5. Каліброўка
The VTSYIQI VD-90P Water Activity Tester is factory-calibrated for immediate use. Regular recalibration is recommended approximately every 5 months to ensure continued accuracy. For calibration, you will need pure Sodium Chloride (NaCl) and Magnesium Chloride (MgCl2) solutions, which can be purchased locally as liquid powders are restricted for air transport.
- Access Calibration Menu: From the main menu, select "Calibration" and confirm.
- Select Calibration Standard: The display will show options for calibration standards (e.g., NaCl, MgCl2). Select the appropriate standard you are using.
- Prepare Calibration Sampль: Place the chosen calibration solution into a clean sampле страва.
- Insert Calibration Sampль: Змесціце сample dish into the sensor chamber and close the lid.
- Пачаць каліброўку: Follow the on-screen prompts to initiate the calibration process. The device will measure the standard and adjust its readings accordingly.
- Пацверджанне каліброўкі: Once calibration is complete, the device will indicate success. Repeat the process for other calibration standards if necessary.
6. Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне
- Ачыстка датчыка: Regularly clean the WSC-4 sensor and sample chamber with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the sensor.
- захоўванне: Store the VD-90P unit in a clean, dry, and temperature-stable environment when not in use. Keep it away from dust and corrosive substances.
- Абслугоўванне прынтара: Ensure the mini printer has sufficient paper. Replace paper rolls as needed, following the printer's specific instructions.
