B. Battery Replacement

Dry instrument thOrOUghly. Remove the four (4) bottom screws.

Open instrument carefully. Carefully detach battery from circuit board.

Replace with 9 Volt alkaline battery. Replace bottom, ensuring the

sealing gasket is installed in the groove of the top half of case. Re-install

screws, tighten evenly and securely.

nOte: Because of nonvolatile EEPROM circuitry, all data stored in

memory and all calibration settings are protected even during power

loss or battery replacement. However, loss of time and date may occur if

battery is removed for longer than 3 minutes (180 seconds).

C. pH/ORP Sensor Replacement

Order model RPR. When ordering, be sure to include the model and serial

number of your instrument to ensure receipt of the proper type. Complete

installation instructions are provided with each replacement sensor.

D. Cleaning Sensors

1. Conductivity/TDS/Resistivity

The conductivity cell cup should be kept as clean as possible. Flushing

with clean water following use will prevent buildup on electrodes.

However, if very dirty samples — particularly scaling types — are

allowed to dry in the cell cup, a film will form. This film reduces accuracy.

When there are visible films of oil, dirt, or scale in the cell cup or on the

electrodes, use isopropyl alcohol or a foaming non-abrasive household

cleaner. Rinse out the cleaner and your Ultrameter III is again ready for

accurate measurements.

2. pH/ORP

The unique pH/ORP sensor in your Ultrameter III is a nonrefillable

combination type that features a porous liquid junction. It should not be

allowed to dry out. However, if this occurs, the sensor may sometimes

be rejuvenated by first cleaning the sensor well with Isopropyl alcohol

or a liquid spray cleaner such as Windex™ or Fantastic™ and rinsing

well. Do not scrub or wipe the pH/ORP sensor.
