GENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI 222 is a logging microprocessor-based pH/ORP/temperature bench meter
with Calibration Check.
Calibration Check performs a set of diagnostic tests during calibration using the
history of electrode slope and offset to detect problems that can cause loss of
accuracy.
Calibration Check Features are listed below:
• Enhanced Calibration Messages
During calibration the user is warned if one or more parameters are not suitable
to perform an accurate calibration.
• Electrode Condition on LCD Display
Determined from the electrode offset and slope.
• Electrode response time on LCD Display
Determined from electrode performance during calibration.
• Calibration Alarm Time Out
Can be programmed from 1 to 7 days or can be disabled.
Other features include 1 or 2-point pH calibration with seven memorized
buffers (1.68, 3.00, 6.86, 7.01, 9.18, 10.01 and 12.45 pH), logging up to
100 samples, last calibration date and data (GLP), pH reading with manual
or automatic temperature compensation and PC interface software.
The pH 3.00 memorized buffer makes the instrument useful for wine pH
measurements.

OPERATIONAL GUIDE
POWER CONNECTION
Plug the 12 VDC adapter into the power supply socket.
Note: These instruments use non volatile memory to retain the pH, mV,
temperature calibrations and all other settings, even when unplugged.
Note: Make sure a fuse protects the mains line.
ELECTRODE AND PROBE CONNECTIONS
For HANNA P Type pH or ORP electrodes (with internal reference) connect the
electrode’s BNC to the socket on the back of the instrument and the pin to the
appropriate socket.
Note: Electrode condition and response information is displayed on the bar
graph gauges. During the day the calibration is performed only if
HANNA P type (PIN) electrodes are used.
If the electrode is not recognized as a HANNA P type electrode, the bar
graph gauges will blink (25 seconds OFF, 4 seconds ON, full bar graph).
For temperature measurement and automatic temperature compensation
connect the temperature probe to the appropriate socket.
INSTRUMENT START-UP
• Turn the instrument on by pressing the ON/OFF switch.
• All LCD tags are displayed and a beep is sounded
while the instrument performs a self test.
• The “Unscrew electrode refilling cap” message reminds the user to loosen
or remove the electrode refilling cap to improve the electrode’s response
time.
• The instrument automatically defaults to pH measurement mode unless a
HANNA P type ORP electrode is detected.
pH MEASUREMENT
Make sure the instrument has been calibrated before
taking pH measurements.
• Submerge the tip (4 cm/1½”) of a properly condi-
tioned electrode (see page 31) and the tempera-
ture probe into the sample to be tested. Allow time
for the electrode to stabilize.

• The pH is displayed on the primary LCD and the temperature on the
secondary LCD.
• The pH reading is out of range, the closest full-scale value will be displayed
blinking on the primary LCD.
• It is also possible to view the mV reading by pressing the RANGE key.
If measurements are taken successively in different samples, it is recommended
to rinse the electrode thoroughly with deionized water or tap water and then
with some of the next sample to prevent cross-contamination.
The pH reading is affected by temperature. In order to measure the pH
accurately, this temperature effect must be compensated for. To use the
Automatic Temperature Compensation feature, connect
and submerge the HI 7669/2W temperature probe into
the sample as close to the electrode as possible and wait
for a few minutes.
If the temperature of the sample is known, manual compensation can be
performed by disconnecting the temperature probe.
The display will then show the default temperature of 25 °C
or the last recorded temperature reading with the “°C”
symbol blinking.
The temperature can now be adjusted with the ARROW keys (from -20.0 ºC
to 120.0 ºC).
ORP MEASUREMENTS
An optional ORP electrode must be used to perform ORP measurements (see
Accessories).
Oxidation-Reduction Potential (REDOX) measurements provide the quantifica-
tion of the oxidizing or reducing power of the tested sample.
To correctly perform a REDOX measurement, the surface of the ORP electrode
must be clean and smooth. Pretreatment solutions are available to condition
the electrode and speed up the response time.

