Troubleshooting
7.3 Causes of Abnormal Measured Values
If error messages do not occur, but measured values seem incorrect, check the
following:
• Are proper standard solutions used?
• Is the sensor connected to the meter securely?
• Are air bubbles trapped in the electrode tip?
• Has the electrode dried out?
• Is the electrode dirty?
• Is the sensor damaged or dirty?
• Is the electrode immersed in the sample solution properly?
• Has the level of the electrode filling solution dropped (for KCl refillable type
sensors)?
• Is the electrode filling solution contaminated with the sample solution (for KCl
refillable type sensors)?
• Has the actual temperature of the solution been set properly (for a needle type or
test tube size pH sensor)?
7.4 Other Conditions
• An alarm sounds
The alarm is set to sound at the preset alarm time. Refer to Section 5.3 (7), “Alarm
time setting (ALM) panel.”
• Beeps
The beep sound to acknowledge a key press can be enabled/disabled. Refer to
Section 5.3 (9), “Set beep on/off (bZ.o) panel.”
•
appears
This indicates that the electrode has deteriorated. The electrode may be used
continuously even after this mark appears. If a
or
message
appears in addition to this mark, however, replace the sensor with a new one
immediately.
This mark will also appear when deteriorated or poor quality standard solutions are
used for calibration, when dirt or deposits are present on the electrode, or when
calibration is performed improperly. When it appears, perform acid cleaning (see
Section 6.2) and recalibrate using fresh standard solutions.
If the mark remains even though there is no problem with the sensor, the calibration
parameters may be incorrect. Initialize the calibration parameters to the slope of 1.000
and asymmetry potential of 0.0 mV (see Section 5.3(10)). Then calibrate the PH71.
•
appears
This does not indicate any failure if a sensor without a built-in temperature element (a
needle type or test tube size pH sensor) is used. If this mark appears, manually set
the temperature of a solution (see Section 5.3 (2)).
