SUGGESTED SEQUENCE FOR INITIAL START UP

The following is a suggested sequence for initially using your pH/ORP


meter.

1. Read the manual and familiarize getting into and out of screens
as well as change values.
2. Go the SETUP screen and enter the values and settings you
want to work with. Channels or Relays not needed can be disabled.
3. Get material for the calibration procedure. Connect probe to
either Channel 1 or Channel 2.
4. Go to the CALIBRATION screen and calibrate the meter.
Since the meter was preliminarily calibrated already, calibrate with the
temperature set at AUTO or MANUAL (enter a value) in the TMP ADJ
screen. NOTE: the temperature compensation element is located in the
cable end and not in the probe itself. Therefore, the cable end must be
immersed in the buffers to get the proper calibration. Bring the tem-
perature of cable to liquid temperature may take 5 minutes or more.
5. Go to the PROPORTIONING screen and set for ENABLED or
DISABLED. (Too prevent over runs, we suggest ENABLED.)
6. Go to the Main screen (RLY#1 and/or RLY#2) and enter the
SETPOINT, WINDOW, and ALARM values you want to use.

REMEMBER: Pressing and Releasing BOTH keys together will reset a


value to all zeros or, if not in a flashing state, bring you back to the
MAIN screen. You will need to do this when you are finished in the
CALIBRATION section and the SETUP section.

OVERVIEW OF PH/ORP METER MENU OPERATION
The following manual demonstrates how a user of the ph/orp meter can navigate through the menu system and change parameters
as needed. The main menu headings have no user adjustable settings, however all submenus behind the main menu screens do con-
sist of adjustable settings. All navigation is performed using the keypad (two keys—SELECT and CHANGE). The SELECT key
will not change any existing information. It only provides a way to move through the menu or move the flashing cursor. The
CHANGE key is used to change a value or option.. There are four input values to this meter: pH1/OPR1, pH2/ORP2, Temperature
for pH1/ORP1 and, Temperature for pH2/ORP2. These inputs are identified as “Channel” inputs 1,2,3, and 4 respectively. NOTE:
Pressing and Releasing both keys at same time will reset values to zero if cursor is flashing or return you to the first screen.

RELAY STATUS and USER INPUT MENUS


When the unit is powered up, the user should see the RLY1 screen
which as shown to the right and indicate the range being read by the
RLY1: (temp)
probe. The temperature will be shown if channel 3 is set for TMP.
+00.00 ph/orp/temp
From the RLY1 screen, the user has access to 3 submenus
(SETPOINT, WINDOW, and ALARM). THESE THREE
SCREENS SET THE PARAMETER OF THE RELAY. These screens SETPOINT1
are accessed by pressing and holding the SELECT button until the 01.00
cursor begins to flash. Toggling the SELECT key will move the cur-
sor, the CHANGE key will change values. This procedure must be
repeated to access any of these submenus. To leave the submenus and WINDOW1
accept the selected options press and hold the SELECT key while in 02.00
the submenu. The user will be returned to the RLY1menu.
1. SETPOINT: The setpoint is the desired value at which the pumps ALARM1
will not pump. This value is determined by the user and set using 02.50
the CHANGE key to cycle through values. Note: to move cursor
one spot to the right from within submenus, press and release the
SELECT button.
2. WINDOW: The value of the window setting will be either above RELAY1 MINUTES
or below the setpoint and will represent the point at which the 000000
pumps will operate continuously.
3. ALARM: The alarm value is usually set beyond the WINDOW
value. If this level is reached, an alarm will be triggered after a RELAY1 MINUTES
predetermined delay (1-99sec—this is set in the ALARM DE- 000000
LAY menu under SETUP—See Below).
Pressing and holding the SELECT key after setting values in the
ALARM submenu will bring you back to the RLY1 screen. From
here simply press and release the SELECT key to toggle to the next
main menu. The user will now be at the RELAY1 MINUTES menu.
As in all cases, to enter the submenu press and hold the SELECT key
until the cursor flashes.
1. RELAY1 MINUTES: The total “on/off” time cycles of the unit
is shown in this menu. The user can either reset this to zero or en- PRIME
ter a value or leave alone.

