This product conforms to the RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and the EMC Directive 2014/30/EU.
Thank you for choosing OHAUS waterproof pen meters. Please read the manual completely
before use. This manual serves the following models:
• ST20M-B (pen pH and Conductivity meter)
• ST20M-C (pen pH and Conductivity meter)
pH: Condition the pH electrode by immersing it in pH electrode storage solution (3M KCl
solution) for 1 hour before using. If the pH electrode protective cap is dry (may cause white
crystals), add storage solution in the cap and soak the pH electrode for 1 hour.
Conductivity: Rinse the conductivity electrode with pure water (distilled water) before using.
pH: ST20M has a 0.01 pH resolution and 0.05 pH accuracy and is factory calibrated.
You may need to calibrate the ST20M regularly to ensure the pH accuracy.
Conductivity: ST20M pen meter is factory calibrated, and requires calibration every week for
both pH and conductivity.
