Section 1 Introduction 1.1 Instrument Description The model 3540 pH/conductivity meter is a dual channel, dual readout instrument that displays both pH and conductivity values simultaneously. The model 3540 is designed to show both readings in real time and eliminates cross channel interference, as well as the need to either switch manually or automatically between measurements. The design also enables both dual channel and independent single channel operation.
1.2 Display and Controls The model 3540 has a back lit 1/8 VGA dot matrix LCD. In normal measurement mode the left-hand side displays the conductivity value and the right hand side the pH value. Both channels have their own temperature/ATC input displayed below the measured value, making them fully independent. The display includes a number of icons and prompts used to inform and indicate to the user the instrument status and measurement conditions.
The Enter key confirms selections as they are made in the set up menus. With the measurement screen displayed it acts as the Store [STO] key and stores the current readings in the internal memory. Up to 250 pH and conductivity readings can be stored. The action taken when the memory is full can be selected in the data logging set up menu. The four Cursor keys enable easy navigation through the set up menus, as well as selection of the required screen on the tabbed menu bar.
1.5 Good Practice Guidelines – pH 1. Selection of the correct electrode for your application is the most important factor in achieving good performance and extended electrode life. The use of Application Specific electrodes is recommended for all but the simplest sample matrix and measurement conditions. Please contact Jenway if you require further help or advice on electrode suitability and application support. 2. For best results follow Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) at all times.
13. Storage conditions can have a greater impact on electrode performance and operational life than sample type. Store only as directed in the instructions supplied with the electrode. For general guidance: Refillable Electrodes After Use Rinse thoroughly with deionised water. Leave the fill port open and immerse in a beaker of 4 pH buffer solution. Ensure both glass bulb and reference junction are covered. Overnight Rinse thoroughly with deionised water.
1.6 Good Practice Guidelines – Conductivity 1. After using the conductivity probe ensure it is rinsed thoroughly, or cleaned then rinsed if used in adhering samples. Between samples and for short-term storage the probe should be stored with the measuring plates immersed in a beaker of deionised water. This should be replaced regularly to ensure no contamination or growth occurs.
11. The temperature coefficient is very dependent on the solution being measured and its concentration level. The effect of temperature change on conductivity can be very significant, and if the temperature coefficient is not know it is wise to measure all samples at the reference temperature. 12. The TDS mode displays results that have been calculated from the conductivity measurement and assumes some knowledge of the electrolyte balance of the sample.

Section 6 6.10 Calibration pH Calibration Up to three calibration points may be used during a pH calibration procedure. Autobuffers may be selected from any one of four sets of five values. These will be automatically recognised and so can be measured in any order. Their temperature corrected values will also be automatically displayed. Up to three values can be entered manually, but these must all be entered as values at a fixed temperature and calibration must be carried out at this same temperature.
The prompts in the preceding display request the first point of a three point calibration (1 / 3) indicating that the current buffer is 7.015 at 21.6oC. The following display shows how this varies if a 4pH buffer is used as the first calibration point. pH calibration screen showing 4pH as the first of three calibration points When the endpoint icon is displayed a further press of the CAL key will confirm the calibration and set the display to the temperature-corrected value for that buffer.
The display now changes to request the third buffer (3 / 3), rinse the electrode with de-ionised water and blot up any excess with clean, soft tissue, before immersing the electrode in the next buffer. While the electrode is not transferred a warning triangle will be displayed in the icon bar. Buffer 3 of 3 with an expected value of 10.039 When the endpoint icon is displayed a further press of the CAL key will confirm the calibration and set the display to the temperature-corrected value for that buffer.
6.20 Conductivity Calibration There are three methods for calibrating the conductivity channel. The simplest is by setting the cell constant (K factor) in the set up menu, or alternatively a one, two or three point calibration can be carried out against any of the four automatically recognised standard solutions. If calibration to alternative standards is required these can be entered for manual calibration. 6.

To calibrate against a known cell constant (K Factor), select the Setup tab using the right or left arrow keys, then select Conductivity Set up using the up or down arrow keys. Press Enter and select Calibration Set up using the up or down arrow keys. Press Enter and use the down arrow key to highlight the Cell Constant (K) option then press Enter.
Details and prompts are shown in the Icon bar throughout the calibration procedure. The following display shows the first point in a three point calibration (1/3), if a two or one point calibration had been selected then 1/2 or 1/1 will be displayed. The first standard has been recognised as 84µS. Prompt shows first calibrant is recognised as 84.
If a two-point calibration has been selected then the main measurement screen is returned at this point. The display now changes to request the third standard (3 / 3), rinse the probe with de-ionised water and blot up any excess with clean, soft tissue, before immersing it in the next solution Prompt shows third standard recognised as 12.
Section 7 7.1 Measurements pH and Conductivity Measurement Following successful calibration of one or both channels, measurement is simply carried out by immersing the relevant electrodes in the sample and taking the reading when a stable endpoint is reached. Remember to rinse all the probes with deionised water between samples and blot off any excess with clean, soft tissue before immersing in the next sample.
7.20 mV Measurement The mV measurement mode can be used for Redox (ORP) measurement as well as probe diagnostics. The mV mode can be accessed by pressing the up or down arrow key when the pH tab is highlighted in the main measurement screen. In many instances calculation and comparison are made easier by calibrating out any probe off-set, this can be done using the Relative mV (Rel mV) function. This function can pull in to zero + or – 1999.9 mV which is half the full-scale range.

Maintenance & Troubleshooting 8.1 General The Model 3540 is designed to give optimum performance with minimum maintenance. It is only necessary to keep the external surfaces clean and free from dust. To give added protection when not in use the unit should be disconnected from the mains supply and covered with the optional dust cover (060 406). For longer-term storage or re-shipment it is recommended that the unit be returned to the original packing case.
8.3 Troubleshooting - pH Fault Possible Cause Action No display Check power supply Check that correct 9V ac power supply is connected and switched on Erratic display Check power supply The 3540 must be used with the supplied 9V ac power supply The 3540 will not operate with other power supply units Drifting, erratic readings Electrode fault Use BNC shorting plug to test the 3540 (refer Section 8.
8.
8.60 Functional Check – Conductivity A simple but effective method for checking the conductivity channel can be made with two 10K ohm resistors. One for checking the ATC function and the two together for checking the conductivity function. Disconnect all probes and connectors from the 3540 except for the power supply jack plug. The Temperature display below the conductivity reading should indicate 25.
conductivity reading should be between 180 and 220µS depending on the last calibration or cell constant setting – if in doubt set the cell constant to 1.000 and recheck. If this functions correctly then any problem is most likely to be associated with the probe – if it fails to work correctly contact your local distributor or Jenway for service advice. 8.