• The instrument automatically defaults to the ORP
measurement mode if HANNA P type ORP electrode
is detected.
• Submerge the ORP electrode tip (4 cm/1½”) into the
sample. Allow a few minutes for the reading to sta-
bilize.
• The instrument displays the mV reading on the primary LCD.
• If the reading is out of range, the closest full-scale value will be displayed
blinking on the primary LCD.
TAKING TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS
Connect the HI 7669/2W temperature probe and turn the
instrument on. Dip the temperature probe into the sample and
allow the reading on the secondary LCD to stabilize.
Calibrate the instrument frequently, especially if high accuracy is required. For
best results and constant display of electrode condition and electrode response
on the bar graph gauges we suggest at least a daily calibration.
The instrument should be re-calibrated:
• Whenever the pH electrode is replaced.
• At least once a day.
• After testing aggressive chemicals.
• If high accuracy is required.
• If CAL DUE message is displayed during measurement.
Every time you calibrate the instrument use fresh buffers and perform an
electrode cleaning procedure (see page 31).
PREPARATION
Pour small quantities of the buffer solutions into clean beakers. If possible, use
plastic or glass beakers to minimize any EMC interferences.
For accurate calibration and to minimize cross-contamination, use two beakers
for each buffer solution. One for rinsing the electrode and one for calibration.

BUFFER 1
PROCEDURE
The user has a choice of 7 memorized buffers: pH 1.68, 3.00, 6.86, 7.01,
9.18, 10.01 and 12.45.
It is always recommended to perform a two-point calibration. The instrument
however allows a one-point calibration, as described on page 10.
TWO-POINT CALIBRATION
For most applications it is recommended that pH 7.01 or 6.86 buffers to be
used as the first calibration point and pH 3.00 (for acidic samples) or pH
9.18/10.01 (for alkaline samples) as the second calibration point.
Note: The pH 12.45 buffer is not for general measurement; use only if the
sample is very alkaline to avoid sodium error.
• Immerse the pH electrode and the temperature probe approximately
4 cm (1½”) into the buffer solution of your choice (pH 1.68, 3.00,
6.86, 7.01, 9.18, 10.01 or 12.45) and stir gently. The temperature
probe should be close to the pH electrode.
• Press the CAL key. “CAL” and “pH” tags will be on, and the “CLEAR
CAL if new electrode” tag will blink.
• Press the CLR key if you are using a new electrode or want to clear the
calibration history. The instrument will display the “donE” message for
a few seconds.
It is very important to clear the calibration history when a new electrode is
used because all error and warning messages that appear during calibration
depend on the calibration history.
• Press the CAL key or wait a few seconds to continue.
Note: The above behavior appears only if calibration history is not empty.
• The instrument will display the measured pH on the primary LCD, and
the most common buffer (“7.01”) on the secondary LCD, along with
“CAL”, “pH” and “BUFFER 1” tags.
• The “ ” tag will blink until the reading has stabilized.

• Press the ARROW keys to select a different buffer value, if necessary.
• When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer, the “CFM”
tag will blink and if enabled, an audible signal will sound.
• Press the CFM key to confirm calibration. The instrument will ask for a
second calibration buffer and will display the measured pH on the first LCD
and the second calibration buffer on the second LCD.
• If necessary, press the ARROW keys to select a different buffer value.
Note: The instrument will automatically skip the buffer used for the first point.
It also skips 6.86 if 7.01 was used, and vice versa. Likewise, it will skip
9.18 if 10.01 has been used, and vice versa.
• Rinse the electrode in one of the beakers of the second buffer solution, then
immerse the pH electrode and the temperature probe approximately 4 cm
(1½”) into the second buffer solution and stir gently. The temperature
probe should be close to the pH electrode.
• The “ ” indication will blink on LCD until the reading has stabilized.
• When the reading is stable and close to the selected buffer, the
“CFM” tag will blink.
• Press the CFM key to confirm the calibration.
The instrument will return to normal operational mode and will memorize the
calibration data.
Note: Press the RANGE key any time during calibration to display the
temperature reading.
ONE-POINT CALIBRATION
• Proceed as described in “two-point calibration” section.
• Press the CAL key after the first calibration point has been confirmed.
The instrument will return to normal operational mode and will memorize the
one-point calibration data.
