Research Grade pH Meters
Model HI4221, HI4222, HI4521 and HI4522


HANNA’s new family of research grade laboratory benchtop instruments feature a 240 x 320 dot-matrix color display with on-screen help, simultaneous graphing, language selection and custom configuration. HANNA’s research grade pH meters feature a 5 point calibration with a choice of custom or standard buffers and provide the user with the exclusive Calibration Check™ diagnostic system. ISE models allow direct calibration and measurement with a choice of units as well as incremental methods. Our new HI 4522 pH/ISE/EC and HI 4521 pH/EC meters also feature resistivity, TDS and salinity measuring scales. EC has an extended range from 0.001 μS/cm to 1 mS/cm with auto recognition of the probe type used. Salinity measurements can be displayed in practical salinity, percent salinity and natural sea water. Models that incorporate conductivity measurement (including HI 4321 in our conductivity section) feature United States Pharmacopia (USP <645>) modes for stage 1, 2 or 3 validation. Temperature compensation can be either linear or natural water. All models are equipped with USB and RS232 ports for PC connectivity and offer logging, graphing and GLP capabilities.

pH Calibration Check™
Proper calibration of both the pH meter and pH electrode system is critical in order to achieve reliable results. HANNA’s exclusive Calibration Check™ system includes several features to help users reach that goal.
  • Each time a pH calibration is performed, the instrument compares the new calibration with the previous one. When this comparison indicates a significant difference, the message alerts the user to either clean the electrode, check the buffer or both.
  • When measurements are taken too far from the calibration points, the instrument will warn the user with a message on the LCD.
  • The condition of the pH electrode after calibration is shown on the display to track functionality.
  • To avoid taking readings with old calibrations, the instrument can be set to automatically remind the user at defined intervals when the instrument needs to be recalibrated.
  • For reporting purposes, GLP information is available at a push of a button.

ISE Incremental Methods
Ion concentration determinations with ISE’s can be made faster and easier using the streamlined Incremental Methods. Incremental methods involve adding a standard to a sample, or sample to a standard. A mV change occurs due to this addition. Historically the user would then use mathematical equations to determine the ion concentration of the sample; but with the HI 4522 and HI 4222, sample concentrations are calculated automatically and then logged into an ISE method report. 200 reports can be saved for future recall. The entire process can be repeated on multiple samples without having to reenter the parameters used to calculate the unknown sample concentration. Incremental Method techniques can reduce errors from variables such as temperature, viscosity, pH or ionic strength. The electrodes remain immersed throughout the process thus reducing measurement time as well as eliminating sample carry over and its associated errors. Known Addition, Known Subtraction, Analyte Addition, and Analyte Subtraction methods are the standard method choices provided.

EC USP Mode
HANNA’s HI 4522 and HI 4521 can be used to perform all 3 stages of United States Pharmacopeia testing requirements for water quality (USP <645>). The instruments give clear instructions on how to perform each stage and automatically check that the temperature, conductivity and stability are within USP limits. Comprehensive results are shown once the samples have passed any one of the three stages. These results are displayed on a single screen at the end of the test. Up to 200 reports can be saved for future recall.
