3. Preparation Inserting the batteries 3.1 The battery compartment is found at the back of the instrument. To open the battery compartment, push the lid up. See figure Note the polarity of battery before inserting the batteries into position. fter replacement, place the cover back into its position and press down until it locks tight. "LO" annunciator in the LD alerts you when battery power is running low. Replace batteries with a fresh set as soon as possible. 3.3 Switching the meter on Press the ON/OFF key to power up your meter. ll the LD segments display for a few seconds as the meter goes through a self-diagnostic test. The LD then switches into ion measurement mode. If the LD then displays "Ur", the electrode and/ or temperature sensor may be faulty, or there may be an open circuit. See figure See page 17 for more troubleshooting information. 3.2 onnecting your Electrode To connect the corn meter to your electrode, align the post of the meter's connector with the slots on the electrode's connector, push together and twist the electrode connector 1/2 turn until it clicks into place. To remove, simply rotate the connector counter-clockwise until it unlocks, and slide the connector off the socket.

Unplug the phono jack when not in use. electrode and temperature probe connections at top of corn meter 6 7

4. alibration Ion calibration 4.1 This instrument is capable of up to three-point ion calibration. alibration values are 0.1, 1.0, 10.0 or 100.0. You must calibrate to at least two points. ll calibration points should be one decade apart. For example you may perform three point calibration to 0.1, 1.0 and 10.0, or two point calibration to 10.0 and 100.0. Do NOT perform twopoint calibration to 1.0 and 100.0 (meter will display Er4 ). For best accuracy, calibrate your meter to points with similar concentrations to the solutions you want to test. Before you begin calibration, you must know whether the ion you are measuring is mono or divalent. If you are uncertain, consult your ISE electrode manual, or your OKTON distributor. 1. Prepare at least two calibration standards in accordance with the electrode instructions or your approved methods. For best results, make sure standards and samples are at the same temperature 2. Turn meter on. The ION 5 meter will automatically enter the ion measurement mode. See figure 3. Dip electrode into the first calibration standard. Make sure to start with the calibration standard that has the lowest concentration and move up to the standards that have higher concentrations. B 4. Press L key to enter calibration mode. The display will show 1. See figure B If you are measuring monovalent ions, press ENTER to begin calibration. If you are measuring divalent ions, press MODE. The display will show 2. Press ENTER to begin calibration See figure 5. The first calibration point to appear is 0.1 ppm. If you do NOT wish to calibrate to this point, press (up arrow) to skip, and continue on to the next calibration point. 6. If you DO wish to calibrate to this point, press the ENTER key. The meter will display the mv output of your electrode in the standard solution. llow the instrument to stabilize. Stabilization may take a few minutes depending on electrode and standard concentration. Electrode response in low concentrations is much slower than response in high concentrations. 7. Press ENTER to confirm your calibration. The meter will move on to the next standard (1.0 ppm). 8. Follow steps 5-7 for each of the next calibration points. Make sure to rinse off the electrode with deionized water before placing it in the next calibration standard. 9. fter you have entered three calibration D points, the meter will display the average electrode slope in mv. See figure D You may compare this reading with the mv expected slope value for your electrode from your electrode manual to verify electrode operation. E If you are only calibrating to two points, you will need to press the (up arrow) key until the slope is displayed. If you want to leave the calibration mode for any reason, press the L key to exit the calibration mode. The meter will revert back to the earlier calibration curve. You must calibrate to at least two points in order for calibration to take effect. If you only confirm the one calibration point, the meter will display Er2 when you exit calibration mode, and the meter will revert back to the earlier calibration curve. See figure E 8 9

4.2 ph buffer set selection (ION 6 meter only) The ION 6 meter is capable of up to three-point ph calibration to ensure accuracy across the entire range of the meter. The ION 6 meter can be set to recognize either of two buffer sets: US or NIST buffers. US US : 4.01; 7.00 and 10.01 NIST nst : 4.01, 6.86, and 9.18 To choose your buffer set: 1. Turn meter OFF. Meter must be OFF in order to access buffer selection. 2. While holding down the MODE key, press the ON/OFF key momentarily. ontinue to hold the MODE key until the display flashes buf. B See figure 3. Press the ENTER key to enter buffer set selection mode. The display will flash US See figure B 4. Press the MODE key to toggle between the available buffer sets. The display will flash US or nst as you toggle between the sets 5. Press ENTER key to confirm the buffer set you wish to use. Proceed with calibration in section 4.3 4.3 ph calibration (ION 6 meter only) We recommend you perform at least a 2-point calibration at room temperature using standard buffers that bracket (one above and one below) the expected sample range. You can also perform a 1-point calibration, but make sure that the buffer value is close to the sample value you are measuring. ll new calibrations will over-ride existing data. NOTE: Do not reuse buffer solutions after calibration. ontaminants in the solution can affect the calibration, and the accuracy of the measurements. Before use: remove the electrode soaker bottle. If the electrode has been stored dry, condition the glass bulb by soaking it in tap water for 30 minutes. This hydrates the glass bulb if the electrode is too dry, or has not been used for a long period of time. 1. Turn meter on. Meter will automatically enter ion measurement mode. Press the MODE key until display shows ph in the upper right corner. 2. Rinse electrode thoroughly with deionized water or a rinse solution. DO NOT wipe the electrode; this causes a build-up of electrostatic charge on the glass surface. 3. Dip both the electrode and temperature sensor into ph 7.00 (or 6.86 in NIST set) buffer solution. The glass bulb must be completely immersed into the sample. Stir gently, and wait for reading to stabilize (approximately 40 seconds). 4. Press L key to enter the calibration mode. The display will momentarily flash to indicate libration. See figure The display will then show the current noncalibrated reading, blinking while in calibration mode. See figure B 5. llow the reading to stabilize. The meter automatically recognizes 7.00, 4.01 or 10.00 buffers (or 4.01; 6.86 and 9.18 in NIST set). 6. Press ENTER key once to confirm calibration. B The LD displays O to indicate the calibration point has been confirmed. The meter exits calibration mode and returns ph to measurement mode. 7. Repeat with ph buffers 4.01 and/or 10.00 ( or 6.86/9.18) for best accuracy. 10 11

