In order to take more accurate pH measurements, make sure that the instrument is calibrated (see page 9 for details). The glass bulb and the junction on the pH electrode should always be moist, never allow it to dry out. If several measurements are taken successively in different samples, rinse the electrode thoroughly with deionized or tap water and a small amount of the sample to be measured. The pH reading is directly affected by temperature. In order for the meter to measure the pH accurately, temperature must be compensated for. If the sample temperature is different from the temperature at which the pH electrode was kept, allow a few minutes for thermal equilibrium. To use the meter's Automatic Temperature Compensation feature, submerge the temperature probe into the sample as close to the electrode as possible and wait for a few minutes. If manual temperature compensation is desired the temperature probe must be disconnected from the instrument. The display will show the default temperature of 25 °C, or the last temperature set with the "°C" (or "°F") indicator blinking. The temperature can now be adjusted with the UP and DOWN arrow keys. ORP MEASUREMENTS (HI 9125 only) To perform ORP measurements, connect an optional ORP electrode (see "Accessories" section) to the meter and turn it ON. If necessary, enter the "mV" mode by pressing RANGE until the display changes to mV. 7 Submerge the ORP electrode 4cm (1½") into the sample to be tested and wait a few minutes for the reading to stabilize. Measurements within the ±699.9 mV range are displayed with 0.1 mV resolution, while outside this range the resolution automatically switches to 1 mV. For accurate ORP measurements, the surface of the electrode must be clean and smooth. Pretreatment solutions are available to condition the electrode and improve its response time (see "Accessories" section). Notes: • When the reading is out of range, the display will flash the closest full-scale value. • If using pH electrode while in mV mode, the meter will measure the mV generated by the pH electrode. MEM & MR FUNCTIONS The instrument allows the user to store the current measurement (pH and temperature, or mV and temperature) into internal memory by pressing the MEM key. The MEMORIZE tag lights up on display. Stored value can be recalled by pressing MR: the display will show the value as long as the button is pressed, and the MEMORIZE tag. 8 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE SYMPTOMS PROBLEM SOLUTION Slow reponse/excessive drift. D irty pH electrode. The electrode needs to be cleaned. Follow the cleaning procedure on page 20. Reading fluctuates up and down (noise). Clogged/dirty junction.

Recharge batteries; Press ON/OFF. “E r0, E r1, E r2” message at start up. E E PROM error. Contact your dealer or any Hanna Service Center. “Clr” message at start up. Loaded default pH calibration values. Perform pH calibration. 21 For refillable electrodes, if the refill solution (electrolyte) is more than 2½ cm (1") below the fill hole, add the appropriate Electrolyte Solution. p H CALIBRATION MEASUREMENT Rinse the electrode tip with distilled water, immerse it 4 cm (1½") in the sample and stir gently for a few seconds. For a faster response and to avoid cross contamination of the samples, rinse the electrode tip with the solution to be tested, before taking any measurements. It is recommended to calibrate the instrument frequently, especially if high accuracy is required. The pH range should be recalibrated: • Whenever the pH electrode or temperature probe is replaced. • At least once a week. • After testing aggressive chemicals. • When extreme accuracy is required. STORAGE PROCEDURE To minimize clogging and ensure a quick response time, the glass bulb and the junction should always be kept moist. When not in use, store it with a few drops of HI 70300 storage solution in the protective cap. NEVER STORE THE ELECTRODE IN DISTILLED OR DEIONIZED WATER. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE Inspect electrode and cable. The cable must be intact. No cracks should be seen on the electrode stem or bulb. If any scratches or cracks are present, replace the electrode. Rinse off any salt deposits with water. Connectors must be perfectly clean and dry. For refillable electrodes: Refill the electrode with fresh electrolyte (see the electrode’s specifications to select the correct refilling solution). Allow the electrode to stand upright for 1 hour. Follow the Storage Procedure above. CLEANING PROCEDURE Soak in Hanna HI 7061 General Cleaning • General Solution for approximately ½ hour. • Protein Soak in Hanna HI 7073 Protein Cleaning Solution for 15 min. • Inorganic Soak in Hanna HI 7074 Inorganic CleaningSolution for 15 min. • Oil/grease Rinse with Hanna HI 7077 Oil & Fat Cleaning Solution for 1 min. IMPORTANT: After performing any of the cleaning procedures, rinse the electrode thoroughly with distilled water and soak it in HI 70300 Storage Solution for at least 1 hour before taking measurements. 20 PREPARATION Pour a small quantity of buffer solution into clean beakers. For accurate calibration use two beakers for each buffer solution, the first one for rinsing the electrode and the second one for calibration. PROCEDURE In order to perform pH calibration: • Make sure that the meter is in the pH mode (HI 9125 only). • Remove the protective cap and rinse the electrode with some of the buffer solution to be used for the first calibration point. There is a choice of 5 memorized buffers: 4.01, 6.86, 7.01, 9.18 and 10.01 pH. TWO-POINT CALIBRATION • Press the CAL key. The "CAL" and " " indicators will be displayed. The secondary LCD will display buffer "7.01". If a different calibration buffer is desired (e.g. “6.86”), use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to change the displayed value. or • Submerge the electrode approx. 4 cm (1½") into the solution, place the temperature probe as close as possible to the electrode and stir gently. 9 • The LCD will flash the "WAIT NOT READY" message. ELECTRODE CONDITIONING & MAINTENANCE • Once the reading is stable, if it is not close to the selected buffer, "WRONG " and "WRONG " will blink alternatively; if it is close to the selected buffer the display will change to "READY" and blinking "CFM". • Press the CFM key to confirm the calibration: the meter stores the offset calibration point. The calibrated reading is then displayed on the primary LCD while the secondary LCD will show the second buffer to be used for calibration (pH 4.01). Not present in gel electrodes. • After the first calibration point is confirmed, immerse the electrode into the second buffer (pH 4.01, 10.01 or 9.18) and stir gently. Choose pH 4.01 for acidic samples, and pH 10.01 or 9.18 for alkaline solutions. • Submerge the electrode approx. 