HI98196 Multiparameter pH/ORP/DO/Pressure/Temperature Waterproof Meter

fisher brand

The HI98196 is a waterproof portable logging multiparameter meter that monitors up to 7 different water quality parameters including 5 measured and 2 calculated. The microprocessor based multi-sensor probe allows for the measurement of key parameters including pH, ORP, dissolved oxygen, and temperature. The probe transmits readings digitally to the meter, where data points can be displayed and logged. The use of digital communication allows for noise free transfer of data for up to 100 meters in cable length. The complete system is simple to setup and easy to use.

Features at-a-glance

Backlit Graphic LCD Display – The HI98196 features a backlit graphic LCD with on-screen help and the capability to display up to nine parameters simultaneously. The graphic display allows for the use of virtual keys to provide for an intuitive user interface.

Waterproof Protection – The meter is enclosed in an IP67 rated waterproof casing and can withstand immersion in water at a depth of 1 m for up to 30 minutes. The probe features an IP68 rating for continuous immersion in water.

Quick Connect Digital Probe – The HI7698196 probe features a Quick Connect DIN connector that makes a waterproof connection with the meter.

Color Coded, Field Replaceable Sensors – Sensor replacement is quick and easy with field replaceable, screw type connectors that are color coded for easy sensor port identification.

Auto-sensor Recognition – The probe and meter automatically recognize the sensors that are connected. Any ports not used on the probe will not have the parameter displayed or be configurable.

Automatic temperature compensation – Integrated temperature sensor allows for automatic temperature compensation of pH measurements.

Automatic Barometric Pressure Compensation – The meter features a built-in barometer with user-selectable units for dissolved oxygen pressure compensation.

Standard or Quick Calibration – Quick Calibration provides a speedy, single point calibration for pH. Standard pH calibration options are available for calibrating up to three points from a selection of five standard buffers and one custom buffer.

GLP Data – HI98196 includes a GLP feature thatallows users to view calibration data and calibration expiration information at the touch of a key. Calibration data includes date, time, buffers/standards used for calibration, and slope characteristics.

Data Logging – The HI98196 allows users to store up to 45,000 continuous or log-on-demand  samples with logging intervals from one second to three hours.

Intuitive Keypad – The fitted rubber keypad has dedicated keys for power, backlight, up/down arrows, help and alphanumeric characters. The meter also features two virtual soft keys that navigate the user through the configuration of each parameter, meter setup, and logging of data. The interface is intuitive for any user’s level of experience.

Dedicated Help Key – Contextual help is always available through a dedicated “HELP” key. Clear tutorial messages and directions are available on-screen to quickly and easily guide users through setup and calibration.  The help information displayed is relative to the setting/option being viewed.

PC Connectivity – Logged data can be transferred to a Window’s compatible PC with the included HI920015 micro USB cable and HI9298194 software.

Long Battery Life – The display of the meter has a battery icon indicator to show the remaining power. The meter uses four 1.5V AA batteries that provide up to 360 hours of battery life.

Rugged thermoformed carrying case – The HI98196 meter, probe, and all accessories are supplied in a rugged carrying case designed to provide years of use. The inside compartment of the carrying case is thermoformed to securely hold and protect all of the components.

HI98193 Waterproof Portable Dissolved Oxygen and BOD Meter

fisher brand

For the measurement of DO, the HI98193 is supplied with the HI764073 polarographic dissolved oxygen probe. This probe uses preformed PTFE membrane caps that are field replaceable. The probe connects to the meter with a unique quick connect waterproof DIN connector allowing for a secure attachment without a threaded connect that is also easy to remove.

The HI98193 portable DO meter has extended ranges of up to 50 ppm and 600% saturation. When measuring dissolved oxygen, compensations for pressure, temperature and salinity are essential for an accurate reading.

Pressure compensation can be done automatically with the meter’s built-in barometer or by manual entry. Calibration of the built-in barometer is done to one point by entering the value of a reference barometer. Pressure is displayed in user-selectable units including mmHg, inHg, atm, psi, kPa, and mbar.

The HI764073 DO probe has a built-in temperature sensor for automatic temperature compensation. The temperature sensor can be calibrated to one or two points. Manual entry of salinity values allows for the salinity compensation of dissolved oxygen readings in saline waters.

Other features include built-in methods and calculations for the measurement of Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), Oxygen Uptake Rate (OUR) and Specific Oxygen Uptake Rate (SOUR).

The HI98193’s log on-demand feature allows users to store up to 400 readings. This data can then be transferred to a PC with the HI920015 USB cable and HI92000 software.

GLP data is accessible by a fixed dedicated key this data includes date, time, pressure, calibrated value, temperature and salinity value of the last calibration.

Access help at any time at the press of a dedicated button and view content specific information based on the screen that is currently being viewed.

The high contrast graphic LCD is easy to read outdoors in bright sunlight to low-lit areas with the backlight. A combination of dedicated and virtual keys allows easy, intuitive operation in a choice of languages.

The compact, durable HI760193 carrying case is thermoformed to hold all necessary components for taking a field measurement, including the meter and electrode, beakers, buffer solutions, cleaning solutions and storage solutions.
