I. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the
Cobra. Please read the manual completely
before first use. Keep the manual for fu-
ture reference. It is recommended to soak
the electrode for at least 30 minutes be-
fore use to make the electrode wet.
Features:
• IP65 Waterproof housing
• Dual display with ATC
• Data hold to freeze readings
• Compact size, easily fits in your pocket
• Low battery indicator
• Auto power off
• °C/°F unit switchable
• Power by 2 CR2032 batteries
• Multi point calibration
• One-touch-only for calibration
II. MATERIAL SUPPLIED
This package contains:
• The meter x 1
• CR2032 button battery x 2
• Manual
III. POWER SUPPLY
The meter is powered by 2 CR2032 bat-
teries. Check the battery:
1. before first use;
2. when the battery symbol appears on
the LCD screen;
3. when the meter can not be switched
on.

button cells CR2032.
4. Make sure the batteries are in place
and the polarity is correct.
5. Put back the battery cover and turn it
in counter-clockwise direction to lock.
NOTE:

changing batteries.
2. Remove the battery from the Cobra if
you do not plan to use it for a month or
more.

reading.
• The 2nd display shows the temp.
• Cal = Calibration mode
• ATC = Auto Temp. Compensation
• H= Data hold

VI. HOW TO OPERATE
1. Remove the probe storage bottle from
meter to expose the electrode. It is nor-
mal to find white crystals on the cap or
electrode assembly.
WARNING: always make sure the bottle
is filled with a storage buffer to keep
the electrode wet and in a good stor-
age condition.

2. Dip the electrode into the test solution.
Press “ ⌽” to switch on the meter and
stir it to get a stable reading.
3. A small dot “ .” flashes while the meter
is in measurement mode. The LCD not
only shows the measured pH value but
also displays the temperature.
4. Press “ HOLD ” to freeze current read-
ings. The “ H” icon will appear on the
LCD and the small dot will not flash.
Press “ HOLD ” again to release the hold
mode.

5. Turn off the meter by pressing “ ⌽”
button.
6. Once you have finished the measure-
ment, clean the electrode, put back the
bottle and store the meter below 50°C.
7. Please see page 9 for the calibration
procedures.
VII. AUTO POWER OFF (SLEEP FUNCTION)
This meter will turn off automatically af-
ter 20 minutes of inactivity. If you want to
operate for a longer time, you can disable
the sleep mode.
To disable the auto power off:
Before turning the power on,
press “ ⌽” + “ HOLD ” keys si-
multaneously until an “n” ap-
peares on the screen. Then
release the keys to return to
normal mode.
Note: This setting (sleep function off) will
be disabled when you switch the power
off.

VIII. AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE COM-
PENSATION (ATC) & TEMP. UNIT SET-
TING
The Cobra is capable of measuring with
Automatic Temperature Compensation.
“ATC” will show in the middle top of the
LCD.
Temp. Unit Setting of the Cobra:
To select the temp. unit (°C or °F), turn
off the meter first. When the meter is off,
press “ ⌽” and “ CAL ” at the same time
until the C or F appears on the LCD. Press
“ HOLD ” to select the preferred unit and
then press “ CAL ” to save. “ SA ” will ap-
pear on the LCD for one second and then
the LCD screen will go back to normal.
IX. CALIBRATION MODE (CAL)
Calibration is necessary and should be
done regularly. It is recommended to cali-
brate every day if the meter is used often.
The unique calibration design of the me-
ter features an automatic buffer recogni-
tion to avoid errors.

The Cobra Calibration:
1. Switch on the meter.
2. Place the electrode into a 7pH buffer
solution (afterwards place the elec-
trode into a 4pH or a 10pH buffer solu-
tion for better accuracy).
3. Press “ CAL ” to enter pH calibration
mode. The icon “ CAL ” will appear on
the LCD screen for one second and then
pH value (4, 7 or 10) will be displayed
on the LCD screen.
4. If the probe or buffer display an error:
• the buffer is incorrectly inserted;
• the probe is damaged
• the probe can not detect the buffer in
below voltage range.
The meter will exit calibration mode
automatically after 10
seconds. “ End ” will ap-
pear on the LCD screen
in one second and then
will go back to normal
status.
Acceptable voltage range of each point:
pH 4.00 : 97mV ... 250mV
pH 7.00 : - 60mV ... 60mV
pH 10.00 : - 250mV ... -97mV
