All subsequent measurements will be compensated to 25°C (77°F).
If you prefer to standardize the temperature compensation to
20°C (68°F) rather than 25°C (77°F), leave the °C knob at 18°C
(if the temperature of your solution is 18°C), adjust the trimmer
to read "11.67 mS" (see the conductivity vs. temperature chart at
page 18). All subsequent measurements will be compensated to
20°C.
The calibration is now complete and the instrument is ready for
use.
The instrument should be re-calibrated at least once a month, or
when the probe or battery is changed.
Note: For more accurate results, it is advisable to use a calibration
solution close to the range to be measured. See the accessories
section on page 23 for a wide selection of conductivity solu-
tions.
PROCEDURE FOR HI 8633
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 buffer solution
from the ChecktempC (e.g. 18°C).
Switch the instrument on by pressing ON/OFF.
Press COND/TEMP to display the temperature.
Adjust the TEMPERATURE knob to display 18°C.
