This expected life will shorten as the batteries age. Q: Is the there a power cord available for the TSS portable system? A: No, the TSS portable system will only come with a battery charger. It is recommended to turn the meter off while charging the batteries. - Page 18 A: No, the meter does not have a way to connect to a storage device or a computer. Q: What do I do if Hach changes the software version of the meter? A: The meter will have to be sent to the appropriate service center for the software update.
- Page 19 Setting up a new calibration curve is recommended. If the problem continues, the sludge concentration is too high to be measured with the TSS portable probe; the value is beyond the probes measurement range.
- Page 20 Q: Is there general guidance for creating the most accurate calibration curve for suspended solids? A: Hach recommends selecting a calibration point with a value in the upper third of the range expected. Start with a single point calibration in that range. In case a single point calibration is not sufficient, the error “message Calibration insufficient –“or “Calibration insufficient +”...
- Page 21 % of homogeneity is high. The ratio between water and sludge and the structure of the sludge is responsible for a high homogeneity value. Q: Will the TSS portable system work correctly on low or not fully charged batteries? A: Customers have reported issues with taking measurements, frozen menus, meters powering off unexpectedly, and calibration issues when the batteries were low or not fully charged.