For each CHANNEL, there is an OFFSET value and a SPAN
value. For pH the value range is from 0 to 14 with a value of 7
being neutral. The OFFSET value ideally should be calibrated CH#(1-4) Span
to a pH of 7.0 (0.00mV) and the SPAN value ideally should be
calibrated to a ph of either 0.0 (+414mV) or 14.0 (-414mV) de-
pending on your solution to test. This unit comes pre-calibrated
using a buffer of 7.0 and 4.0. For ORP, the range is –1000 mV CH#(1-4) Span

SETUP and USER INPUT MENUS

After completing the parameters for the three relays, toggle the SE-
LECT key to advance to the PUMP MX. ON TIME screen. PUMP MAX. ON TIME
00
1. PUMP MAX ON TIME: This function is used primarily when
PROPORTIONING is ENABLED. The value set in this screen is
the maximum time the pump will run if the WINDOW value is PUMP MAX. ON TIME
reached before the meter checks the pH value. If the ph value is 00
between the SETPOINT and WINDOW values, the time the
pump will run will be proportional to the % of pH being read.
For example, with a Max On Time of 30 seconds, and the pH TMP DISPLAY
reading is halfway between the SETPOINT and WINDOW val- F
ues, the pump will run only 15 seconds (HALF the time) before
checking the pH value. As the pH value gets closer to the SET-
POINT, the less time the pump will run. One cycle is an ON/ TEMP DISPLAY
OFF state of the pump. This value can be set for any value be- FC
tween 1 and 99 seconds. A typical value would be 30 Seconds.

After setting up pump max. on time, return to the PUMP MAX ON ALARM DELAY
TIME main menu by pressing the SELECT key until the cursor stops 01 SEC
flashing. Using the SELECT key cycle through the menus until the
TEMP DISPLAY menu is displayed.
ALARM DELAY
1. TEMP DISPLAY: From this screen press and hold the SELECT 01 SEC
key until the cursor flashes. Then choose either F (Fahrenheit) or
C (Celsius) using the CHANGE key. NOTE: SETPOINTS and
ALARMS do not recalculate after changing this parameter. The
user will have to adjust the temperatures accordingly.

After setting up TMP DISPLAY, return to the TMP DISPLAY main


menu by pressing and holding the SELECT key until the cursor stops
flashing. Using the SELECT key cycle through the menus until the
ALARM DELAY menu is displayed.

ALARM DELAY: To prevent pre-mature alarms due to fluctuations


of pH, this screen sets the amount of time that will pass before the
alarm relay is activated. Press and hold the SELECT key until the
cursor flashes. Then choose a value between 1 and 99 seconds using
the CHANGE key. This will become the time in which an alarm will
be triggered after reaching the ALARM state setting determined pre-
viously (in main RELAY#1 or #2 screen).

MAINTENANCE
The PERISTALTIC Series of metering pumps require a minimal amount of
maintenance to achieve optimal performance. Periodically check the squeeze
tube for cracks, deterioration, or swelling. The squeeze tube will typically need
to be replaced about every 6 months (chemical compatibility and duty cycle
can cause this interval to vary). NOTE: Squeeze tubes are NOT a warranty
item.

VERY IMPORTANT: When replacing squeeze tubes, DO NOT TWIST


THE TUBES WHEN FITTING THEM AROUND THE ROLERS. Insert
them so they remain flat in the same plane. (The writing on the tubes should be
inline on both sides of the rollers.)

Appling lube to the squeeze tube once a month will extend the life of the tube,
minimize wear on other contacting parts, and promote smoother pump opera-
tion. Use Knight Tube Lube (P/N 245-4-SQZLUBE) or an equivalent silicone-
based lubricant.

1. Remove the faceplate of the pump.

2. Apply a thin bead of Tube Lube to the inner surface (the side that the
rollers contact) of the squeeze tube between the 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock
positions. Avoid getting the lube near the pinch points where the bottom
of the faceplate grips the tube.

3. Put the faceplate back on the pump


Activate the pump under normal conditions—the lubricant will be evenly
distributed as the pump rotates.

CAUTION: To avoid severe or fatal shock, always disconnect main power


when servicing the unit.

