Installation 6
Measure and adjust the pH level of water
After the Alkaline Ionizer has been installed or after it has not been used for a prolonged period (generally, a week or more),
be absolutely sure to measure the pH level, and check that it is within the “pH standard” before using the Alkaline Ionizer.
Remember to measure the pH level periodically (at least once a month).

What is the pH level (ion concentration)?
The pH level indicates the degree of alkalinity, neutrality or acidity of
water (aqueous solutions), and stands for “hydrogen ion exponent.”
Procedure for measurement
What to have ready: pH test kit (supplied accessory)
Measure with Alkaline 3 and weak acidic water respectively.
1
Put 2 drops of pH test liquid in to the test tube.
The pH cannot be determined accurately any amount other than 2
drops.
If the test water is placed before the pH test liquid is added, the two
liquids may not be evenly mixed, leading to incorrect measurement.
2
Place the water generated by this machine
in a regular cup.
Flush water at least 10 seconds in order to
obtain a stable pH level.
3
Put the sample water into the test tube.
If some of the test water is fi rst collected in a glass and
then poured into the test tube, it will be easier to align the
level with the line inside the test tube.
So long as the water inside the test tube is within 5 mm
above or below the line, no problems will be posed in the
pH level measurement: there is no need to adjust the level
until it comes up to the exact level of the line.
Pour the water until
it is near the line
inside the test tube.
4
Under the enough light,
compare the result with the pH Chart.
The color of the test water will change as time passes.
Compare its pH level against
the pH Chart right away.
