Operating Instructions
Power ON/OFF
Turn the meter on or off by pressing the Power button.
Measurement Modes
The R3530 offers 3 measurement modes:
• Conductivity
• Total Dissolved Solids
• Salinity (Salt)
When the meter is on, press the MODE button to toggle between "COND"
for conductivity measurements, "TDS" for total dissolved solids
measurements & "SALT" for salinity measurements.
Selecting the Temperature Unit of Measure
When the meter is rst powered ON, the default scale setting is set
to Celsius (°C).
Press and hold the MODE button to toggle between °C and °F.
Note: The meter will automatically save the selected unit of measure as
the new default when powered off.
Taking Measurements
Submerge the electrode in the solution to be tested while stirring gently.
Wait for the measurements to stabilize. The applicable measurement value
automatically compensated for temperature is shown at the top of the
LCD Display whereas the secondary value below indicates the
temperature of the sample.
Note: When the applicable measurement value is over the measurement
range, the LCD display will indicate "---".
Note 2: The meter will auto-range to the proper range (μS/cm or mS/cm,
ppm or ppt) and then display the reading.
Data Hold
1. Press the hold button to freeze the current reading on the display.
2. While in this mode "Hold" will appear on the LCD display.
3. Press the hold button again to resume normal operation.

MAX/MIN Function
1. Press and hold the Max/Min button to access the Maximum/
Minimum modes.
2. The MAX and MIN indicators will blink continuously. The Maximum
& Minimum values will automatically update in the Max/Min memory
while the current applicable measurements are displayed.
3. To view the Max/Min measurements during this mode press the
Max/Min button at any time to toggle through stored
measurements.
4. To exit Max/Min mode and resume normal operation, press and hold
the Max/Min button for approx. 3 seconds.
Auto Power Off
To preserve battery life, the meter is programmed to turn off after
approximately 10 minutes of inactivity.
Calibration
Meter accuracy should be performed on a periodic basis. If calibration
is required, a conductivity standard solution is required. The meter can
be calibrated in any of the three ranges. Standard solutions of 84µS/cm,
1413µS/cm (included) or 12.88mS/cm (12,880µS/cm) are used for the
automatic calibration recognition procedure.
Note: Calibration is always done in conductivity mode. Since salinity and
TDS values are calculated from conductivity values, this procedure also
calibrates the salinity and TDS ranges.
1. Fill a sample cup with the conductivity standard solution.
2. Turn the meter ON and insert the electrode into the solution so that
the tip of the electrode is fully immersed and stir at a moderate,
uniform rate. Tap or move the electrode in the sample to dislodge
any air bubbles.
3. Press and hold the CAL button (approximately 2 seconds) until
"CAL" appears in the lower display. The main display will
start ashing.
4. The meter will automatically recognize and calibrate to the
conductivity standard solution.

5. The display will indicate "SA" followed by "End" and resume normal
operation when calibration is complete.
Note: "SA" will not appear if the meter fails calibration.
Battery Replacement
When the low battery icon appears on the LCD, the batteries must
be replaced.
1. Loosen both screws using the included Allen Key from the battery
compartment cap.
2. Remove the battery compartment cap.
3. Replace the four (4) "AAA" batteries.
4. Secure the battery compartment cap back using the two (2) screws.
Electrode Replacement
1. To remove the electrode, unscrew (Counter-Clockwise) and
completely remove the electrode collar.
2. Gently pull the electrode module to disconnect it from the meter rock
the electrode from side to side, pulling it downwards, until it
disconnects from the meter.
3. Carefully plug the replacement electrode into the meter socket,
ensuring proper connection.
4. Tighten the electrode collar back into place.
