5.1.1 Measuring the pH value

When connecting an earthed PC/printer, measurements cannot be 
performed in earthed media as the values would be incorrect.

 

The USB interface is not galvanically isolated.

Stability control 

(AutoRead) 

& HOLD function

The stability control function (

AutoRead

) continually checks the stability of the 

measurement signal. The stability has a considerable impact on the reproduc-
ibility of measured values. 
The measured parameter flashes on the display

as soon as the measured value is outside the stability range 

when the automatic 

Stability control

 is switched off.

You can activate or switch off the automatic 

Stability control

 function (see 

section 7.1.1 C

MEASUREMENTS

, page 38).

To ensure the high measurement accuracy of the measuring sys-
tem, always measure with a calibrated electrode (see section 5.2 
C

ALIBRATION

, page 25).

1.

Connect the pH electrode to the meter.

2.

If necessary, select the measured parameter with 

<M>

.

3.

When measuring without temperature sensor: 
Temper the test sample or measure the current temperature and enter it 
with 

<

> <

>

.

4.

Immerse the pH electrode in the test sample.
The measured value is checked for stability (automatic stability control). 
The display of the measured parameter flashes.

5.

Wait for a stable measured value.
The display of the measured parameter no longer flashes.
