Manual Arahan Meter pH Bar-T Genggam Testo 205

Model: 0563 2051

1. Pengenalan

The Testo 205 is a robust handheld pH and temperature measuring instrument designed for use in semi-solid media. It is particularly suitable for applications in food production, such as monitoring the quality and maturation of meat in butcher shops, slaughterhouses, and the meat-processing industry. This manual provides essential information for the proper setup, operation, and maintenance of your Testo 205 device.

2. Ciri-ciri Utama

  • Simultaneous measurement of pH value and temperature in semi-solid media.
  • Integrated temperature sensor for automatic temperature compensation, ensuring accurate pH readings.
  • Maintenance-free pH probe with gel electrolyte, designed to be leak-proof and resistant to dirt.
  • Hole diaphragm on the pH probe for quick and reliable measurements.
  • User-replaceable combined pH measuring tip and temperature probe.
  • Two-line, illuminated LCD display showing both pH and temperature readings.
  • Automatic final value recognition (auto-hold function) with an audible advisory tone when readings stabilize.
  • Storage cap filled with gel electrolyte to maintain probe hydration and extend its lifespan.
  • Includes a belt/wall bracket for secure storage.
  • Supports one, two, or three-point calibration.

3. Persediaan dan Penggunaan Awal

3.1. Pemasangan Bateri

The Testo 205 uses 4 x LR44 button cell batteries. To install or replace batteries:

  1. Cari penutup petak bateri di bahagian belakang peranti.
  2. Open the cover using a suitable tool (e.g., a small screwdriver or coin).
  3. Insert the 4 LR44 button cell batteries, ensuring correct polarity.
  4. Tutup penutup petak bateri dengan selamat.

3.2. Preparing the pH Probe

Before first use, or after prolonged storage, ensure the pH probe is properly conditioned.

  1. Remove the storage cap from the pH probe. The cap contains gel electrolyte to keep the probe hydrated.
  2. Rinse the probe tip with distilled water.
  3. Proceed with calibration as described in Section 4.1.

4. Arahan Operasi

4.1. Penentukuran

Regular calibration is crucial for accurate pH measurements. The Testo 205 supports one, two, or three-point calibration using buffer solutions.

  1. Tekan ke ON/TAHAN butang untuk menghidupkan peranti.
  2. Tekan ke CAL button to enter calibration mode.
  3. Immerse the pH probe into the first calibration buffer solution (e.g., pH 7.00). Ensure the probe tip is fully submerged.
  4. The device will automatically detect the buffer and begin calibration. Wait for the reading to stabilize and the device to confirm calibration (e.g., by displaying "CAL OK" or a stable value).
  5. Bilas kuar dengan air suling.
  6. For two or three-point calibration, repeat steps 3-5 with additional buffer solutions (e.g., pH 4.01 and pH 10.01).
  7. Exit calibration mode by pressing the CAL button again or waiting for automatic exit.

Nota: For economical use of calibration solution, Testo offers calibration dosing bottles with integrated dosing apertures.

4.2. Mengambil Pengukuran

To measure pH and temperature in semi-solid media:

  1. Ensure the device is calibrated and the probe is clean.
  2. Tekan ke ON/TAHAN butang untuk menghidupkan peranti.
  3. Carefully insert the pH probe into the semi-solid medium (e.g., meat). Ensure good contact and sufficient depth for accurate readings.
  4. The illuminated display will show both the pH value and temperature simultaneously.
  5. The automatic final value recognition (auto-hold) will capture the reading once it stabilizes. An advisory tone will sound to indicate stability.
  6. To manually hold a reading, press the ON/TAHAN button during measurement. Press again to release.
  7. After measurement, rinse the probe thoroughly with distilled water.

4.3. Butang Mod

The MODE button allows you to switch between different display modes or access additional functions, if available. Refer to the on-screen prompts for specific options.

5. Penyelenggaraan

5.1. Probe Cleaning and Storage

Proper cleaning and storage are essential for maintaining the accuracy and lifespan of the pH probe.

  • Selepas setiap penggunaan: Rinse the pH probe thoroughly with distilled water to remove any residue from the measured medium.
  • Untuk penyimpanan: Always place the storage cap, filled with gel electrolyte, back onto the pH probe. This prevents the probe from drying out and ensures its readiness for future measurements.
  • Pembersihan mendalam: If the probe becomes heavily soiled, consult specialized cleaning solutions for pH electrodes. Avoid abrasive materials.

5.2. Replacing the pH Probe

The combined pH measuring tip with temperature probe is user-replaceable. If the probe's performance degrades significantly despite proper cleaning and calibration, it may need replacement.

  1. Gently twist and pull the old probe assembly from the main unit.
  2. Align the new probe assembly with the connector on the main unit.
  3. Push and twist gently until the new probe is securely attached.
  4. After replacing the probe, perform a full calibration as described in Section 4.1.

5.3. Penggantian Bateri

When the battery indicator appears on the display, replace the batteries as described in Section 3.1.

6. Penyelesaian masalah

Masalah Kemungkinan Punca Penyelesaian
Inaccurate pH readings Probe not calibrated; dirty probe; dried-out probe; expired buffer solutions; damaged probe. Perform calibration (Section 4.1); clean probe (Section 5.1); rehydrate probe in storage solution; use fresh buffer solutions; replace probe (Section 5.2).
Masa tindak balas yang perlahan Dirty probe; dried-out probe; low battery. Clean probe (Section 5.1); rehydrate probe; replace batteries (Section 3.1).
Peranti tidak dihidupkan Bateri mati; pemasangan bateri yang salah. Replace batteries (Section 3.1); check battery polarity.
Display shows "Err" or similar error message Probe issue; internal fault. Check probe connection; try cleaning/recalibrating; if problem persists, contact Testo support.
