Жайгашуу
1. Батареяны орнотуу
- Locate the battery compartment on the back of the refractometer.
- Батарея уясынын капкагын ачыңыз.
- Туура полярдуулукту (+/-) камсыз кылып, комплекттеги 9V батареяны салыңыз.
- Батарея уясынын капкагын бекем жабыңыз.
2. Initial Calibration (Zero Setting)
For accurate measurements, the refractometer must be calibrated with distilled water before first use and periodically thereafter.
- Ensure the refractometer is clean and dry.
- Place a few drops of distilled water onto the sample well (prism surface). Ensure the prism surface is completely covered.
- басыңыз БАШТОО түзмөктү күйгүзүү үчүн баскыч.
- басыңыз НӨЛ button (refer to device buttons for exact labeling if different from generic). The display should show "0.0%" or similar, indicating successful calibration.
- Wipe the distilled water from the sample well using a soft, lint-free cloth.
Note: Calibration should be performed at an ambient temperature between 5 to 40 degrees C.

1. Ченөө алуу
- s камсыз кылууample well is clean and dry.
- Place one to two drops of the liquid sample on to sample well (prism surface). Ensure the prism is fully covered without air bubbles.
- Close the daylight plate (if applicable) gently over the sample.
- басыңыз БАШТОО өлчөөнү баштоо үчүн баскычты басыңыз.
- The % Brix reading will be displayed on the LED screen within approximately three seconds. The device automatically compensates for temperature variations within its operating range (5 to 40 degrees C).
- Зарыл болсо өлчөөнү жазыңыз.
- After measurement, clean the sample well thoroughly with distilled water and a soft cloth.
2. Using the User-Scale Function
The PR-32α features a user-scale function, allowing you to input a coefficient to convert the Brix reading into a specific concentration unit relevant to your sample (e.g., concentration = Brix X coefficient).
- Refer to the detailed instructions in the full user manual (if provided separately) or Atago's official website for specific steps on programming and utilizing the user-scale function.
- This function is particularly useful for specific industrial or chemical applications where a direct Brix reading needs conversion to a custom unit.
3. External Light Interference (ELI) Technology
The refractometer incorporates ELI technology, which minimizes interference from strong external light sources (e.g., direct sunlight, bright windows). This ensures accurate measurements even when operating outdoors or near bright light sources.
Техникалык тейлөө
1. Cleaning the Sample Well
- Ар дайым сample well (stainless steel 316 prism surface) immediately after each use.
- Use distilled water and a soft, lint-free cloth or tissue to gently wipe away any sample калдык.
- Do not use abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the prism surface.
- s камсыз кылууample well is completely dry before storing the device or taking a new measurement.
2. Жалпы кам көрүү жана сактоо
- The device has an Ingress Protection (IP)-65 rating, offering protection against dust and splashing water. However, avoid submerging the unit in water or exposing it to excessive moisture.
- Store the refractometer in its carrying case when not in use to protect it from dust, dirt, and physical damage.
- Салкын, кургак жерде, түз күндүн нурунан жана экстремалдык температурадан алыс сактаңыз.
- If the device will not be used for an extended period, remove the 9V battery to prevent leakage.
