USER MANUAL
PORTABLE uP-BASED
pH METER
MODEL: MW102
WARRANTY:
This instrument is warranted from all defects in materials
and manufacturing for a period of two years from the date
of purchase.
The electrode is warranted for a period of six
months.
If during this period the repair or replacement of parts is
required, where the damage is not due to negligence or
erroneous operation by the user, please return the parts to
either distributor or our office and the repair will be effected
free of change.
Note: We reserve the right to modify the design,
construction and appearance of our products without
advance notice.
OPERATION:
• The meter is supplied complete with a 9V
battery. Slide off the battery compartment
cover on the back of the meter and install the
battery into battery clip connector while
observing polarity.
• Always remove the electrode protective cap
before taking any measurement. If the
electrode has been left dry, soak the tip
(bottom 2.5 cm) in rinse solution (M10000B)
for a few minutes to
reactivate it.
• Connect the pH
electrode and the t e m p
e r a t u r e probe to the
sockets on the meter’s
top. The temperature
probe can be used
independently to take
temperature
measurements, or it can
be used in conjunction with the pH electrode
toutilize the meter’s ATC capability.
• Turn the instrument on by pressing the
ON/OFF key.
• Before taking any measurements, make sure
that the meter has already been calibrated.
• Immerse the tip (2.5 cm) of the pH
electrode and the temperature
probe into the sample and stir
gently.
• The pH measurement is ready
when the hourglass symbol stops
blinking.
• To display the measured
temperature, press and hold
the °C key.
When the key is released, the display will
return to the pH reading.
• The HOLD function is activated by
pressing the HOLD key. The
measured value is frozen on the
display and the “HOLD” tag lights up. Release
“HOLD” by pressing HOLD key again.
• After completing measurements,
switch the meter off and store the
electrode with a few drops of storage solution
in the protective cap.
• Error message on display:
• Blinking full scale value: reading is over
range;
• “Eb”: battery low voltage indication;
• “Ec”: wrong buffer solution;
• “Clr”: the calibration data have been lost
and recalibration is needed.
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE:
A) Preparation:
Select two pH calibration buffers: pH 7.01 and
a second to bracket your measurement range.
1. pH 7.01 (MA9007)
2. pH 4.01 (MA9004) for measuring in the
acid range (pH lower than 7) or pH 10.01
(MA9010) for measuring in the alkaline range
(pH higher than 7).
Use two beakers for each reference solution.
One beaker for rinsing the electrode, the other
for calibration. This way contamination
between solutions during calibration is
minimized.
B) Procedure:
Offset calibration
• Remove the electrode
protective cap and rinse the tip
with some pH 7.01 solution, then
immerse the electrode tip and
the temperature probe into a pH
7.01 buffer solution.
• Press the CAL key to
enter the Calibration mode.
The display flashes “pH 7.01” and the
hourglass lights up.

• Wait till the hourglass symbol on the
display turns off and the “pH” tag stops
blinking, then press the
CFM key to confirm the
offset calibration.
Note: Pressing the CAL key again will
change the buffer value, allowing a single
point calibration at pH 4.01 or pH 10.01.
Slope calibration
• After completing the pH 7.01 calibration
the next buffer pH 4.01 will flash on the
display.
• Press CAL key to display pH 10.01 if
desired.
• Rinse the pH electrode and the
temperature probe in the rinse
buffer beaker, then immerse
them into the second
buffer beaker.
• Wait till the hourglass symbol on the LCD
turns off, then press the CFM key to
confirm the slope calibration.
Notes:
• To exit the calibration mode, turn the
meter off by pressing the ON/OFF key.
• To perform a single point calibration
(offset) at pH 7.01, press the ON/OFF key
when the second buffer is displayed.
• After battery replacement, the meter
displays the “Clr” message and
recalibration is needed.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT:
When the battery becomes weak a reliable
measurement can not be guaranteed. The
meter will display “Eb” for a while and then
turn off.
Prompt battery replacement is required.
Battery replacement must only take place in
a non-hazardous area using a 9V alkaline
battery.
Turn the meter off, slide
the battery compartment
cover located at the rear of
the meter off and replace
the 9V battery with a new
one.
Make sure the battery
contacts are fully engaged
in the connector, seat the
battery in its compartment
and replace the cover.
