Aufstellen
- Einlegen der Batterie:
Locate the battery compartment cover, typically on the rear or top of the device. Open the cover and insert the required batteries. Ensure correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.
- Sensor Attachment:
The meter uses interchangeable flat surface sensors. Carefully align the sensor with the connector port at the bottom of the meter and twist or push until it is firmly seated. Avoid excessive force.
- Erste Vorbereitung:
Before first use, or after prolonged storage, condition the sensor according to the specific sensor's instructions (e.g., soaking in a conditioning solution or distilled water for a specified period). This ensures accurate readings.
Bedienungsanleitung
- Ein-/Ausschalten:
Drücken Sie die EIN/AUS button to power on the meter. The display will illuminate and show a brief self-test. To power off, press and hold the EIN/AUS gedrückt, bis sich das Display ausschaltet.
- Modusauswahl:
Drücken Sie die MODUS button to cycle through available measurement parameters (e.g., Total Chlorine, ORP). The selected mode will be indicated on the display.
- Kalibrierung:
For accurate measurements, regular calibration is essential. Press the CAL button to enter calibration mode. Follow the on-screen prompts to calibrate using appropriate calibration solutions for the selected parameter. The meter features automatic self-calibration.
- Messungen durchführen:
Immerse the sensor tip into the sample solution, ensuring the flat surface is fully submerged. Gently stir the meter in the solution to remove air bubbles. Allow the reading to stabilize on the display before recording the measurement.
- Ablesen der Anzeige:
The digital display shows the primary measurement (e.g., chlorine concentration in ppm or ORP in mV) and often includes a secondary reading such as temperature.
Wartung
- Sensorreinigung:
After each use, rinse the sensor thoroughly with distilled or deionized water to prevent sample residue buildup. For stubborn deposits, refer to the sensor-specific cleaning instructions, which may involve mild detergents or specialized cleaning solutions.
- Sensor Storage:
When not in use, store the sensor in its protective cap, ideally with a small amount of appropriate storage solution. Do not allow the sensor to dry out completely.
- Batteriewechsel:
Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display or when the meter fails to power on. Always use fresh batteries of the specified type.
- Allgemeine Pflege:
Keep the meter clean and dry. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or corrosive chemicals. Do not drop or subject the meter to severe impact.
