PREFACE

Congratulations with your "Nieuwkoop" EC/pH/°C-meter with automatic temperature

compensation and calibration.

With the EP1200 it is very easy to measure EC, pH and temperature in liquids and soils.

The instrument is supplied in a useful carrying case complete with calibration liquids and all the

accessories needed for measuring water and soil samples.

Due to 60 years of experience from Nieuwkoop BV in the agriculture and horticulture, the

reliability, user-friendliness and accuracy of the instrument are guaranteed.

We wish you good luck with the instrument.

Afterwards measurements can be done as in chapter 3.

CHAPTER 5, MEASURING EC AND pH IN SOIL

For measurements of EC and pH in soil firstly we have to make a soil sample. For an extraction

of 1:2 the next steps has to be followed:

- Fill the ABC sample cup up to line C with demiwater.

- Add soil to the sample cup up to line A (remove stones etc.).

- Shake the cup firmly.

- Wait until the soil has settled down and measure EC and/or pH in the water above

(see Chapter 3).

- Now you are measuring EC and/or pH in an extraction of 1 part soil and 2 parts water.

When soil extracts too much water (for example dry peat), we need to make a soil sample of 1

part soil to 5 parts water. Fill the sample cup up to line B with demiwater and up to line A with soil.

In order to get the EC-value of a 1:2 extraction; the measured EC has to be multiplied by 2,5.

TAKE CARE: The EPH-119 is programmed for the “Nieuwkoop” calibration liquids.

Use always original calibration liquids of Nieuwkoop BV. Take care the liquids are always fresh.
