Product overview
The HQd series portable meters are used with digital IntelliCAL™ probes
to measure various parameters in water. The meter automatically
recognizes the type of probe that is connected to the meter.
Measurement data can be stored and transferred to a printer, PC or USB
storage device.
The HQd series meters are available in 4 models:
• HQ11d—pH/mV/ORP
• HQ14d—conductivity, salinity, total dissolved solids (TDS), resistivity
• HQ30d—all IntelliCAL probes, 1 probe connector
• HQ40d—all IntelliCAL probes, 2 probe connectors
Features common to all models:
• Automatic probe and parameter recognition
• Instrument guided calibration procedures
• Calibration data stored in the probe
4 English
• Probe specific method settings for regulatory compliance and Good
Laboratory Practice (GLP)
• Security Options
• Real-time data logging via USB connection
• USB connectivity to PC/printer/USB storage device/keyboard
• Bi-directional communication with PC-based systems via a virtual
serial port connection
• Sample ID and Operator ID for data traceability
• Adjustable automatic shut-off

CAUTION
Multiple hazards. Only qualified personnel must conduct the tasks
described in this section of the document.

Install the batteries
W A R N I N G
Explosion hazard. Incorrect battery installation can cause the release of explosive
gases. Be sure that the batteries are of the same approved chemical type and
are inserted in the correct orientation. Do not mix new and used batteries.
NOTICE
The battery compartment is not waterproof. If the battery compartment becomes
wet, remove and dry the batteries and dry the interior of the compartment. Check
the battery contacts for corrosion and clean them if necessary.
NOTICE
When using nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries, the battery icon will not
indicate a full charge after freshly charged batteries have been inserted (NiMH
batteries are 1.2 V versus 1.5 V for alkaline batteries). Even though the icon does
not indicate complete charge, 2300 mAH NiMH batteries will achieve 90% of
instrument operation lifetime (before recharge) versus new alkaline batteries.
NOTICE
To avoid potential damage to the meter from battery leakage, remove the meter
batteries prior to extended periods of non-use.
The meter can be powered with AA alkaline or rechargeable NiMH
batteries. To conserve battery life, the meter will power off after
5 minutes of inactivity. This time can be changed in the Display Options
menu.
For battery installation refer to Figure 3.
1. Pull the release tab on the battery cover and the remove the cover.
2. Install 4 AA alkaline or 4 AA nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries.
Make sure that the batteries are installed in the correct polarity.
3. Replace the battery cover.

Connect to AC power
DANGER
Electrocution Hazard. AC power outlets in wet or potentially wet
locations MUST ALWAYS be provided with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupting (GFCI/GFI) circuit breaker. The AC-DC power adapter for
this product is not sealed and must not be used on wet benches or in
wet locations without GFCI protection.

Standard operation
About calibration
Each probe uses a different type of calibration solution. Make sure to
calibrate the probes frequently to maintain the highest level of accuracy.
Note: For step-by-step instructions, refer to the documents that are included with
each probe.
The calibration icon can indicate that:
• the calibration timer has expired
• the LDO sensor cap should be replaced
• the calibration is out of range
• the calibration results are outside acceptance criteria settings
About sample measurements
Each probe has specific preparation steps and procedures for taking
sample measurements. For step-by-step instructions, refer to the
documents that are included with the probe.
About check standards
Run Check Standards verifies equipment accuracy by measuring a
solution of a known value. The meter will indicate if the Check Standard
passed or failed. If the Check Standard fails, the calibration icon is
shown until the probe is calibrated.
The meter can be set to automatically show a reminder for check
standard measurement at a specified interval with a specified
acceptance criteria. The reminder, value of the check standard, and
acceptance criteria can be changed. For step-by-step instructions, refer
to the documents that are included with the probe.
Use a sample ID
The sample ID tag is used to associate measurements with a particular
sample location. If assigned, stored data will include the sample ID.
1. Push the key.
2. Select, create or delete a sample ID:
Option Description
Current ID Select an ID from a list. The current ID will be
associated with sample data until a different ID is
