GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE
GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE
The HI991300 and HI991301 are lightweight, portable
pH, conductivity (or total dissolved solids) and temperature
meters for portable applications requiring both pH
and conductivity (or TDS) measurement. To increase
conductivity accuracy, two models are available, with
different conductivity ranges, for applications from purified
to brackish waters.
The HI991300 and HI991301 feature a two button
operation system and are simple to use. All operations and
settings are made through these two buttons. They have a
waterproof and compact casing rated for IP67 conditions
and a large three‑line display. The meters have automatic
pH calibration at one or two points and a single conductivity
calibration. Other user selectable features include different
TDS factors from 0.45 to 1.00, and a range of temperature
coefficients (β) from 0.0 to 2.4% for better conductivity or
TDS solution temperature compensation.
The supplied HI12883 multi‑parameter probe, incorporates
a dome shaped pH bulb rated from 0‑13 pH, a single
junction Ag/AgCl reference electrode with gelled electrolyte
and a retractable cloth wick junction, a graphite EC/TDS
cell, and a temperature sensor in one convenient, rugged
polypropylene body. In addition, to ensure against
interference from transient electrical noise to pH, a solid‑
state preamplifier is integrated into the probe. The probe is
rated from 0 to 50°C.

OPERATIONAL GUIDE
Each meter is supplied with batteries. Before using the
meter for the first time, open the battery compartment
and insert batteries, observing the polarity (see “Battery
Replacement“).
CONNECTING THE ELECTRODE
With the meter turned off, connect the HI12883 probe to the
DIN socket on the bottom of the meter by aligning the pins
and pushing in the plug firmly. Remove the protective cap
from the probe before taking any measurements.
TURNING THE METER ON
To turn the meter ON, press the button on the
front of the meter. If it does not turn on, make
sure that the batteries are properly installed in their place.
The meter is provided with an active acoustic signal when
a key is pressed.
At start‑up the meter displays all LCD segments for a few
seconds, followed by the percentage indication of the
remaining battery life, displaying “WAIT“ until electrode
check is in process then the meter enters the normal
measurement mode.

Note: The meter detects the presence and the type of the
probe at its input.
- If the probe is not connected the message “NO” ”PROBE“
appears alternatively on the tertiary LCD.
- If the probe is not compatible “WRONG” ”PROBE“
message appears alternatively on the tertiary LCD line
with “---“ blinking on the first LCD line.
