3.1. බැටරි ස්ථාපනය

The PH90 meter requires two CR2032 Lithium Metal batteries (included). To install or replace batteries:

1. Unscrew the battery compartment cap located at the top of the meter.
2. Insert the two CR2032 batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
3. බැටරි මැදිරි පියන ආරක්ෂිතව නැවත ස්ථානයට ඉස්කුරුප්පු කරන්න.

3.2. Electrode Preparation

Before first use, and after storage, prepare the electrode:

1. Remove the protective cap from the electrode tip. The cap contains a moist sponge to keep the electrode hydrated.
2. Rinse the electrode tip thoroughly with distilled or deionized water. Do not wipe the electrode, as this can create static charges.
3. Allow any excess water to drip off.

3.3 මූලික ක්රමාංකනය

For optimal accuracy, perform a 3-point calibration before initial use and periodically thereafter. Calibration buffers (pH 4, 7, and 10) are sold separately.

1. Turn on the meter by pressing the සක්රිය / අක්රිය බොත්තම.
2. Immerse the electrode into a pH 7.00 buffer solution.
3. ඔබා අල්ලාගෙන සිටින්න CAL button until "CAL" appears on the display. The meter will automatically recognize the buffer and calibrate.
4. ආස්රැත ජලය සමග ඉලෙක්ට්රෝඩය සේදීම.
5. Repeat the process with pH 4.00 and pH 10.00 buffer solutions. The meter will automatically detect and calibrate to these points.
6. Once calibration is complete, the meter will return to measurement mode.

4. මෙහෙයුම් උපදෙස්

4.1. මිනුම් ගැනීම

1. Ensure the meter is calibrated.
2. Rinse the electrode with distilled water and gently shake off excess.
3. Immerse the electrode tip into the sample solution, ensuring the sensor is fully submerged.
4. Gently stir the solution to ensure homogeneity and allow the reading to stabilize. This may take up to a minute, especially if the sample temperature differs significantly from the meter's previous environment.
5. Read the pH value displayed on the LCD screen. The temperature will also be displayed.
6. After measurement, rinse the electrode thoroughly with distilled water.

4.2. රඳවා ගැනීමේ කාර්යය

To freeze the current reading on the display, press the අල්ලා ගන්න button (if available, typically integrated with MODE or a separate button). Press it again to release the hold and return to live measurement.

4.3. Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)

The Extech PH90 features Automatic Temperature Compensation, which adjusts pH readings based on the sample's temperature, ensuring accuracy across varying temperatures. The temperature is displayed alongside the pH value.

5. නඩත්තු කිරීම

5.1. Electrode Care and Storage

Proper electrode care is crucial for maintaining accuracy and extending the life of your meter:

• Always keep the electrode tip moist. Store the meter with the protective cap filled with electrode storage solution or pH 7 buffer solution. Never store in distilled or deionized water, as this can deplete the electrode's electrolyte.
• Rinse the electrode thoroughly with distilled water after each use.
• If the electrode becomes dirty or readings are sluggish, clean it using a mild electrode cleaning solution. Follow the cleaning solution manufacturer's instructions.

5.2. ඉලෙක්ට්රෝඩ ප්රතිස්ථාපනය

The PH90 features a replaceable electrode. If the electrode performance degrades significantly despite proper cleaning and calibration, it may need replacement. Refer to the Extech website or contact customer support for information on purchasing replacement electrodes (Part PH95).

5.3. බැටරි ප්රතිස්ථාපනය

When the battery indicator appears on the display or the meter fails to power on, replace the two CR2032 Lithium Metal batteries as described in Section 3.1.
