PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION
Remove the instrument from the packing material and examine
it carefully to make sure that no damage has occurred during
shipment. If noticeable damage is evident, notify your dealer.
Each instrument is supplied with:
• HI 1291D pH/Temperature probe with DIN connector and
0.5 m (1.6’) cable
• pH 4.01 & 7.01 buffer solutions (20 mL each)
• Plastic beaker
• Electrode holder
• Rubber O-ring
• Magnetic stir bar (HI 208 only)
• 12Vdc power adapter
• Instruction manual
Note: Save all packing material until you are sure that the
instrument functions correctly. All defective items must
be returned in the original packing together with the
supplied accessories.
HI 207 and HI 208
are microprocessor-based pH and temperature
bench meters.
Main features include: extended pH and temperature ranges;
built-in magnetic stirrer (HI 208 only); large dual-line display;
automatic pH calibration at one or two points, with two
memorized buffer sets (standard or NIST); selectable temperature
unit (°C or °F).
The pH electrode has a built-in temperature sensor for simultaneous
pH and temperature readings, and also contains a mini
amplifier to render measurements impervious to noise and
electrical interferences.
