GENERAL INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting the 6177M/6177EU meter. The
6177M/6177EU is a precision tool that measures pH, mV
(
RmV
)
and temperature. A built-in microprocessor stores, calculates and
compensates for all parameters related to pH determinations
including pH electrode temperature characteristics, electrode slope
deviations, offset and buffer solutions.
This meter has a waterproof IP54 case. The mechanical keys are
highly reliable with tactile and audio feedback. It is powered by six
AAA-size alkaline batteries or with a UL/CE approved AC adapter
(OUTPUT:DC 9 V). The meter also displays a “BAT” message when
the batteries are in need of replacement. Re-calibration is not
required when power is restored.
The front of the meter has a large LCD that displays pH , mV , Rmv
and temperature simultaneously along with user prompts and mode
indicators. The unit prompts the user through calibration and
measurement procedures.
An AUTOLOCK feature for both pH and mV
(
RmV
)
measurements
enables the unit to automatically sense the end point and the
“LOCK” display indicates the end point value of a measurement.
AUTOLOCK and user prompts help eliminate most errors in
determining pH and mV values, resulting in precise, repeatable and
error-free measurements. The 6177M/6177EU can also be used in
non-AUTOLOCK mode.
The unit is also equipped with a non-volatile memory allowing the
user to store 750 different sets of readings. This unit will assign a
site number for each set of reading so the user can review the data
easily.
The model 6177M/6177EU is available with pH, ORP and ATC
(Automatic Temperature Compensation) probes. Other features
include up to 5 point calibration for pH and 1 point calibration for
ORP, electrode offset recognition, electrode slope recognition,
electrode efficiency display, built-in buffer coefficients, automatic or
manual temperature compensation and 50/60 Hz AC noise
rejection. This meter is user-friendly for laboratory application.
[ IMPORTANT NOTE:
The 6177M has a 10 KΩ thermistor and the
6177EU has a 30 KΩ thermistor. There temperature sensor is not
interchangeable
