3. Detailed Operating Steps

3.1 Power On and Calibration

  1. Long press the power button for 3 seconds to power on, and the screen displays the current mode.
  2. Enter the calibration menu and select the corresponding measurement item (such as pH).
  3. Immerse the sensor in the standard buffer solution, wait for the reading to stabilize, then press the confirm button to complete one-point or two-point calibration.
  4. After calibration, rinse the sensor with pure water and blot dry.

3.2 Sample Measurement

  1. Fully immerse the sensor in the water sample to be tested, avoiding bubble attachment.
  2. Gently stir the sensor to accelerate response, and record after the value stabilizes.
  3. Press the store button to save data, or export via USB connection to a computer.
  4. After measurement, clean the sensor with pure water and store properly.

4. Maintenance and Care Points

  • Regular calibration: It is recommended to calibrate once a week or before each batch of measurement.
  • Sensor cleaning: Use a soft cloth or cotton swab dipped in mild detergent to wipe, avoiding scratching the sensitive membrane.
  • Battery management: When not in use for a long time, charge once every 3 months to prevent battery damage.
  • Storage environment: Temperature -10 ~ 50 °C, humidity ≤85% RH, avoid direct sunlight.
  • Replace consumables: Replace pH electrodes, dissolved oxygen membranes, etc. according to the manual cycle.
