1. Introduction
Thank you for selecting an accumet
®
AP85 meter. This portable meter is a
microprocessor-based instrument that measures pH, conductivity, Total Dissolved
Solids (TDS) and temperature. Your meter has many user-friendly features, all of
which are accessible through the membrane keypad.
Your meter includes a single-junction pH electrode, a combination conductivity/
temperature probe, and batteries. Please read this manual thoroughly before
operating your meter.
2. Display and Keypad Functions
Display
The LCD has a primary and secondary display.
• The primary display shows the measured pH or conductivity reading.
• The secondary display shows the temperature of the reading.
The display also shows error messages, keypad functions and program functions.
