1. PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION

Remove the tester and accessories from packaging and examine them carefully. For further assistance, please contact your local Hanna Instruments office or email us at tech@hannainst.com. Each HI9810382 is supplied with a starter kit consisting of:

• pH 4.01 buffer solution, 20 mL sachet (2 pcs.)
• pH 7.01 buffer solution, 20 mL sachet (2 pcs.)
• Electrode cleaning and disinfection solution for bread and dough deposits, 20 mL sachet (2 pcs.)
• Electrode storage solution, 13 mL dropper bottle (1 pc.)
• 3V Lithium battery – CR2032
• Instrument quality certificate and Instruction manual

Note: Save all packing material until you are sure that the tester works correctly. Any damaged or defective item must be returned in its original packing material with the supplied accessories.

2. SPECIFICATIONS

• Available with Hanna Lab App
  ** Measuring outside the recommended operating temperature range may damage the gel electrolyte and void product warranty.

Note: The tester can display measurements from –2.00 to 16.00 pH. Measurements outside of the pH range will flash. In this case assess the integrity of the tester and the type of measured sample.

3. GENERAL DESCRIPTION & INTENDED USE

HI9810382 is a professional wireless pH tester, part of Hanna Instruments HALO2 family.

• The integrated Bluetooth module allows the tester to be connected to a compatible smart device with the Hanna Lab App.
• The tester has a compact, waterproof casing, and automatic pH calibration at up to three points, or four points when used with the Hanna Lab App.
• Automatically compensated temperature readings are displayed on a large LCD.
• Accurate and easy to use, the tester is ideal to measure the pH during baking processes and it meets the food-hygiene and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) regulations.

Operating Modes
The HI9810382 can be used as a stand‑alone pH tester or connected to the Hanna Lab App.
The Hanna Lab App turns a compatible smart device into a full-featured pH meter. Features include: electrode condition, GLP with time-stamp, live- readings, mV resolution, manual temperature compensation, stability criteria, calibration reminder, pH (mV) and temperature alarms, tester ID, and data sharing.

Probe Features
The food grade PVDF body material is easy to clean and disinfect. Resistant to most chemicals (e.g. solvents, sodium hypochlorite), ultraviolet light, and fungal growth, the PVDF body also has high‑abrasion resistance and mechanical strength.
The conical tip allows for easy penetration into solids and semisolids.
The double junction design presents a silver-free electrolyte solution interacting with the sample, making the electrode less susceptible to clogging and guaranteeing a fast response and stable reading.

Built-in temperature sensor at the tip of the pH electrode allows rapid determination of the sample temperature and a high‑accuracy temperature reading.

5. GENERAL OPERATIONS

Turning the Tester On & Off

• Place the tester face down on a clean, dry surface. Rotate the battery cover on the back of the tester counterclockwise and set it aside. Remove the battery insulation film.
• Press the ON/OFF button to turn the tester on or off. Initialization screen displays all LCD segments, followed by the battery percentage. The tester enters measurement mode. Before the tester turns off, “OFF PWR” is displayed briefly.
• Press and hold the ON/OFF button to turn the tester off when connected to Bluetooth.

6. SETUP

The Setup button is located inside the battery compartment. After Setup configuration, replace the cover.

8. HANNA LAB APPLICATION

• The Hanna Lab App is available on the App Store® and on Google Play.1
• Consult the Help section of the application for information on calibration, measurement, data logging, and sharing.
• When the tester is in discoverable mode, it will appear in the list of “Available Devices”.
• Within the application, tap “Connect” to pair the tester with the device. All readings are transmitted directly to the application.

9. CALIBRATION

Preparation & Guidelines

1. Remove the probe from the plastic storage cap. Save the cap for probe storage.
2. Rinse off any storage solution or salts that may be on the body.
3. Verify there is solution inside the pH bulb by shaking the probe down to restore continuity as the solution may have moved up the stem during shipping.
4. For best results, use a rinse beaker and a separate calibration beaker for each buffer. Discard rinsing buffers after use.

10. CARE & MAINTENANCE

• Never immerse the tester over the maximum immersion level.
• Fresh buffers should be used for each calibration. Once the sachets are opened the buffer value can change over time.
• If the electrode is slow or sluggish, soak it in cleaning solution for 20 minutes. Rinse with water and hydrate the electrode in storage solution for a minimum of 30 minutes before calibrating.
• If measurements are taken successively, rinse the probe thoroughly in distilled or deionized water to eliminate cross‑contamination between measurements.

Storage
To ensure a quick response, the glass tip and junction should be kept hydrated.
When not in use, add a few drops of storage solution to the storage cap. If storage solution is not available, pH 4.01 or pH 7.01 buffer can be used.

Note: Do not store the electrode in distilled or deionized water.
