PREFACE

 

 
 
Congratulations  with  your  "Nieuwkoop"  EC/pH/°C-meter  with  automatic  temperature  compensation 
and calibration. 
 
With the EP1400 it is very easy to measure EC, pH and temperature in liquids and soils. 
 
The  instrument  is  supplied  in  a  useful  carrying  case  complete  with  calibration  liquids  and  all  the 
accessories needed for measuring water and soil samples. 
 
Due to 60 years of experience from Nieuwkoop BV in the agriculture and horticulture, the reliability, user-
friendliness and accuracy of the instrument are guaranteed. 
 
We wish you good luck with the instrument.
