OPERATIONAL GUIDE POWER CONNECTION Plug the 12 VDC adapter into the power supply socket. Notes: • These instruments use non volatile memory to retain the pH, mV, temperature calibrations and all other settings, even when unplugged. • Make sure a fuse protects the mains line. ELECTRODE AND PROBE CONNECTIONS For HANNA P Type pH or ORP electrodes (with internal reference) connect the electrode’s BNC to the socket on the back of the instrument and the pin to the reference socket.
probe approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into the sample to be tested and stir gently. Allow time for the electrode to stabilize. • The pH is displayed on the primary LCD and the temperature on the secondary LCD. • The pH reading is out of range, the closest full-scale value will be displayed blinking on the primary LCD. • It is also possible to view the mV reading by pressing the RANGE key.
Pretreatment solutions are available to condition the electrode and speed up the response time. • The instrument automatically defaults to the 3 cm mV measurement mode if HANNA P type ORP (1¼") electrode is detected. • Submerse the ORP electrode tip (3 cm/1¼”) into the sample. Allow a few minutes for the reading to stabilize. • The instrument displays the mV reading on the primary LCD. • If the reading is out of range, the closest full-scale value will be displayed blinking on the primary LCD.
PROCEDURE Calibration can be performed at up to five points. For accurate measurements a three point calibration is recommended. Calibration can be performed using the seven memorized buffers: • pH 1.68, 4.01, 6.86, 7.01, 9.18, 10.01 and 12.45. FIVE-POINT CALIBRATION For most applications it is recommended that pH 7.01 or 6.86 buffers be used as the first calibration point and pH 4.01 (for acidic samples) or pH 9.18/10.01 (for alkaline samples) as the second calibration point. Note: The pH 12.
• When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer, the “CFM” tag will blink and if enabled, an audible signal will sound. • Press the CFM key to confirm the calibration. The calibrated value will be displayed on the primary LCD and the second expected buffer value on the secondary LCD. • After the first calibration point is confirmed, submerse the pH electrode and the temperature probe approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into the second buffer solution and stir gently.
• After the third calibration point is confirmed, submerse the pH electrode and the temperature probe approximately 3 cm (1¼”) into the next buffer solution and stir gently. The temperature probe should be close to the pH electrode. • If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a different buffer value. • The “ ” tag will blink on the LCD until the reading is stable. • When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer the “CFM” tag will blink. • Press CFM to confirm calibration.
Notes: • To clear calibration parameters for all uncalibrated buffers starting with current buffer, press CLR. The calibration will continue from the current point. If this procedure is performed while calibrating in the first calibration point, the instrument returns to measurement mode. • Press RANGE to toggle between pH buffer, calibration buffer number and temperature reading.
ENHANCED CALIBRATION MESSAGES The stored calibration history to used issue error and warning messages during calibration to help ensure the highest accuracy. As electrode aging is normally a slow process, substantial changes from previous calibrations are likely due to a temporary problem with the electrode or buffers. ERROR MESSAGES Error messages appear if one or all of the calibration parameters are out of accepted windows. Calibration can not continue when these errors are displayed.
Replace the electrode. BUFFER TEMPERATURE This message appears if the temperature of the buffer is outside the defined buffer temperature range. WARNING MESSAGES During calibration, the Calibration Check feature analyzes the electrode calibration history and warns the user when problems have been detected. It is possible to over ride the warning messages and confirm the calibration but it is not recommended.
ELECTRODE CONDITION & ELECTRODE RESPONSE TIME When using an appropriate HANNA P Type BNC electrode with pin, HI 2221 and HI 2223 will assess electrode condition and response time during each calibration, the calibration status is displayed for the rest of the day. POOR GOOD SLOW FAST The response gauge is a function of the stabilization time between the first and second calibration buffers.
p H BUFFER TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE The temperature has an effect on pH. The calibration buffer solutions are affected by temperature changes to a lesser degree than normal solutions. During calibration the instrument will automatically calibrate to the pH value corresponding to the measured or set temperature.

ELECTRODE CONDITIONING & MAINTENANCE PREPARATION PROCEDURE Remove the protective cap of the pH electrode. DO NOT BE ALARMED IF SALT DEPOSITS ARE PRESENT. This is normal with electrodes. They will disappear when rinsed with water. During transport, tiny bubbles of air may form inside the glass bulb affecting proper functioning of the electrode. These bubbles can be removed by “shaking down” the electrode as you would do with a glass thermometer.
For refillable electrodes: If the filling solution (electrolyte) is more than 2½ cm (1”) below the fill hole, add HI 7082 or HI 8082 3.5M KCl Electrolyte Solution for double junction or HI 7071 or HI 8071 3.5M KCl+AgCl Electrolyte Solution for single junction electrodes. For faster response, unscrew the fill hole screw during measurements. For AMPHEL ® electrodes: If the electrode does not respond to pH changes, the battery is run down and the electrode should be replaced.
CLEANING PROCEDURE • General Soak in Hanna HI 7061 or HI 8061 General Cleaning Solution for approximately ½ hour. • Protein Soak in Hanna HI 7073 or HI 8073 Protein Cleaning Solution for 15 minutes. • Inorganic Soak in Hanna HI 7074 Inorganic Cleaning Solution for 15 minutes. • Oil/grease Rinse with Hanna HI 7077 or HI 8077 Oil and Fat Cleaning Solution.

The meter does not accept the buffer solution for calibration.
TEMPERATURE CORRELATION FOR p H SENSITIVE GLASS The resistance of glass electrodes partially depends on the temperature. The lower the temperature, the higher the resistance. It takes more time for the reading to stabilize if the resistance is higher. In addition, the response time will suffer to a greater degree at temperatures below 25 ºC. Since the resistance of the pH electrode is in the range of 50 – 200 Mohm, the current across the membrane is in the pico Ampere range.
