4.2.2

Measuring the pH value

AutoRead AR

(drift control)

The AutoRead function (drift control) checks the stability of the mea-
surement signal. The stability has a considerable impact on the repro-
ducibility of the measured values.

For identical measurement conditions, the following criteria apply:

1

Perform the preparatory activities according to section 4.2.1.

2

Immerse the pH electrode in the test sample.

3

Press the <

> <> keys until pH appears in the status display.

The pH value appears on the display.

4

When measuring without a connected temperature sensor:
Options:
z Determine the current temperature using a thermometer

and, while keeping the <RUN/ENTER> key depressed, en-
ter this temperature value with <

> <>.

z TP display indicator not displayed, socket for the second

probe is free:
Connect the second probe (Oxi) and immerse it in the same
test sample. TP flashes, the temperature is automatically
measured using the second probe.
