WARRANTY
HI 8510, HI 8512, HI 8710, HI 8711 and HI 8720 are guaranteed
for two years against defects in workmanship and materials when used
for their intended purpose and maintained according to instructions.
Electrodes and probes are guaranteed for six months. This warranty is
limited to repair or replacement free of charge.
Damage due to accidents, misuse, tampering or lack of prescribed
maintenance is not covered.
If service is required, contact the dealer from whom you purchased
the instrument. If under warranty, report the model number, date of
purchase, serial number and the nature of the problem. If the repair is
not covered by the warranty, you will be notified of the charges
incurred. If the instrument is to be returned to Hanna Instruments,
first obtain a Returned Goods Authorization number from the Technical
Service department and then send it with shipping costs prepaid. When
shipping any instrument, make sure it is properly packed for complete
protection.

Remove the instrument from the packing material and examine it
carefully to make sure that no damage has occurred during shipping.
If there is any noticeable damage, immediately notify your dealer.
Each model is supplied with:
• Transparent Splash-proof Front Cover
• Mounting Brackets
• Instruction Manual
Note: Save all packing materials until you are sure that the instrument
functions correctly. All defective items must be returned in the
original packing materials together with the supplied accessories.
HI 8510 and HI 8512 pH and ORP panel-mounted indicators, and
HI 8710, HI 8711 and HI 8720 pH and ORP controllers, are ideal for
process control monitoring in a wide range of industrial applications.
These instruments have been designed for easy and fast installation,
and are provided with membrane keypads on the front panel, large
display and autodiagnostic functions.
All connections are made through screw terminals on the rear panel.
Each model accepts either a direct input from a pH or ORP electrode or
from a transmitter through 4-20mA input. The instrument also
provides ±5V power output and input terminals for amplified
electrodes.
Moreover, you can choose the output configuration for connecting a
recorder or a PLC, between 0-20 or 4-20 mA.
Note: In order to avoid damages and erroneous readings:
• do never connect more than one electrode type (BNC, amplified
or input transmitter) to the instrument.
• do never use both the 0-20 mA and 4-20 mA recorder
outputs at the same time.
Other features include over time control function, selection of the dosing
direction (ACID, ALKALINE - HI 8710; OXID, REDUC - HI 8720) and the
possibility to set dosing action mode (OFF/AUTO/ON).

The meters are provided with a black anodized aluminum body,
front and back panels in shockproof ABS plastic and a transparent
splash-proof front cover.

The dimensions show the cutout size for the installation.
Side view of the panel-mounted unit
Adjustable location brackets (supplied with the meter) allow the
indicator to slide into the cutout and will hold the unit securely in
place. 190 mm (7.50") is the minimum space required to install the
indicator with complete wiring.
