Analysis of the measurement error check of the multifunctional direct-reading calcium meter

The multifunctional, direct-reading calcium meter can not only measure the dosage of lime and cement, but also the content of active calcium oxide in the lime. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


At the same time, after replacing the ion-selective electrode, the instrument can also be used as a standard ion potentiometer for electrochemical investigations or for the determination of other ions. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


This instrument features 16-bit A/D converter, high input impedance design, stable data, and can input any ion selective electrode. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Calibration data can be stored in the instrument, recalibration is not required. A micro printer can be connected to print out the test results. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Measurement error check of the multifunctional direct-reading calcium meter:afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


In the actual measurement, there may be errors in the measurement of the calibration device due to various reasons. Find hereProvides an introduction to the inspection steps after a fault has occurred and how to determine the possible location of the fault. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


This measurement system can be divided into three parts: instrument, electrode and solution. A separate review can identify where the error is occurring and then analyze it in detail to fix the error. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


The inspection steps are as follows:afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


1. After the instrument is turned on, a non-zero voltage reading is displayed. Press the reset button, after clearing, the zero point will no longer drift, indicating the instrument is normal. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


2. Check the electrode. The following errors may occur on the electrode: afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


(1) The calcium electrode is not injected the inner filling solution; or the wrong internal fill fluid will be injected. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


(2) The calcium electrode is not filled with enough liquid and the internale Reference electrode does not penetrate into the solutionafbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


(3) The film At the end, the calcium electrode is degummed, the filling solution runs out or the white film turns yellow or black. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


(4) The filling liquid level of the calomel electrode is lower than that of the calomel core. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


(5) The liquid filling in the calomel electrode turns yellow and fails. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


(6) The calomel electrode is injected with the wrong filling liquid. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


3. No problem was found after the instrument and electrode check, but the error persists. At this time, pour about 30 mL of local tap water into a 50 mL beaker and place the beaker on the top of the instrument. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


The instrument is initially not connected to the electrode. Select the “mV potentiometer” function, press the reset button, then connect the instrument to the electrode and dip the electrodein tap water. At this point, the instrument should show a negative reading of about -15~-50mV. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


If the numbers differ too much or appear positive. If the electrode is damaged, the electrode should be replaced. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


If the number displayed is normal but the error persists, it means that the solution the electrode penetrates is wrong and the solution should be prepared again. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Before calibrating the instrument with the Calibration Solution, perform the following checks: Disconnect the instrument from the electrode, turn off the stirring, press the zero button and wait for the measurement to finish zeroing. Immerse the electrode in the calibration solution,afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


At the calcium dose, the electrode will read positive tens of millivolts in the 6.0% calibration solution. In the 14.0% calibration solution, the displayed Werts more than 7-10 millivolts greater than the displayed value of 6.0%. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


When measuring cement dosage, the instrument should read positive tens of millivolts when the electrode is in a 3.0% calibrant solution. In the 10.0% calibration solution, the number displayed is 10-15 millivolts greater than the 3.0% number displayed. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


For calcium oxide levels, the electrode should read positive tens of millivolts in the 20% calibration solution. In the 80% calibration solution, the number displayed is 15-20 millivolts greater than the 20% reading. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


The following error phenomena are common among users:afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


1st phenomenon: the electrode is in the mV potentiometer in the calibration solution 1 position , the number displayed is greater than positive tenths of millivolts, or 1 is displayed, or a negative value is displayedafbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Reasons: 1. The calcium electrode is degummed or damaged. 2. The calomel batterery is damaged. 3. The filling liquid in the electrode was added incorrectly. 4. The liquid level of the mercury electrode drops. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Actions: Cause 3 and 4 Add filling liquid. Reason 1, 2 replace the electrodeafbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


2. Phenomenon: After calibration, the instrument displays the value of solid calibration solution 1 or calibration solution 2afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Reason: The error signal of the input head of the instrument cannot be input. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Measures: The instrument's internal input interface is disconnected, the case is opened, and the disconnected wire is welded. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


3. Phenomenon: The instrument display is unstable or drifts greatly during the measurement and calibration processafbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Reason: 1. The humidity is too high. 2. The instrument is wet. 3. Aging of the electrode. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Actions: Cause 1 and 2 Dry the input head with a hair dryer or open the top coverof the instrument and use a hair dryer to maintain moisture. Reason 3 Replace the electrodes. afbTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer
