.86”) and “OK 1” and then  

return to measurement mode.

• For a two-point calibration using pH 7.01 (or pH 6.86) buffer solution, 

after the first calibration point has been accepted, “pH 4.01 USE” will 

be displayed for 12 seconds (unless a valid buffer is recognized). 

• If valid buffer solution is recognized (pH 4.01, 10.01 or 9.18), 

the calibration point is accepted and the accepted value and “OK 

2” are displayed. The tester then returns to measurement mode.

• If no valid buffer solution is recognized, “WRNG” message is displayed.

Note: 

When the calibration procedure is completed, the “CAL” 

tag is turned on.

Exiting Calibration & Resetting Default Values

• When in calibration mode, it is possible to exit calibration 

procedure by pressing  /MODE, before first-point calibration 

has been accepted. The tester displays “ESC” and returns to 

measurement mode and last calibrated data.

• When in calibration mode, it is possible  to clear a previous 

calibration and return to default values by pressing SET/HOLD, 

before the first calibration point has been accepted. The tester 

displays  “CLR” on the second LCD line, “CAL” tag dissappears and 

tester returns to default calibration.