4 cm (1½") into the solution, place the temperature probe as close as possible to the electrode and stir gently. • Select the second buffer value on the secondary display by pressing the UP and DOWN arrow keys. 10 PREPARATION PROCEDURE Remove the electrode protective cap. DO NOT BE ALARMED IF ANY SALT DEPOSITS ARE PRESENT. This is normal with electrodes and they will disappear when rinsed with water. During transport tiny bubbles of air may have formed inside the glass bulb. The electrode cannot function properly under these conditions. These bubbles can be removed by "shaking down" the electrode as you would do with a glass thermometer. If the bulb and/or junction are dry, soak the electrode in HI 70300 Storage Solution for at least one hour. 19 TEMPERATURE CORRELATION FOR p H SENSITIVE GLASS The resistance of glass electrodes partially depends on the temperature. The lower the temperature, the higher the resistance. It takes more time for the reading to stabilize if the resistance is higher. In addition, the response time will suffer to a greater degree at temperatures below 25 °C. Since the resistance of the pH electrode is in the range of 50 – 200 Mohms, the current across the membrane is in the pico Ampere range. Large currents can disturb the calibration of the electrode for many hours. For these reasons high humidity environments, short circuits and static discharges can be detrimental to a stable pH reading. The pH electrode’s life also depends on the temperature. If constantly used at high temperatures, the electrode life is drastically reduced. Typical Electrode Life Ambient Temperature 1 – 3 years 90 °C Less than 4 months 120 °C Less than 1 month Alkaline Error High concentrations of sodium ions interfere with readings in alkaline solutions. The pH at which the interference starts to be significant depends upon the composition of the glass. This interference is called alkaline error and causes the pH to be underestimated. Hanna’s glass formulations have the indicated characteristics. Sodium Ion Correction for Glass at 20-25 °C Concentration pH Error 13.00 0.10 0.1 Mol L-1 Na+ 13.50 0.14 14.00 0.20 12.50 0.10 13.00 0.18 1.0 Mol L-1 Na+ 13.50 0.29 14.00 0.40 18 • If the reading is not close to the selected buffer, "WRONG " and "WRONG " will blink alternatively; • If the reading is close to the selected buffer and the reading is stable, the “READY” symbol is displayed and the “CFM” symbol starts blinking on the LCD, asking for confirmation. • Press the CFM key: the value is stored in memory and the meter returns to normal mode. Note: The meter automatically skips the buffer used for the first calibration point to avoid erroneous procedure. A difference of at least 1.5 pH unit is required between the two buffers used for the offset and slope calibration: once calibrated at either pH 7.01 or 6.86, the instrument automatically ignores the other value for the second point (same for pH 10.01 and 9.18). Note: During calibration, the secondary LCD shows the selected buffer value. For the HI 9125 model, it is possible to display the buffer temperature during calibration by pressing RANGE. Note: To clear a previous calibration and return to the default values, press CFM, then CAL after entering the calibration mode and before the first buffer is accepted. The LCD will show “CLr CAL” for one second, and then will return to normal mode. ONE-POINT CALIBRATION For optimum accuracy it is always recommended to perform a two-point calibration, but for a faster operation a single-point calibration can be used. pH 7.01 or pH 6.86 (NIST) are normally used for this purpose, even though the meters can be calibrated with any of the 5 memorized calibration values. After calibrating the first point (see above), press the CAL key to end the calibration procedure. 11 p H BUFFER TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE The temperature has an effect on pH. The calibration buffer solutions are affected by temperature changes to a lesser degree than normal solutions. During calibration the instrument will automatically calibrate to the pH value corresponding to the measured or set temperature.

For optimum accuracy, it is recommended to recalibrate the meter for mV readings at least once a year. Contact your Dealer or the nearest Hanna Customer Service Center for more information. It is recommended to recharge the rechargeable batteries as soon as the display will flash the battery symbol. The meter is also provided with the BEPS (Battery Error Prevention System) feature which automatically turns the instrument off when the battery level is too low to ensure reliable readings. At start-up the display will show “0 batt” for few seconds, then the meter automatically turns off. TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION HI 9124 & HI 9125 have been precalibrated for temperature at the factory. For optimum accuracy, it is recommended to recalibrate the meter for temperature at least once a year. Contact your Dealer or the nearest Hanna Customer Service Center for more information. BATTERIES RECHARCHING/REPLACEMENT The instrument is supplied with rechargeable batteries inside. First time you start working with the instrument or when the rechargeable batteries are changed with new ones, perform the following procedure: • Work with the instrument until the rechargeable batteries are fully discharged • Perform a complete charging cycle (about 16 hours). Repeat this procedure 3 times. At start-up the battery percentage is displayed. If the batteries become weak, the display will flash the battery symbol to advise the user that there are approximately 25 hours of working time left. 14 To recharge the rechargeable batteries, follow the next steps: • Connect the 12VDC power adapter to the main line and to the main line of the battery recharger. The recharger front LED will turn ON. • Place the instrument in the battery recharger case. • The complete charging process takes about 16 hours. • The Changing LED is ON until the changing process is completed. Notes: • As the charging process is performed at low current, the instrument can be left on the recharger more than 16 hours, without damaging the rechargeable batteries. • It is recommended to turn off the instrument while recharging the batteries. The measurements can be affected by the recharging process. • Batteries recharging must only take place in a non hazardous area, using the HI 710044 inductive recharger. 15
