PORTABLE uP-BASED

pH METER

MODEL: SM102

Smart pH Meter

OPERATION:

• The meter is supplied complete with a

9V battery. Slide off the battery compart-
ment cover on the back of the meter
and install the battery while paying at-
tention to its polarity.

• Always remove the electrode protective

cap before taking any measurement. If
the electrode has been left dry, soak
the tip (bottom 2.5 cm) in rinse solution
(M10000B) for a few minutes to reacti-
vate it.

• C o n n e c t t h e p H

electrode and the
temperature probe
to the sockets on
t h e m e t e r ’ s t o p .
The temperature
probe can be used
independently to
take temperature
measurements, or
it can be used in
c o n j u n c t i o n w i t h
the pH electrode to utilize the meter’s
ATC capability.

• Turn the instrument on by pressing the

ON/OFF key.

• Before taking any mea-

surements, make sure
that the meter has al-
ready been calibrated.

• Immerse the tip (2.5 cm)

of the pH electrode and
the temperature probe
into the sample and stir
gently.

• Take the pH reading when the hour-

glass symbol stops blinking.

• To display the mea-

sured temperature,
press and hold the
°C key.
When the key is released, the display
will return to the pH reading.

• The HOLD function is activated by

keeping pressed the HOLD key.
The measured value is frozen on
the display and the “HOLD” tag
lights up.

• After measurements, switch the

meter off and store the electrode
with a few drops of storage solu-
tion in the protective cap.

• Error message on display:

CALIBRATION PROCEDURE:

A) Preparation:

Reference solutions:
1. pH 7.01 (MA 9007)
2. pH 4.01 (MA 9004) for measuring

in the acid range (pH lower than 7)
or pH 10.01 (MA 9010) for measur-
ing in the alkaline range (pH higher
than 7).

Use two beakers for each reference so-
l u t i o n . O n e b e a k e r f o r r i n s i n g t h e
electrode, the other for calibration. This
way contamination between solutions
during calibration is minimized.

B) Procedure:
•

Remove the electrode
protective cap and rinse
t h e t i p w i t h s o m e
pH7.01 solution, then
immerse the electrode
and the temperature
probe into a pH7.01
buffer solution.

•

Press the CAL key
to enter the Cali-
bration mode. The
d i s p l a y f l a s h e s
“pH 7.01” and the
hourglass lights up.

•

Blinking full scale value: reading is
over range;

•

“Eb”: battery low voltage indication;

•

“Ec”: wrong buffer solution;

•

“Clr”: the calibration data have been
lost and recalibration is needed.
