5 . Press
to proceed to the next calibration point, rinse the conductivity probe
with distilled or deionized water, place it into the next conductivity standard and
repeat step 4a / 4b or press
6 . The cell constant will be displayed in the main field and the meter will

Conductivity Measurement
Note: Turn on the automatic datalog feature to send measurements to the meter
datalog at the frequency specified in each measurement mode. Refer to the Data
Archiving and Retrieval section for details. If the automatic datalog feature is off,
connect the meter to a printer or computer to record the measurements.
1 . Rinse the conductivity probe with distilled or deionized water . Shake off any
excess water and blot the probe dry with lint-free tissue .
2 . Place the conductivity probe into the sample .
a . If the meter is in the continuous measurement mode, it will start reading
immediately and continuously update the display . The μS/cm or mS/cm
icon will flash until the reading is stable . Once the reading is stable, log and
print the measurement by pressing
the stirrer is enabled, press
off the stirrer before removing the probe and stirrer from the sample .
b . If the meter is in the AUTO-READ measurement mode, press
the reading . The AR icon will flash until the reading is stable . Once the
reading is stable, the meter will log and print the measurement and freeze
the display . If a benchtop meter is used and the stirrer is enabled, the stirrer
will turn on when
