RO

 

features the ability to measure the activity of oxidizing or 

reducing chemicals in solution as ORP mV. The instrument also includes 

an innovative Free Chlorine Equivalent (FC

E

) feature (Measuring Free 

Chlorine  Using FC

E

, pg. 22) that uses ORP and pH to measure free 

available chlorine (FAC) concentration in ppm.  ORP mV and ppm of 

free available chlorine (FAC) are the two most commonly used sanitizer 

units of measure in water quality management.

 Mode Selection

The P

OOL

P

RO

 allows the user to choose between measuring oxidizing 

sanitizers using either ORP mV or as parts per million (ppm) of equivalent 

free chlorine. Use ORP to directly measure the oxidizing power of all 

sanitizers like ozone, bromine, peracetic acid or chlorine. Use FC

E

 to 

measure the strength of oxidizing sanitizers as ppm of equivalent free 

chlorine.  To select between ORP and Free Chlorine modes:
1. 

Press

 

.

2. 

Press and hold

 

 for approximately 3 seconds. 

The current preference for ORP units of measure is displayed. Factory 

setting for this preference is ORP mV.

3. 

Press the 

 or 

 

keys to toggle between mV (standard 

 

ORP mode) and FC

Press any parameter key to exit ORP unit preference selection 

or let the PS9 time out. ORP unit preference will be saved.
