5.1. Kalibrlash

The EC820 meter features 1 to 4 points auto-calibration. Regular calibration ensures accurate measurements.

  1. Prepare Solutions: Use the provided 84 µS/cm, 1413 µS/cm, and 12.88 mS/cm calibration solutions. Ensure solutions are at room temperature.
  2. Rinse Electrode: Rinse the conductivity electrode thoroughly with distilled or deionized water before and after each measurement or calibration. Gently blot dry with a lint-free tissue.
  3. Kalibrlash rejimiga kiring: With the meter on, press the KAL button. The display will show "CAL" and prompt for the first calibration point.
  4. First Point Calibration: Immerse the electrode into the 1413 µS/cm standard solution. Wait for the reading to stabilize (indicated by a stable icon on the display). The meter will automatically recognize the solution. Press KIRISH tasdiqlash uchun.
  5. Subsequent Points (Optional): For higher accuracy, proceed with 84 µS/cm and 12.88 mS/cm solutions following the same procedure. The meter will guide you through the process.
  6. Exit Calibration: After completing desired calibration points, press the MEAS button to return to measurement mode.

Eslatma: The meter has a self-diagnosis function to help identify and fix common calibration problems. Refer to the on-screen prompts.

5.2. O‘lchash

  1. Rinse Electrode: Elektrodni distillangan suv bilan yuving.
  2. Immerse Electrode: Immerse the electrode into the sample solution, ensuring the sensor is fully submerged.
  3. Wait for Stability: Allow the reading to stabilize. The stable reading icon will appear on the LCD.
  4. Record Reading: Read the Conductivity (EC), TDS, Salinity, or Resistivity value displayed on the large LCD. Temperature will also be displayed simultaneously.
  5. Birliklarni o'zgartirish: ni bosing BIRLIK button to cycle through different measurement units (e.g., µS/cm, mS/cm, ppm, ppt).
  6. Ma'lumotlarni saqlash: The meter supports GLP data management with 500 groups of data storage. Use the M+ / R-M buttons to store and recall data.
