1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introducing the 510 Bench Series
The pH 510 and Ion 510 bench meters are microprocessor-based which incorporates new ASIC (Application
Specific Integrated Circuit). It is designed with convenience in mind, and offers many advanced user-friendly
features. The meters are capable of storing and recalling up to 50 data sets in its non-volatile memory. In
addition, as a space saver, an optional swivel electrode holder can be attached at the either side of bench
meter for resting the electrodes and probes during operation.
The pH 510 meter is capable of measuring pH/ORP with Temperature; while the Ion 510 meter measures Ion
Concentration/pH/ORP with temperature. It is equipped with a large customized LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)
with simultaneous display of the measured values for easy reading. It is most ideal for routine pH/Ion
Concentration measurement in indoor applications.
1.2 Custom LCD
The 510 meter is characterized by a large custom dual LCD. The display has mode annunciators for pH, mV,
ppm and temperature readings. The secondary (lower) display shows the temperature reading simultaneously
with the primary (upper) display that shows the measured values of pH, ppm or mV. Special annunciators such
as units of measure, error message, graphical icons and modes of operation are arranged around both primary
and secondary display to give you a comprehensive yet uncluttered display.

READY
- The measured
value has stabilized.
MEAS
- The instrument is in
the measurement mode.
ERR
- An error in
operation has occured.
Buffer - Prompts user
to select buffer during
calibration, or indicates
buffer error when
flashing together with
the ERR annunciator.
ELECTRODE
- indicates
electrode error when it
appears with ERR.

activated.
If ATC is not
displayed, temperature
