II. Solution Mode Selection
1.
Press , or , to select which parameter is having its
solution type changed.
2.
Press and hold about 3 seconds or until "SEL" appears on the
display.
3.
Use the or key to select type of solution desired. The
possible solution types are KCI, NaCl or 442
™
.
4.
Press to accept new solution type, or to turn on the SALt
(salinity) mode.

I. CONDUCTIVITY, MIN /SALT OR TDS CALIBRATION
1.
Rinse cell cup 3 times with proper fresh, standard solution.
2.
Refill cell cup with standard solution.
3.
Press , or , then press , "CAL" will appear.
4.
Press or until display agrees with standard solution.
5.
Press to accept value.
NOTE
: A deviation of more than 10% from standard solution value will
produce a "FAC" on the display. Press to accept factory calibration,
or clean the cell and recalibrate.
II. pH/ CALIBRATION
1.
Rinse sensor well 3 times with 7.0 buffer solution.
2.
Refill sensor well with 7.0 buffer solution.
3.
Press , then , "CAL", "7" and "BUFFER" will appear on the
display.
4.
Press or until display agrees with buffer value.
5.
Press once to accept the value.
6.
Rinse 3 times with either ACID (Acd) (pH 1- 6) or BASE (bAS) (pH 8-
14) buffer solution.
7.
Refill and repeat steps 4 & 5.
8.
Rinse 3 times with opposite buffer solution, refill and repeat steps
4 & 5 or press to exit.
9.
When calibration is complete, rinse sensor, then refill sensor well with
Myron L Storage Solution and reinstall cap.
III. ORP/ FC
E
CALIBRATION
•
ORP electrodes rarely give false readings without problems in the
reference electrode.
•
For this reason, and because calibration solutions for ORP are highly
reactive and potentially hazardous, your PoolPro has an electronic
ORP calibration.
•
This causes the zero point on the reference electrode to be set
whenever pH 7 calibration is done.
MAINTENANCE
I. BATTERY REPLACEMENT (LOBATT)
1.
Clean and dry Instrument THOROUGHLY.
WARNING:
ONLY
open PS6FC
E
in a clean, dry environment!
2.
Remove the four (4) bottom screws.
3.
Open instrument CAREFULLY.
4.
Carefully detach battery from circuit board.
5.
Replace with 9-volt alkaline battery.
6.
Replace bottom, ensuring the sealing gasket is installed in the groove
of the top half of case.
7.
Re-install the 4 screws, tightening them evenly and securely.
II. CAUTIONS
•
Solutions in excess of 71°C/160°F should not be placed in the cell cup
area; this may cause damage.
•
The pH sensor may fracture if the PS6FC
E
temperature is allowed to
go below 0°C/32°F.
•
The cell cup should be kept as clean as possible. Flushing with clean
water following use will prevent buildup on electrodes. If very dirty
samples (particularly scaling types) are allowed to dry in the cell cup,
a film will form reducing accuracy.
•
The pH sensor in your PS6FC
E
should not be allowed to dry out.
•
Whenever the pH sensor is not in use make sure it is filled with
Myron L
®
Company Storage Solution and that the protective cap is in
place.
III. CLEANING SENSORS
A. Conductivity or TDS
•
When there are visible films of oil, dirt, or scale in the cell cup or on
the electrodes or if readings are not as expected, use isopropyl
alcohol or a foaming non-abrasive household cleaner.
•
Rinse out the cleaner, and your PS6FC
E
is again ready for accurate
calibration then measurements.
B.
If the pH sensor dries out or becomes dirty, it may be cleaned and/or
reconditioned. For instructions on preforming these operations,
download the full PS6FC
E
Operation Manual from the Myron L
®
Company website.
IV. pH Sensor Replacement
Order model RPR. Be sure to include the model and serial number of your
instrument to ensure receipt of the proper type.
NOTE
: Complete installation instructions are provided with each
replacement sensor.
