pH 209V
Complete Laboratory Kit
for pH & ORP Measurements
in Wine, Must and Grape Juice

32
pH 209V is a complete laboratory kit for pH and ORP measurements in wine,
must and grape juice.
The kit also includes a special pH electrode (HI 1048B), which has been
designed for application in must and wine analysis, and a digital thermometer
(HI 98501) for measuring temperature and for using as reference during
manual temperature compensation procedure of pH readings.
The HI 1048B is a refillable pH electrode provided with a porous PTFE junction
sleeve, which ensures the right electrolyte flux, avoids clogging and allows
accurate pH measurements in “difficult” samples as must and wine.
This meter can be calibrated at 2 points, pH 7 and pH 3, and it is provided
with an easy manual temperature compensation.
The adjustable knobs are located on the front panel for easy operations.

• Press the pH key to display the pH measurement.
• The display shows the pH value of the test solution compensated for
temperature.
If measurements are taken in different samples successively, it is recommended
to rinse thoroughly the electrode with water, and then for some of the next
solution to be measured.
TAKING ORP MEASUREMENTS
pH 209 can also measure ORP, using an ORP electrode. Hanna Instruments
offers a variety of ORP electrodes for this purpose. Contact your dealer for more
information.
• Connect the ORP electrode to the meter and sub-
merge the tip (4 cm / 1½") into the sample to be
tested.
Note: ORP measurements are not compensated for temperature variation.
• Press the mV key to enter the mV mode and allow a few minutes for the reading
to stabilize.
• The display will show the ORP (mV) value.
AFTER MEASUREMENTS
• Press the ON/OFF button to switch the instrument off.
Power connection
Plug the 12 Vdc adapter into the power supply socket (#9 on page 4).
Note: Make sure the main line is protected by a fuse.
Electrode connection
For pH or ORP electrodes with internal reference, connect the electrode to the
BNC socket on the rear panel (#10 on page 4).
For electrodes with separate reference, plug the BNC connector of the electrode
to the BNC socket (#10 on page 4), and the reference electrode to the proper
socket (#11 on page 4) on the rear panel.
Note: To prevent damage to the electrode, remove the pH electrode from the
solution before turning the meter off. With the meter OFF, detach the
electrode and immerse it in the storage solution.
TAKING pH MEASUREMENTS
Make sure that the instrument has been calibrated for pH before taking pH
measurements.
• Switch the instrument on by pressing the ON/OFF
button.
• Immerse the electrode tip (4 cm/1½") into the
sample and shake briefly.
• Take the temperature of the solution with the sup-
plied HI 98501 thermometer (e.g. 25°C).
• Press the °C key to display temperature setting on the LCD and adjust the
temperature knob to display the temperature of the sample.

IMPORTANT
For better accuracy it is recommended to calibrate the instrument frequently.
Calibration should be performed whenever the pH electrode is replaced, after
performing a cleaning procedure or changing the reference electrolyte, and at
least once a month.
INITIAL PREPARATION
Pour small quantities of pH 7.01 (HI 7007) and pH 3.00 (HI 5003) solutions
into clean beakers.
For accurate calibration, use two beakers for
each buffer solution; the first for rinsing the
electrode, the second for calibration.
Note: The electrode should be submerged at least 4 cm (1½") into the solution.
PROCEDURE
Note: If you need to calibrate to NBS standards, use pH 6.86 (HI 7006)
solution instead of pH 7.01.
Use the supplied HI 98501 thermometer as reference.
• Switch the instrument on by pressing the ON/OFF
button.
• Rinse and immerse the pH electrode in pH 7.01 buffer
and shake briefly. Wait a couple of minutes for the
reading to stabilize.
• Note the temperature of the buffer solution using the
supplied HI 98501 thermometer (e.g. 20°C).
• Press the °C key to select temperature setting, then adjust the Temperature
knob until the LCD shows the noted temperature.
pH CALIBRATION
• Press the pH key to select pH measurement.
• Wait a couple of minutes, then adjust the OFFSET knob until the display
shows the pH value at the noted temperature (see the "pH versus
temperature" chart at page 10).
• Rinse and immerse the pH electrode in pH 3.00 buffer and shake briefly.
• Wait a couple of minutes, then adjust the SLOPE knob until the display
shows the pH value at the noted temperature (see the "pH versus
temperature" chart at page 10).
• The pH calibration is now complete.

pH ELECTRODE MAINTENANCE
Preparation
Remove the electrode protective cap. Do not be alarmed if any salt deposits are
present: this is normal with electrodes and they will disappear when rinsed with
water.
During transport tiny bubbles of air may have formed inside the glass bulb. The
electrode cannot function properly under these conditions. These bubbles can be
removed by "shaking down" the electrode as you would do with a glass
thermometer.
Sensitive bulb
To avoid clogging problems and ensure a fast response, the bulb must be kept
moist at any time. Store the electrode with few drops of HI 70300 storage
solution in the protective cap. NEVER USE DISTILLED OR DEIONIZED WATER FOR
STORING PURPOSES.
Periodic maintenance
Inspect electrode and cable. The cable used for the connection to the meter must
be intact and there must be no points of broken insulation. The connector must
be perfectly clean and dry. If any scratches or cracks are present, replace the
electrode.
Refilling the electrode
ALWAYS VERIFY THE ELECTROLYTE LEVEL.
If the electrolyte level is more than 2 cm below
the refilling hole, unscrew and remove the refill-
ing hole cap.
Add the 3.5M KCl electrolyte solution (HI 7082)
by using the supplied syringe. Tighten back the
cap. Wait at least 1 hour before using the
electrode.
pH VALUES AT VARIOUS TEMPERATURES
pH readings are strongly affected by temperature. The calibration buffer
solutions are affected by temperature changes to a lesser degree than normal
solutions.
For manual temperature calibration please refer to the following chart.
Note: To prevent damage to the electrode, remove the pH electrode from the
sample before turning the meter off. With the meter OFF, detach the
electrode from the meter and immerse it in the storage solution.

Cleaning procedure
After use, clean the electrode by immersing it in the proper cleaning solution (HI
700635 or HI 700636) for 5 minutes.
If case of slow and unreliable readings, it is recommended to perform the
following procedure for cleaning the junction:
1. Shift upwards the PTFE collar. If the collar does not shift easily, immerse it
into warm water.
2. Wipe gently the electrode surface with a soft and clean tissue.
3. In case of persistent wine or must residual, wet the tissue with cleaning
solution (HI 700635 or HI 700636).
4. Put back the collar in its original position.
Troubleshooting
Evaluate your electrode performance based on the following.
•Noise (Readings fluctuate up and down) could be due to:
– Clogged/Dirty Junction: refer to the cleaning procedure above.
– Loss of shielding due to low electrolyte level (in refillable electrodes
only): refill with fresh HI 7082 solution.
•Dry Membrane/Junction: soak in HI 70300 storage solution for 1 hour.
•Drifting: soak the electrode tip in warm (approx. 50-60°C) HI 7082
solution for one hour and rinse the tip with distilled water. Refill with fresh
HI 7082 solution.
•Low Slope: refer to the cleaning procedure above.
•No Slope: check the electrode for cracks in glass stem or bulb and replace
the electrode.
•Slow Response/Excessive Drift: soak the tip in HI 7061 solution for 30
minutes, rinse thoroughly in distilled water and then follow the cleaning
procedure above.
