Frequently Asked Questions
What is the warranty period for the YG1863 model?
The YG1863 model typically comes with a standard one-year warranty from the manufacturer, covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal usage conditions.
How often should the pH meter be calibrated?
To maintain measurement accuracy, it is recommended to calibrate the pH meter regularly, ideally before each use or at least once a week, depending on the frequency of use and the conditions in which it is used.
Can this meter be used for fieldwork?
While the YG1863 is designed primarily for benchtop use due to its configuration and power requirements, it can be used in fieldwork settings if the environment is controlled and a power source is available.
Advantages and Disadvantages
Advantages: The YG1863 offers exceptional accuracy and a wide measurement range, which are crucial for complex scientific tasks. Its auto and manual temperature compensation features enhance its reliability. The five-inch backlit LCD screen boosts visibility, ensuring that data can be read easily in various lighting conditions.
Disadvantages: The device’s main disadvantage is that it is not highly portable due to its need for a stable power connection and its IP54 rating, which may not provide adequate protection in extreme outdoor environments. Additionally, the higher price point may be a consideration for some consumers with tight budgets.
Field Use
The YG1863 benchtop meter is a staple in laboratories requiring precise and accurate measurements of pH, conductivity, and temperature. It is an essential tool in industries such as environmental monitoring, food and beverage production, and pharmaceuticals. In the field, it is ideal for controlled environments where it can be connected to a power source and used on a stable surface, ensuring it delivers accurate results without interruption.
In application, the instrument’s temperature compensation and broad measurement range mean that tasks such as evaluating water samples from different sources or testing solutions in a lab setting can be conducted seamlessly.
