Accessories needed:
Use any calibration solution within the meter's range. The
solution should ideally be close to the samples being mea-
sured. Use for example HI 7030 or HI 8030, 12880 µS/cm
(=12.88 mS/cm) conductivity solution for HI 8033, HI 8633,
HI 8733 and HI 933000 and HI 7032, 1382 mg/L
(=2764 µS/cm) TDS solution for HI 8734
ChecktempC or an accurate thermometer with 0.1°C resolution
(not necessary for HI 8733 and HI 933000)
a small screwdriver.
PROCEDURE FOR HI 8033
Pour sufficient quantity of a conductivity
calibration solution (e.g. HI 7030/
HI 8030) into a beaker to cover the holes
on the probe. If possible, use plastic bea-
kers to minimize any EMC interference.
Immerse the conductivity probe, making
sure that holes are completely submerged,
and the ChecktempC in the solution.
Wait for a couple of minutes for thermal
equilibrium to be reached.
Tap the probe on the bottom, then shake it while rotating to
make sure no air bubbles remain trapped in the sleeve.
Record the temperature of the HI 7030/HI 8030 calibration
solution from the ChecktempC (e.g. 18°C).
Turn the °C knob to 18°C.
Turn the rotary knob to select 19990 µS/cm
range.
Turn the k% calibration knob until the display shows the conduc-
tivity reading at 25°C (see the conductivity vs. temperature chart
on page 18). E.g. @ 25°C, 12880 µS/cm = 12.88 mS/cm.
