4. การตั้งค่า
- แกะส่วนประกอบ: นำส่วนประกอบทั้งหมดออกจากบรรจุภัณฑ์อย่างระมัดระวัง
- Assemble Electrode Holder: Attach the electrode holder to the meter unit according to the provided diagram in the quick start guide (if applicable).
- Connect Electrode: Connect the 201T-F combination pH electrode to the designated BNC connector on the back of the PH700 meter. Ensure a secure connection.
- เชื่อมต่อพลังงาน: Plug the power adapter into the meter's power input and then into a standard electrical outlet.
- Initial Electrode Preparation: Before first use, remove the protective cap from the electrode. Rinse the electrode thoroughly with distilled water. If the electrode has been stored dry, soak it in 3M KCL storage solution for at least 30 minutes to rehydrate the glass membrane.
5. คู่มือการใช้งาน
5.1. การสอบเทียบ
The PH700 meter features advanced auto-calibration with a self-diagnosis function. Regular calibration is crucial for accurate measurements.
- Prepare Buffer Solutions: Pour small amounts of pH 4.00, pH 7.00, and pH 10.01 buffer solutions into separate, clean beakers. Ensure the solutions are at room temperature.
- Rinse Electrode: Rinse the electrode with distilled water and gently blot dry with a lint-free tissue.
- เริ่มการสอบเทียบ: Turn on the meter. Follow the on-screen prompts or refer to the meter's specific button functions to enter calibration mode.
- Calibrate with pH 7.00: Immerse the electrode into the pH 7.00 buffer solution. Stir gently and wait for the reading to stabilize. The meter will automatically recognize the buffer and complete the calibration point.
- Calibrate with pH 4.00 or pH 10.01: Rinse the electrode with distilled water. Immerse it into either the pH 4.00 or pH 10.01 buffer solution (depending on your expected sample range). The meter will guide you through the process. For optimal accuracy, perform a 3-point calibration (4.00, 7.00, 10.01).
- Exit Calibration: Once all desired points are calibrated, exit calibration mode. The meter is now ready for measurement.

5.2. การวัด
- เตรียมสampเลอ: เทเอสของคุณample solution into a clean beaker.
- Rinse Electrode: ล้างอิเล็กโทรดด้วยน้ำกลั่นแล้วซับให้แห้งเบาๆ
- Immerse Electrode: จุ่มอิเล็กโทรดลงในสารละลายampวิธีแก้ปัญหาดังกล่าว คือการตรวจสอบให้แน่ใจว่าหลอดตรวจจับและจุดเชื่อมต่ออ้างอิงจมอยู่ในน้ำอย่างสมบูรณ์
- Stir and Stabilize: Gently stir the solution to ensure homogeneity and wait for the reading on the meter to stabilize. The PH700's advanced digital processing technology helps generate quick and stable readings.
- การอ่านบันทึก: Once stable, record the pH and temperature readings displayed on the meter.
- ทำความสะอาดหลังการใช้งาน: After each measurement, rinse the electrode thoroughly with distilled water.
6. การบำรุงรักษา
6.1. การดูแลรักษาและการจัดเก็บอิเล็กโทรด
- การเก็บข้อมูลรายวัน: For short-term storage (up to a week), keep the electrode cap filled with 3M KCL storage solution. Ensure the electrode bulb is immersed.
- การจัดเก็บระยะยาว: For longer periods, ensure the electrode cap is securely filled with 3M KCL storage solution. Store the electrode upright. Never store the electrode in distilled water, as this will deplete the reference electrolyte and damage the electrode.
- การทำความสะอาด: If the electrode becomes dirty or readings are sluggish, clean it by soaking in a mild cleaning solution (e.g., Apera Instruments electrode cleaning solution) for 15-30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with distilled water and re-calibrate.

6.2. Buffer Solution Storage
- Keep buffer solutions in their original, double-sealed bottles when not in use.
- Store solutions in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Do not return used buffer solution to the original bottle to prevent contamination.
- Note the 2-year expiration from manufacture for an unopened bottle. Discard expired solutions.
6.3. การทำความสะอาดมิเตอร์
- Wipe the meter's exterior with a clean, damp ผ้า ห้ามใช้สารทำความสะอาดที่มีฤทธิ์กัดกร่อนหรือตัวทำละลาย
- Ensure no liquid enters the meter's connectors or internal components.
