Thank you for selecting the feature-packed P
OOL
P
RO
™, one of the
Myron L Company’s latest in an increasing line of instruments utilizing
advanced microprocessor-based circuitry and SMT manufacturing
processes. This circuitry makes the instrument extremely accurate,
reliable and very easy to use.
The P
OOL
P
RO
™ PS9TK has been designed to include titration
measurements for Alkalinity, Hardness and LSI and an LSI Calculator for
water balance analysis. The P
OOL
P
RO
also features Myron L Company's
exclusive Free Chlorine Equivalent (FC E ) function for making ORP-
based free chlorine measurements, as well as optional Bluetooth®
wireless data transfer. Other features include a clock with time and date,
memory of up to 100 locations with time and date stamp, the ability of
the user to adjust the timeout “Auto OFF”, and enhanced performance.
See Features and Specifications on pages 2-3.
The most exciting feature is data logging with the ability to wirelessly
download the memory or stored test data with its corresponding time,
date and unit name. This feature allows the user to create spreadsheets
and graphs with ease, and quickly and accurately manipulate data more
effectively. The optional bluDock™ and accompanying U2CI software
is compatible with most computers using either Microsoft Windows XP,
Vista™ or 7™ or Macintosh OSX™. The data may be imported into a
variety of spreadsheet formats like Microsoft Excel CSV™.
Please Note: Although the Myron L Company has performed extensive
testing, we cannot guarantee compatibility of all applications and formats.
We suggest testing your application and format for compatibility before
relying on it.
For your convenience, a brief set of instructions is provided on the
bottom side of your P
OOL
P
RO
.
Special note ... Conductivity, MIN/SALT, and TDS require mathematical
correction to 25°C values (ref. Temperature Compensation, pg. 58). On
the left of the P
OOL
P
RO
’s liquid crystal display is shown an indicator of
the salt solution characteristic used to model temperature compensation
of conductivity and its TDS conversion. The indicator may be KCl, NaCl,
or 442™. Selection affects the temperature correction of conductivity and
the calculation of TDS from compensated conductivity (ref. Conductivity
Conversion to Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), pg. 57). The selection can
affect the reported conductivity of hot or cold solutions and will change
the reported TDS of a solution. Using KCl for conductivity, NaCl for MIN/
SALT, and 442™ (Natural Water characteristic) for TDS is consistent
with present industry practice for standardization. This is how your
instrument, as shipped from the factory, is set to operate. For use in
seawater desalination for example, both the conductivity and TDS may
easily be changed to NaCl.
