4.2. Luarea unei măsurători

1. Ensure the pH2Go is clean and calibrated (refer to Section 5 for calibration instructions).
2. Remove the protection cap from the sensor.
3. Using a pipette, carefully apply approximately 0.5 mL of your sample into the sensor well. Ensure the sensor is fully immersed.
4. Initiate the measurement via the connected Meister App. The app will display the reading and guide you through the process.
5. Wait for the reading to stabilize. The app will indicate when the measurement is complete and stable.
6. Record or save the data using the app's features.
7. After measurement, clean the sensor immediately (refer to Section 6).

The pH2Go is designed for versatile use across various sample types, including beverages, fermented foods, hydroponic solutions, water samples, dairy products, and industrial liquids.

5. Calibrare

Regular calibration is crucial for maintaining the accuracy of your pH2Go meter. The device features app-guided, step-by-step calibration with Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC).

1. Ensure you have fresh, appropriate pH buffer solutions (e.g., pH 4, pH 7, pH 10). A pH 7 buffer is included in the box.
2. Open the Meister App and navigate to the calibration section.
3. The app will guide you through a multi-point calibration process. Typically, a two-point or three-point calibration is recommended for optimal accuracy.
4. Clean the sensor thoroughly before each buffer application (refer to Section 6).
5. Apply the first buffer solution (e.g., pH 7) to the sensor well as instructed by the app. Wait for the reading to stabilize.
6. Rinse the sensor with distilled water and blot dry before applying the next buffer.
7. Repeat the process for subsequent buffer solutions (e.g., pH 4 and/or pH 10) as guided by the app.
8. The app will confirm successful calibration.

The pH2Go supports up to 5-point calibration for enhanced precision.

6. Întreținere

The pH2Go's glass-free ISFET sensor and gel reference electrolyte are designed for low maintenance. Routine cleaning and proper storage are key to prolonging the life and accuracy of your device.

6.1. Cleaning the Sensor

Clean the sensor immediately after each measurement and before calibration.

1. Rinse the sensor well thoroughly with distilled or deionized water.
2. Gently wipe the sensor surface with a soft, lint-free cloth or tissue. Avoid abrasive materials.
3. For stubborn residues, a mild detergent solution followed by a thorough rinse with distilled water may be used. Consult the safety guide for specific cleaning agent recommendations.