NOTE: This meter has automatic buffer recognition which identifies the correct ph buffer values during calibration. If buffers other than 4.01, 7.00 or 10.00 are used, or the electrode has worn out, the LD will flash "Er1". See figure Press L key to clear. 4.4 Temperature calibration (ION 6 meter only) The temperature sensor included with your meter is factory calibrated. Over time, the temperature calibration may drift and require recalibration. If you replace the probe you should calibrate temperature prior to ph calibration. 1. onnect your temperature probe to the meter. 2. Press the MODE key until " " appears in the LD. 3. ompare displayed value to a NIST certified thermometer or other thermometer known to be accurate. For best accuracy, place probe and thermometer in a constant temperature bath. 4. Press the L key. The LD shows "" and the reading flashes. B See figures B 5. Use the and keys to adjust the temperature shown to match the accurate temperature (maximum adjustment is ±5 from factory default). 6. Press ENTER key to confirm calibration. The LD displays "O", and the meter then reverts to measurement mode. 4.5 Resetting calibrated values to default values When you calibrate the ph mode of the Ion 6 meter, old ph calibration data is written over on a point by point basis. If when recalibrating you do not calibrate at all three points, the old data may result in errors. You can reset the meter to factory calibration values using the following procedure. 1. TURN METER OFF. Meter must be OFF in order to reset calibration values. 2. Press and hold the L key while switching on the meter using the ON key. Hold the L key until the display shows "rst". 3. Press ENTER key to confirm. The meter automatically clears all stored ph calibration values and reverts to Ion measurement mode. Press MODE key instead of ENTER if you do not wish to reset. Meter will maintain current calibration values and return to the Ion measurement mode. 12 13

5. Measurement Measuring Ion oncentration 5.1 1. Switch on meter. The ION 5 and ION 6 meters will automatically enter the ion measurement mode. No annunciator will appear. See figure 2. Prepare samples as necessary (i.e., add Ionic Strength adjuster). Sample preparation varies depending on ion type see your electrode manual for details on the specific electrode that you are using. 3. Dip electrode into the sample. The sensor or glass bulb of the electrode must be completely immersed into the sample. For best results, use a magnetic stirrer to ensure a homogenous sample. 4. Wait for reading to stabilize. Note reading. ION TIP: oncentration readings are not temperature compensated. Try to avoid temperature fluctuations in your standards and samples. 5.3 Measuring ph and temperature (ION 6 meter only) The corn ION 6 meter also takes readings in ph and temperature. 1. Rinse both electrode and temperature sensor with distilled water. 2. Turn meter on. ION 6 meter automatically enters ion measurement mode. Press MODE key until meter enters ph measurement mode. ph annunciator will appear in the upper right B corner of the LD. See figure 3. Dip electrode and temperature sensor approximately 1" to 2" into sample. Stir gently and wait for display to stabilize. Note ph reading. 4. Press MODE key to see your temperature reading. annunciator will appear in the lower right corner of the LD. See figure B ph 5.2 Measuring mv The mv mode is provided to allow you to check performance and calibration of your ion selective electrode. To verify electrode operation, check mv reading in calibration standards one decade apart in value (i.e.: 1 ppm; 10 ppm). Use the MODE key to toggle between ion and mv measurement (ION 6 meter MODE key switches between ph, temperature, ion and mv). onsult your electrode manual for expected mv (slope) value. If your actual mv readings are not within expected values as stated in your electrode manual, you may need to recondition or replace your electrode. 5.4 Measuring ph with manual temperature compensation When no temperature probe is connected, the meter will compensate based on a manually entered temperature value. The factory default setting is 25 (no temperature compensation). You can compensate for temperature manually by entering the temperature of your solution using the procedure below. 1.

6. Electrode care and maintenance 6.1 Ion selective electrode care For Ion Selective Electrode care, consult the instruction manual included with your electrode. 6.2 Storage ph electrode care (ION 6 meter only) For best results, keep the ph bulb wet. Store the ph bulb in the electrode soaker bottle filled with electrode storage solution. Or you can store the electrode in a ph 4 buffer with 1/100 part saturated Kl. Other ph buffers are also suitable for storage. NEVER use deionized water for storage. fter measuring 1. Rinse the ph electrode and reference junction in deionized water. 2. Store the electrode as recommended in "Storage" or as recommended by the manufacturer. ph electrode cleaning Because your ph electrode is susceptible to dirt and contamination, clean it every one to three months depending on extent and condition of use. lean the electrode in a mild detergent solution. Wipe the probe with a soft tissue paper. void touching the glass membrane with your fingers. Wash thoroughly in tap water and then in distilled water. Recalibrate your meter after cleaning the electrode. Special leaning Tips Salt deposit: dissolve the deposit by immersing the ph electrode in tap water for ten to fifteen minutes. Then thoroughly rinse with distilled water. Oil/grease film: wash electrode ph bulb gently in detergent solution. Rinse electrode tip with distilled water. logged reference junction: heat a diluted Kl solution for 60-80. Place the sensing part of the ph electrode into the heated solution for about 10 minutes. llow the electrode to cool in some unheated Kl solution. Protein deposits: prepare a 1% pepsin solution in 0.1M of Hl. Set the ph electrode in the solution for five to ten minutes. Rinse the electrode with distilled water. 7.
