Connecting the Electrode Holder (Optional)
The electrode holder is a useful tool for mounting electrodes during measurement or when
electrodes are being stored. The meter’s base plate (bottom of meter, shown in
Figure 1
)
has a side metal bar to which a swivel electrode holder can be attached. The electrode
holder can be mounted on either the right or left side of the meter.
Figure 1:
To position the electrode arm:
Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screw holding the electrode holder. Slide the side
metal bar until the second screw slot lines up with the original screw hole. Use the screw
removed earlier to secure the electrode holder into position.
Note:
The side metal bar is reversible. If desired, remove screw holding electrode holder
base and slide out of brackets, Slide base into brackets on opposite side and tighten screw.
To install the electrode arm to the meter:
To mount the electrode arm into the metal rod on the side bar, align the slot with the metal
rod and base of electrode arm, see
Figure 2
. Push it downwards until it fully sits into position.
Avoid using excessive force when fixing or removing. The electrode arm is ready for use.
Note:
Move the base of the electrode holder to swing the electrode holder about. To prevent
the meter from toppling or causing spills, DO NOT move the body of the electrode holder.
