The ORP probe consists of three wires; a pink, black, and red wire. There is no temperature sensor on the ORP probe.

1.Attach the clear wire to either screw on the terminal strip labeled GLASS.

2.Attach the black wire to the REF screw on the other terminal strip.

3.Attach the red wire to the GND screw on the terminal strip.

5.3.2ORP Probe Programming

1.From the Main Menu, select OPTIONS>ADVANCED OPTIONS>DATALOG.

2.Highlight Select Inputs using the UP and DOWN keys and press SELECT.

3.Highlight ORP using the UP and DOWN keys, then press SELECT.

4.Press CHANGE CHOICE to cycle between Logged and Not Logged, then press ACCEPT to continue.

5.Enter a logging interval, then press ACCEPT. Valid logging intervals are shown on the status bar along the bottom edge of the display.

6.Select another channel to configure or press RETURN to back up one step. Press MAIN MENU to return to the Main Menu.

5.3.3ORP Probe Calibration

5.3.3.1 ORP Preamplifier/Junction Box Calibration

Calibration of the ORP input circuit requires a source of dc voltage between 500 and 2000 m V dc. The reference voltage must be applied to the ORP input terminals on the preamplifier/junction box during calibration. A regulated dc power supply or a standard “C” cell battery (1500 mV dc) make excellent sources for reference voltage.

1.From the Main Menu, select OPTIONS > ADVANCED OPTIONS >

CALIBRATION > ORP.

2.Install the ORP junction box on the sampler with the ORP probe removed.

3.Apply a positive reference voltage to the ORP probe terminals in the junction box, using either a 1.5 V dc “C” cell battery or a regulated power supply.
