Thank you for purchasing the YSI Pro1030, an instrument from the YSI 

Professional Series

 product family. The Pro1030 measures conductivity, 

temperature and either pH or oRP in water. The Pro1030 features an 
impact resistant and waterproof (IP-67) case, a rugged MS-8 (military-
spec) cable connector, backlit display, user-selectable sensor options, 
50 data set memory and a rubber over-mold case.     

The Pro1030 provides valuable instructions and prompts near the 
bottom of the display that will guide you through operation and use; 
however, reading the entire manual is recommended for a better 
understanding of the instrument’s features.

InItIal InspectIon

Carefully unpack the instrument and accessories and inspect for 
damage.  Compare received parts with items on the packing list. If 
any parts or materials are damaged or missing, contact YSI Customer 
Service at 800-897-4151 (+1 937 767-7241) or the authorized YSI 
distributor from whom the instrument was purchased.

Battery InstallatIon

The instrument requires 2 alkaline C-cell batteries. Under normal 
conditions, the average battery life is

 

425 hours at room temperature 

without using the back light. A battery symbol 

 

will blink in 

the lower, left corner of the display to indicate low batteries when 
approximately 1 hour of battery life remains. 

To install or replace the batteries:

1. Turn the instrument off and flip over to view the battery cover

on the back.

2. Unscrew the four captive battery cover screws.
3. Remove the battery cover and remove the old batteries if

necessary.

The Pro1030 cannot communicate to a PC via a ProComm 
communications saddle.