Questions For Troubleshooting pH Electrodes:
Questions to ask before sensor is returned: (Call first for a RMA numbers)

1. How OLD is the sensor? The 4 digit date code should be heat stamped into the top cap.
First 2 numbers are the fiscal week of the year, the last 2 are the year. For example, 0306 is the third week
of January in 2006.
Bulb electrodes have a 12 month warranty and flat surface electrodes have a 6 month warranty.
Warranty covers material and workmanship only.
Mis-application or chemical attack is NOT covered.
If the electrode is older than 12 months ( 6 months for flat), they need to purchase a new electrode.

2. What does the electrode read in 7.0 buffer and in 4.0 buffer ?
Check readings in buffers before moving any further.

Constant readings between 6.2 and 6.8, may indicate a cracked pH glass, or stem.
NOT a warranty replacement if visible crack is evident.

A constant reading of 7.00 indicates an electrical short inside the electrode or cable.
This can be a warranty replacement, if cable or connector is not damaged.

Slow or sluggish response, (more than 30 seconds to respond to change)


Indicates a coating on the electrode, or aged electrode or very low temperature.
NOT a warranty replacement. Electrode should be cleaned & re-tested.

Inability to calibrate sensor to 7.00 pH indicates a coating on the electrode , low ionic sample, or organic sol-
vent.
NOT a warranty replacement.
Electrode should be cleaned & re-tested.

Inability to calibrate sensor in 4 buffer indicates a coating on electrode or aged electrode.


NOT a warranty replacement

Readings go to 14 pH or off-scale.
Electrical open circuit.
This can be a warranty replacement
Unstable or drifting readings indicate plugged reference or electrode not plugged into meter or broken cable
wire or defect in meter.
PERHAPS a warranty replacement

3. Inspection
Look for visible signs of coating, scratches etching or breakage of pH glass.
Look for obvious signs of cuts, or breaks on cable or connector
Warranty does NOT cover mishandling/misuse by customer.
pH electrodes are sensitive, and delicate analytical instruments.

4. What is the application for this sensor?

5. Electrode calibrates in buffer, but when I install it into my system,


the reading is fixed or the reading drifts all over the place.

10
The electrode worked for a short time, and then it died.
I installed another electrode, and it lasted for about the same time, and it also died.

These are both classic symptoms of a Ground loop.


The user should take a multi-meter out to the installation.
One lead of the meter should be immersed into the water.
The other lead should be connected to an earth ground (or known electrical ground bus).
Measure for millivolts.
The presence of any millivolts is cause for ground loop failure.
Ground loops can be solved in several ways.
The quick and dirty solution is the use of our expensive Ground Loop "DA SERIES" electrodes.

An ORP electrode installed in-line, is a useful way of checking if there is ground loop in a closed piping
system.
One lead of the multimeter is connected to the center pin of the ORP electrode.
If an ORP electrode is not available, the user may take a pipe plug, and drill out a small hole.
A wire is inserted into the hole, and the hole is sealed with epoxy or other sealant.
That wire is connected to the multimeter, and the other lead connected to electrical ground.

The Care and Feeding of a pH Electrode

STORAGE:

ALL pH electrodes must always be kept wet. DO NOT STORE DRY !


Electrodes are best stored in the SOAKER SOLUTION that came with the probe.

If soaking solution is not available, store in Buffer 4.0


If not buffer 4.0 is not available, store in buffer 7.0
If buffers are not available, store in TAP WATER.
DO NOT STORE IN De-Ionized, distilled or PURE WATER.

CLEANING:

Treat the delicate pH measuring surface as you would a pair of eyeglasses.

Soft coatings may be removed by vigorous stirring in water or buffer.

Hard mineral salts may be removed by submersing in a dilute 5% HCl acid or


a citric acid bath for 10 – 15 minutes.

Oily coatings may be removed by using household detergent or isopropyl alcohol


Caution: DO NOT use Acetone or other organic solvents.

PROTEIN build-up may be removed using an enzyme based solution, such as


Terg-A-Zyme cleaner manufactured by Alconox.
* * * * * * * * * * * * *

You may wipe the sensing surface using a soft cloth with care, but a toothbrush or other abrasive brush
will likely scratch the delicate glass.

Following cleaning, calibrate the electrode.
