Adjust the OFFSET trimmer if the LCD does not show the zero
reading.
• Pour enough conductivity solution into a
beaker to achieve at least 8 cm (3¼") of
depth.
Immerse the probe into the beaker with the
conductivity solution. The holes on the sleeve
must be completely submerged in the solution.
Tap the probe repeatedly on the bottom of the beaker and stir it
to ensure that no air bubbles are trapped inside the sleeve.
• If the temperature of the probe is close to that of the solution the
display will stabilize quickly and provide you with a temperature
compensated conductivity measurement.
However, allow a few minutes if there is a temperature difference
of 5°C (9°F) or more for the ATC circuitry to compensate completely.
• When the reading stabilizes, turn the SLOPE trimmer on the front
of the HI943500 until the LCD reading is the same of the
calibration solution at 25°C (77°F), i.e.:
80.0 mS using HI7034 with HI943500A
12.88 mS using HI7030 with HI943500B
1413 µS using HI7031 with HI943500C
84.0 µS using HI7033 with HI943500D
