Bluelab Truncheon Meter - Manual (Page 2)

1.0 To operate
Using the Bluelab Truncheon ® Nutrient Meter to measure nutrient conductivity
involves placing the probe sensor head in the solution, followed by measuring
and reading conductivity values on the stem scale indicator light. Figure 1
shows the Bluelab Truncheon
® Nutrient Meter (Truncheon Meter).

Measure conductivity
Place probe into nutrient solution and take
reading as indicated by the fl ashing lights.
Note: If the lights are dancing between two
values, the reading is between those two values
eg. lights dancing between ‘6’ and ‘8’ indicates a
reading of ‘7’.
Note: For very cold or very hot temperatures it will
take 1-2 minutes for the probe to reach solution
temperature. To help decrease time taken to
reach the solution temperature, place the probe
in an area where there is a strong movement of
solution, or stir solution with the probe.
Obtain another reading
To take another reading, simply place back in
solution.
Clean probe
We recommend the probe be cleaned once
every two weeks according to the Cleaning
and Maintenance instructions. This can vary
depending on frequency of use.
