tiny air bubbles are present inside the pH-sensitive glass

membrane, gently shake the electrode downward to remove air

bubbles.

3. If the glass membrane has dried out, soak the electrode in 3M

KCl or pH 4.01 buffer solution for about 30 minutes.

Switching the Tester On and Off

•Press and hold the Meas key for about 5 seconds to switch on

the tester.

•Press and hold the Meas key to switch off the tester.

If you do not press any key within 8 minutes, the tester will switch off

automatically to conserve energy.

pH Calibration

The PHscan40 tester allows 1 to 3 points calibration, we recommend

that you perform at least 2 points calibration for accurate pH

measurement, the tester will automatically recognize and calibrate to

following standard buffer values.

USA standards

pH 4.01, 7.00, 10.01

NIST standards

pH 4.01, 6.86, 9.18

Single point calibration should only be carried out with the pH 7.00

or 6.86, otherwise calibration will not be accepted.

For better accuracy, we recommend calibrating the tester regularly.

DO NOT reuse the buffer solutions after calibration, contaminants in.

solution will affect the calibration and eventually the accuracy of the.

measurement.

Single Point Calibration

Ensure that you have selected 1 point calibration in the setup menu.

1.1 Press the Cal key, the tester shows pH 7.00/CAL 1.

1.2 Rinse the electrode with distilled water and place into the pH

7.00 buffer solution, stir the electrode gently to create a

homogeneous solution.

1.3 Press the Enter key, the tester begins the calibration. When the

reading has stabilized, the display will show . Calibration

is completed.

point is completed, the display will show ---- / CAL 2, the tester

prompts you to continue with second point calibration.

2.2 Rinse the electrode with distilled water and place into the pH

4.01 or 10.01 buffer solution, stir the electrode gently.

2.3 Press the Enter key, the tester automatically recognizes the buffer

solution and begins calibration. When the reading has stabilized,

the display automatically shows the electrode slope (e.g., 99%)

and . Second point calibration is completed.

3 Points Calibration

3.1 Repeat steps 1.1 through 1.3 above. When the first calibration

point is completed, the display will show pH 4.01/CAL 2, the tester

prompts you to continue with second point calibration.

3.2 Rinse the electrode with distilled water and place into the pH

4.01 buffer solution, stir the electrode gently. Press the Enter

key to begin the calibration.When the reading has stabilized, the

display will automatically show the electrode slope and pH 10.01

/CAL 3.

3.3 Rinse the electrode with distilled water and place into the pH

10.01 buffer solution, stir the electrode gently. Press the Enter

key to begin the calibration. When the reading has stabilized,

the display will automatically shows the electrode slope and

. Calibration is completed.

•During the calibration, if the display shows indicating that

the measured mV value for the current calibration point deviates

by more than 60 mV (approximately ± 1 pH ) from the theoretical

value of the pH buffer. The calibration will not be accepted.

Please check the electrode and make sure the buffer solutions

are fresh and uncontaminated.

•To exit the calibration without saving calibrated values, press

the Meas key.

Measurement

1. Rinse the electrode with distilled water. Place the electrode into

the sample solution and stir gently. Note, the pH-sensitive glass

membrane and liquid junction must be completely immersed into

the solution.

2. If the option is enabled in the setup menu, the tester will

automatically lock the measurement endpoint and show HOLD

icon. Press the Meas key to resume measuring.

If the option is disabled, the tester will continuously measure and

update the readings.

3. Wait for the measurement to stabilize and record the reading.

4. When all of the samples have been measured, rinse the electrode

according to the instructions in the Electrode Maintenance.

During the measurement process, if the display shows ---- indicating

the measurement exceeds the range.

Appendix

Preparation of pH Buffer Solutions

The PHscan40 tester is packaged with the pH 4.01/7.00/10.01 buffer

sachets required for calibration.

1. Half fill a 250 ml volumetric flask with distilled water and add the

pH 7.00 buffer reagent.

2. Swirl the volumetric flask gently to dissolve the reagent and fill

to the mark with distilled water.

3. Cap and upend the volumetric flask several times to mix solution.

•Preparation of pH 4.01 and 10.01 buffer solutions are the same

as above.

•Prepared buffer solution should be stored in hermetically sealed

glass container and avoid direct sunlight.

Preparation of Electrode Storage Solution

Dissolve 24.6 grams of analytical grade KCl reagent in 100 ml distilled

water. Add pH 4.01 standard buffer and adjust solution to pH 4.

Electrode Maintenance

Cleaning the Electrode

Since pH electrode is susceptible to contamination, thoroughly clean

as necessary after each use.

•General Cleaning

Rinse the pH electrode with distilled water and soak in 3M KCl

solution.

•Salt Deposits

Dissolve the deposit by immersing the electrode in warm tap

water. Rinse the electrode with distilled water and soak in 3M

KCl solution.

•Oil or Grease

Place the electrode in the detergent or ethanol solution for 15

minutes. Rinse the electrode with distilled water and soak in 3M

KCl solution.

•Protein

(1) Add 1% pepsin to 0.1M HCl solution.

(2) Place the electrode in above solution for 15 minutes.

(3) Rinse the electrode with distilled water and soak in 3M KCl

solution.

•Clogged Liquid Junction

(1) Heat a diluted KCl solution to 60° C (140° F).

(2) Place the electrode into the heated solution for 10 minutes.

(3) Allow the electrode to cool in unheated KCl solution.

Reactivating the Electrode

If the pH-sensitive membrane has dried out, the electrode response

will become sluggish. Immerse the electrode in a pH 4.01 buffer

solution for about 30 minutes to rehydrate. If this fails, the electrode

requires activation.

1. Soak the electrode in 0.1M HCl for 10 minutes.

2. Remove and rinse with distilled water, then place into 0.1M

NaOH for 10 minutes.

3. Remove and rinse again, and soak in 3M KCl solution for at least

6 hours.

If these steps fail to restore the response, replace the electrode.

Storing the Electrode

For best results, always soak the electrode in 3M KCl solution. If above

solution is not available, use a pH 4.01 buffer solution.

DO NOT store the electrode in distilled or deionized water that will

deplete the hydration layer of the pH-sensitive membrane and render

the electrode useless.

If you do not use the electrode for a period longer than 1 month, store

the electrode in storage solution.
