HI99111 is a portable, microprocessor‑based pH and
temperature meter. Main features include: extended pH
and temperature ranges; waterproof and compact casing;
large dual‑line display; low battery detection; automatic
pH calibration at one or two points within two memorized
buffer sets (standard or NIST); selectable temperature
unit (°C or °F).
The HI10483 pH probe features an open junction with
Clogging Prevention System (CPSTM) technology, has a
built‑in temperature sensor for simultaneous temperature
compensated pH and temperature readings, and also
contains an integral pH sensor preamplifier to provide
measurements impervious to noise and electrical interferences

and insert batteries, observing the polarity (see “Battery
Replacement“).
TO CONNECT THE ELECTRODE
With the meter turned off, connect the HI10483 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.

OPERATIONAL GUIDE
TO TURN 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, 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 secondary LCD
with “---“ blinking on the first LCD line.
- If the probe is not compatible “WRONG” ”PROBE“
message appears alternatively on the secondary LCD
with “---“ blinking on the first LCD line.
- If the readings are out of range, the nearest range limits
are displayed blinking (E.g. -2.00 pH -5.0 °C).
TO SELECT THE MEASUREMENT RANGE
While in measurement mode, press the SET button to select
pH or pH‑mV measurement on the first LCD line.
TO FREEZE THE MEASUREMENT VALUES
While in measurement mode, press and hold the SET
button until “HOLD“ appears on the secondary LCD. The
“HOLD“ remains for 1 second and reading of pH, mV and
temperature will be frozen on the LCD with “H” blinking.

OPERATIONAL GUIDE
pH MEASUREMENT & CALIBRATION
Make sure the meter has been
calibrated before use.
If the probe is dry, soak it in
HI70300 storage solution for
30 minutes to reactivate it. If
fouled, clean the electrode by soaking in cleaning solution
for 20 minutes, then rinse the tip and soak in storage
solution at least 30 minutes before use.
Rinse the electrode off well and shake off excess droplets.
Recalibrate before using. Submerge the probe in the sample
to be tested while stirring it gently. Wait until the tag
on the LCD disappears.
The LCD displays the pH value (automatically compensated
for temperature) on the primary LCD, while the secondary
LCD displays the sample temperature. If measurements are
taken in different samples successively, rinse the probe tip
thoroughly†to eliminate cross‑contamination.

Press any button to resume active measurements.
TO ENTER CALIBRATION MODE
Press and hold the button until ”POWER” and tag
is replaced by “STD“ and tag. Release the button.
TO ENTER SETUP MODE
Press and hold button until “STD“ and tag
is replaced by “SETUP“ and tag.
Release the button.
TO TURN THE METER OFF
While in measurement mode, press the button.
”POWER” and tag will appear.
Release the button.
