1. Увод
Welcome to the instruction manual for your Atago Master-500 Refractometer. This precision instrument is designed for accurate measurement of Brix values in a wide range of liquids. It features a full measurement range from 0 to 90% Brix, a robust heat-resistant design suitable for high-temperature samples, and IP65 water resistance for enhanced durability and easy cleaning.
2. Безбедносне информације
- Handle the refractometer with care to prevent damage to the optical components.
- Do not immerse the device in water beyond its IP65 rating. IP65 protects against low-pressure water jets, not full immersion.
- Држите уређај ван домашаја деце.
- Avoid exposing the refractometer to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
- Use only non-abrasive materials for cleaning the prism and daylight plate.

5. Подешавање
- Raspakujte: Carefully remove the refractometer from its packaging and inspect it for any signs of damage.
- Clean Prism: Ensure the prism surface and daylight plate are clean and dry before first use. Use a soft, lint-free cloth.
- Калибрација (опционо): For initial verification or if accuracy is in doubt, calibrate the device. For 0% Brix, place a few drops of distilled water on the prism, close the daylight plate, and check the reading. Adjust if necessary according to specific calibration instructions for your model (refer to detailed instructions if a calibration screw is present).
6. Упутство за употребу
- Припремите Сampле: Ensure your liquid sample is well-mixed and free of air bubbles.
- Примени Сampле: Open the daylight plate. Place 2-3 drops of the sample liquid onto the main prism surface. Ensure the prism is fully covered.
- Close Plate: Gently close the daylight plate. This will spread the sample evenly across the prism.
- View Читање: Hold the refractometer towards a natural light source or a bright lamp. Look through the eyepiece.
- Фокус: If the scale is blurry, rotate the eyepiece to bring the scale into sharp focus.
- Прочитај вредност: The Brix value is indicated by the boundary line between the upper blue field and the lower clear field. Read the value where this line intersects the scale.
- Очистите након употребе: Immediately after each measurement, open the daylight plate and clean the prism and daylight plate thoroughly with a soft, damp тканина. Потпуно осушите.
7. Одржавање
- Чишћење: Always clean the prism and daylight plate immediately after use to prevent sample residue from drying and affecting future readings. Use a soft, lint-free cloth moistened with water.
- Складиштење: Store the refractometer in its protective case in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Избегавајте утицај: Do not drop the device or subject it to strong impacts, as this can damage the internal optics.
- No Solvents: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals on any part of the refractometer.
- инспекција: Повремено прегледајте уређај да ли има знакова оштећења или хабања.
КСНУМКС. Решавање проблема
| Проблем | Могући узрок | Решење |
|---|---|---|
| Нетачна очитавања | Dirty prism; improper calibration; insufficient sample; temperature difference. | Clean prism thoroughly; recalibrate if necessary; ensure adequate sample volume; allow sampда достигне собну температуру. |
| Blurred field of view | Eyepiece out of focus. | Rotate the eyepiece to adjust focus until the scale is clear. |
| Boundary line not visible | Insufficient light; no sampле; сample too dark or opaque. | Ensure adequate light source; apply sample; dilute very dark samples if appropriate for measurement. |
| Вода унутар уређаја | Exceeded IP65 water resistance limits (e.g., full immersion). | Discontinue use immediately. Contact customer support for repair or replacement. |
