8 General

Instructions:

8.1 Warm-Up

Time

The warm up time of the electronic and opto-electronic components of the pH-10 mini is
5 min. Afterwards stable measurement values are obtained.

8.2 Maintenance

The instrument is maintenance-free.

The housing should be cleaned only with a moist cloth. Avoid any moisture entering the
housing! Never use benzine, acetone, alcohol or other organic solvents.

The SMA-fiber connector of the sensor can be cleaned only with lint-free cloth. Please clean
the connector at least after having a sensor connected for more than 20 times.

8.3 Service

Balancing, maintenance and repair work may only be carried out by the manufacturer:
