Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ 1. INTRODUCTION Thank you for selecting our pH 5+, pH 6+, or Ion 6+ portable meter. This microprocessor-based handheld instrument is both economical and easy to use. o The pH 5+ measures pH and temperature ( C). o The pH 6+ and Ion 6+ measure pH, mV (ORP) and temperature ( C). The Ion 6+ can also measure direct ion concentration of various ions (mono and divalent) using an ion selective electrodes (ISE). The mV mode is also useful for ISEs.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ 2. GETTING STARTED Description of Keypad Functions The pH 5+ and pH 6+ have four keys, while the Ion 6+ has six keys on its splash-proof keypad as shown here: pH 5+ / pH 6+ Ion 6+ Powers the meter on and off. Upon power on, the meter automatically begins in the measurement mode that was last used. MODE: Selects measurement modes (pH, mV, Ion (Ion6+ only), & Temperature).
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ CALIBRATE: Press to begin calibration of the selected mode. Press again during calibration to abort calibration and return to measurement mode without confirming any values. During setup mode, function is similar to “escape” or “go back”, returning to the previous screen. With meter off, press and hold () while powering on. to select the reset menu Increase value or scroll up in Setup or Cal modes. Decrease value or scroll down in Setup or Cal modes.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ Inserting & Removing the Rubber Armor / Stand Before removing the meter from the rubber armor, disconnect any electrodes. Push out from the bottom edges of meter until it is completely out of boot. To insert meter into the armor, slide in from the top of meter before pushing the bottom edges of meter into position. Tilt the stand at the back of meter for table top usage as desired.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ Connecting Electrodes and Temperature Sensor Align the BNC connector slots with the posts of meter’s socket and rotate connector clockwise until it locks—do not force. To remove, rotate the connector in counterclockwise direction until it unlocks, and slide the connector off the socket. Insert the mini phono jack of temperature sensor into the socket on the meter. Unplug the phono jack to perform measurements without temperature compensation (25° C default).
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ 3. CALIBRATION 3.1 pH Calibration The 5+ and 6+ meter is capable of calibrating up to 5 pH values using the USA or NIST buffer groups, or 2 pH values using the Low Ionic buffer group. All new calibration values will automatically override existing calibration data. The non-volatile memory will retain calibration values upon power shut-off, and battery removal. For best results, periodic calibration with known accurate standards is recommended.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ pH Calibration Procedure 1. Turn on the meter and select pH mode by pressing if necessary. to begin pH calibration mode. “” (calibrate) will display briefly. Notice 2. Press that the pH reading and “pH” annunciator will both blink. 3. Pour pH buffer calibration standard solution into a clean, dry container and dip your pH electrode and temperature probe in the solution. Swirl gently or stir and wait for reading to stabilize (approx.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ Changing the pH Buffer Group 1. Power off the meter while in pH mode. Press and hold successful, “” will blink on the display. Release both keys. 2. Press to enter the buffer group selection mode. 3. Press to toggle between the available pH buffer groups: then press . If 4. Press to confirm the pH buffer group. Note: If is selected, measurement mode will begin. If or is selected, proceed to step 5. 5.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ Resetting User Calibrated Values The meter can be completely reset to factory default values, or partially reset for calibration values only using the procedure below.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ 3.2 Ion Calibration (Ion 6+ only) Ion measurement requires an ion selective electrode (ISE)—sold separately. An ISE will measure one specific ion of interest—such as ammonia or fluoride. The available calibration values for the Ion 6+ are 0.1, 1.0, 10.0, 100.0, and 1000 ppm. Choose any 2 or 3 consecutive values to use and prepare the corresponding ion calibration solutions.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ 5. When the mV reading has stabilized, the mV annunciator will stop blinking. Press to confirm the value. “” (confirm) will display briefly. The display will show the next highest calibration standard value. Rinse the electrode with clean water. 6. Repeat steps 3 & 4 & 5 once for a 2-point calibration or twice for a 3-point calibration using additional ion calibration standard(s). to complete a 2-point calibration. When a 3-point calibration has been 7.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ 3.3 Millivolt (mV) Calibration (6+ only) Oxidization Reduction Potential (ORP or Redox) as measured by an ORP electrode in mV units is not a precise measurement, but is useful as a relative indicator. As such, mV offset adjustment is not meant to enhance accuracy, but rather to make readings comparable to a reference.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ 3.4 Temperature Calibration With Temperature Probe (Automatic Temperature Compensation) The thermistor sensor used for temperature measurement is accurate and stable, so frequent calibration isn’t required. Temperature calibration is recommended upon electrode replacement, whenever the temperature reading is suspect, or if matching against a certified thermometer is desired.
Instruction Manual pH 5+, pH 6+, Ion 6+ Without Temperature Probe (Manual Temperature Compensation) If a temperature probe is not connected, the meter compensates for pH response based on the factory default value at 25.0 °C. This default temperature can be manually adjusted using the procedure below. For nearly all applications however, Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC) is recommended for best accuracy. 1. Turn on the meter and select °C mode by pressing the temperature probe. 2.

Power on the meter. Press mV, Ion, or Temperature). key to select your desired mode of operation (pH, 3. Dip both probes gently into an aqueous test sample, swirl or stir gently and allow the reading to stabilize. Holding & Releasing a Reading To freeze or hold a displayed reading, press .
