Hanna Instruments HI 222 Instruction Manual

Contents

25The instruments are factory calibrated for temperature.Hanna’s temperature probes are interchangeable and temperature calibra-tion is not necessary when replaced.If the temperature measurements are not accurate, temperature recalibrationshould be performed.For an accurate recalibration, contact your dealer or the nearest HannaCustomer Service Center, or follow the instructions below.• Switch off the instrument.• Prepare a vessel containing ice and water and another one containing hotwater (around 50 °C). Place insulation material around the vessels tominimize temperature changes during calibration.• Use a ChecktempC or a calibrated thermometer with a resolution of 0.1 °Cas a reference thermometer.• Immerse the temperature probe and the ChecktempC into the vesselcontaining ice and water. Wait a few minutes for the probe to stabilize.• Press the CAL and LOG keys simultaneously and then switch the instru-ment on. After a few seconds, the instrument enters the temperaturecalibration mode. The “CAL” tag will come on. The primary LCD willdisplay the measured temperature or the ”- - - -” message if themeasured temperature is out of range. The secondary LCD will display 0.0 °C(First calibration point). The “ ”tag will blink until the reading hasstabilized.• Use the ARROW keys to set the reading on the secondary LCD to that ofice and water measured by ChecktempC (for example, -0.1 °C).• When the reading is stable and close to the selected calibration point, the“CFM” tag will blink.• Press the CFM key to confirm the calibration or the CAL key to leave thecalibration mode.• The secondary LCD will display 50.0 °C (Second calibration point).• Immerse the temperature probe and the ChecktempC into the secondvessel.• Allow a few minutes for the probe to stabilize.CALC-0.1°CTEMPERATURE CALIBRATION(for technical personnel only)
