The HI98103 Checker pH tester is the next generation of the original Hanna Checker pH tester
The Checker is the most popular pH meter in the world with over 1 million meters used since its introduction in 1991.
From students to researchers, the Checker has been helping people with their pH measurement as a meter that is simple to use and operate.
The HI98103 Checker pH tester has been designed with many advanced features while maintaining the look and feel of the original Checker. The redesigned Checker now offers automatic calibration to one or two points, automatic buffer recognition, calibrated buffer tags, stability indicator, low battery indicator, and selectable automatic shut-off.
The Checker plus still maintains the iconic pentagon design with a probe that measures 103 mm in length and tapered to an 8 mm diameter making it ideal for test tubes and vials.

Features at-a-glance:
Economical – The Checker is a full-featured pH tester at a price that anyone that needs to measure pH can afford.
Large LCD – Enhanced LCD that displays the reading, stability indicator, low battery indicator, and calibration tags.
Replaceable pH Electrode – The HI1271* supplied gel-filled pH electrode tapers to an 8 mm diameter at the sensing end. This narrow electrode easily fits into test tubes, vials, and other containers with a small opening.
Automatic Calibration – The Checker is calibrated automatically to one or two points. The calibration buffers are automatically recognized and after calibration, the buffer values used are shown on the display as a tag.
Stability Indicator – An hourglass indicator is displayed on the LCD until a stable reading is obtained. Once a reading stabilized the indicator disappears and a reading can be recorded.
Automatic Shut-Off – The meter can be set to automatically turn off after 8 minutes or 60 minutes to conserve battery life in the event that the meter is left on. The auto-off feature can be disabled.
Long Battery Life – The Checker Plus has an exceptionally long battery life of approximately 1000 hours. When the battery power is running low a low battery indicator is displayed.

QUICK TIP:
Meter Overview
Preparation:
The pH electrode is shipped dry. Before using the Checker®, remove the protective cap and condition the electrode by soaking the tip (bottom 4 cm (1.5”)) in pH 7.01 buffer solution for several hours. Then follow the calibration procedure.
• Do not be alarmed if white crystals appear around the cap. This is normal with pH electrodes and they dissolve when rinsed with water.
• Connect the electrode to the meter.
• Turn the Checker® on by pressing ON/OFF button.
• Remove the protective cap and immerse the tip of the electrode in the sample to be tested.
• Stir gently and wait for a stable reading.
NEVER IMMERSE THE ELECTRODE OVER THE MAXIMUM IMMERSION LEVEL. THE CONNECTOR MUST ALWAYS BE CLEAN AND DRY.
• After use, rinse the electrode with water and store it with a few drops of HI70300 storage solution in the protective cap.
• Replace protective cap after each use.
DO NOT USE DISTILLED OR DEIONIZED WATER FOR STORAGE PURPOSES
