Safety Information
Before operating your meter, be sure to read the installation
and operation instructions.
The most common safety issues when working with the
meter include:
• Using any power source other than the original power
adaptor may produce some safety problems.
• Be sure that the meter has a good ground connection.
• Prevent exposure to corrosive gases.
• Keep the sockets of the meter clean and dry. Avoid
contact with acidic, alkaline, and salt solutions.
• The meter can be used continuously for a long time. After
a measurement, soak all electrodes in distilled water.
• To protect high resistance components from damage,
install the short circuit plug (G4383- 40000) onto the pH
electrode socket when the meter is not connected to a pH
electrode. (The short- circuit plug ships installed in the pH
socket of the meter, see Figure 6.) Keep the short- circuit
plug clean and dry. The plug can be damaged by
humidity. A damaged short- circuit plug can damage the
meter.
