3.1 Ibẹrẹ Ayẹwo
Upon receiving your EC850 kit, carefully inspect all components for any signs of damage during transit. Ensure all listed items in "What's in the Box" are present.
3.2 Fifi sori batiri
Locate the battery compartment on the back of the meter. Insert the required batteries (typically AA or AAA, refer to the meter's battery compartment for specific type and polarity) ensuring correct orientation. Close the compartment securely.
3.3 Iwadi Asopọ
Connect the conductivity probe to the meter's input port. Ensure the connection is firm and secure to prevent measurement inaccuracies.
3.4 Iṣatunṣe Ibẹrẹ
For optimal accuracy, perform an initial calibration. The EC850 supports 1- to 3-point automatic calibration. Refer to the included quick start guide for detailed steps on using the provided calibration solutions.
4. Awọn ilana Iṣiṣẹ
4.1 Ipilẹ wiwọn
- Tan mita naa nipa titẹ bọtini agbara.
- Rinse the probe thoroughly with distilled or deionized water before each measurement.
- Fi iwadi naa bọ inu sample solution, ensuring the sensor area is fully submerged.
- Allow the reading to stabilize on the display. The meter will show conductivity/TDS and temperature.
- Record the measurement.
- Rinse the probe again after use.
4.2 Lílóye Àwọn Kíkà Ìfihàn
The EC850 display shows the primary measurement (Conductivity in µS/cm or mS/cm, or TDS in ppm) and the temperature in °C. The meter automatically compensates for temperature variations (ATC) to provide accurate readings.
4.3 Self-Diagnosis
The meter features a self-diagnosis function that can alert you to common issues such as calibration errors or probe problems. Follow the on-screen prompts or consult the troubleshooting section for guidance.
5. Itọju
5.1 Fífọ Ìwádìí náà
Regularly clean the conductivity probe to prevent buildup that can affect accuracy. Rinse the probe with distilled water after each use. For stubborn deposits, refer to the detailed cleaning instructions in the full manual or Apera Instruments' support resources.
5.2 Ibi ipamọ
When not in use, store the probe in its protective cap with a small amount of storage solution (or appropriate calibration solution if storage solution is unavailable). Store the meter and probe in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original carrying case.
5.3 Batiri Rirọpo
Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display. Ensure the meter is turned off before opening the battery compartment. Dispose of old batteries responsibly.
