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.
