The Oakton ATC Probe features a corrosion-resistant stainless steel 30 K thermistor, which is crucial for accurate temperature detection. The thermistor is encased within a durable polymer handle, designed for longevity and ease of handling. The probe is equipped with a 3.3 ft (1-meter) cable for convenient connection to your meter.

Caratteristiche principali:

• Automatic Temperature Compensation for precise measurements.
• Corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction for durability.
• Durable polymer handle for comfortable use.
• Wide operating temperature range of 0 to 100°C.

3. Compatibilità

This ATC probe is designed for use with a variety of Oakton pH and Ion meters. Ensure your meter is listed below for proper functionality:

• Oakton pH Meters: pH 5, pH 6, pH 11, pH 110, pH 510, pH 1100, pH 2100
• Oakton Ion Meters: Ion 6, Ion 510

4. Impostazione

1. Disimballaggio: Carefully remove the ATC probe from its packaging. Inspect the probe and cable for any visible damage.
2. Connessione: Locate the dedicated ATC input port on your compatible Oakton pH or Ion meter. Gently insert the probe's connector into this port. Ensure the connection is firm and secure to prevent intermittent readings.
3. Posizionamento: For accurate temperature compensation, the metal tip of the ATC probe must be immersed in the sample solution alongside the pH or ion electrode. Both probes should be in close proximity within the sample to ensure they are measuring the same temperature.

5. Funzionamento

1. Accensione: Turn on your Oakton pH or Ion meter after connecting the ATC probe.
2. Immersione: Place both the ATC probe and the primary measuring electrode (pH or ion) into the sample solution. Ensure that the sensing elements of both probes are fully immersed and stable within the solution.
3. Misurazione: The meter will automatically detect the temperature from the ATC probe and apply the necessary compensation to the pH or ion reading. Proceed with your standard measurement procedure as outlined in your specific meter's instruction manual. The probe is designed to operate within a temperature range of 0 to 100°C.

6. Manutenzione

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your ATC probe.

• Pulizia: After each use, rinse the metal tip of the probe thoroughly with distilled or deionized water to remove any sample residue. Wipe the probe handle and cable with a soft, damp stoffa. Evitare l'uso di detergenti o solventi abrasivi.
• Magazzinaggio: Store the probe in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Do not bend or crimp the cable excessively, as this can damage internal wiring.
• Ispezione: Periodically inspect the probe for any signs of physical damage, such as cracks in the handle, frayed cable insulation, or corrosion on the metal tip. If damage is observed, discontinue use and consider replacing the probe.

7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If you encounter issues with your ATC probe, consider the following:

• Letture della temperatura imprecise:
  • Ensure the probe tip is fully immersed in the sampla soluzione.
  • Verify that the probe is securely connected to the meter's ATC input.
  • Check for any visible damage to the probe or cable that might affect its function.
  • Ensure the probe is used within its specified temperature range (0 to 100°C).
• No Temperature Reading Displayed:
  • Confirm the probe is correctly and firmly plugged into the ATC input port.
  • Consult your meter's manual to ensure ATC functionality is enabled or properly configured.
  • If the issue persists after checking connections and meter settings, the probe or meter may require servicing or replacement.
