UNPACKING

Remove the Packing List and verify that you have received all equipment. If you have any questions about the shipment, please call the Newport Customer Service Department at 714-540-4914.

When you receive the shipment, inspect the container and equipment for any signs of damage. Note any evidence of rough handling in transit. Immediately report any damage to the shipping agent.

NOTE: The carrier will not honor any claims unless all shipping material is saved for their examination. After examining and removing contents, save packing material and carton in the event reshipment is necessary.

Make sure the packing box contains the following:
1 soft carrying case
1 9V alkaline battery
1 wire brush
1 bottle of buffer solution (pH 7.00)
1 Operator’s Manual

The carrying case contains the following:
1 small screwdriver
1 package of detergent powder (may be labeled “ALCONOX”)
1 DSPH-1 or TDS-4 Meter.

DESCRIPTION
The NEWPORT^® DSPH-1 and TDS-4 meters feature both pH and conductivity measurements in one handheld instrument. The DSPH-1 measures pH from 0 to 14 and conductivity from 0 to 19,999 µmhos. The TDS-4 extends the conductivity capability to 199,999 µmhos. While in use, the electrodes fold out and lock into a 90° or 180° position. When testing is completed, the electrodes fold back into the instrument case. Recessed switches control all functions and an easy-access panel reveals adjustments for pH calibration and slope, and zero and span for conductivity.
