4.1 Cleaning the EasyDens
Regular cleaning is crucial for maintaining the accuracy and longevity of your EasyDens device. After each measurement, especially with sugary or viscous samples, clean the measuring cell immediately.
- Disconnect the syringe and waste hose.
- Rinse the measuring cell thoroughly with distilled water using the syringe. Inject water until the cell is clear of any residue.
- For stubborn residues, a mild cleaning solution recommended by Anton Paar can be used, followed by a thorough rinse with distilled water.
- Allow the measuring cell to air dry completely or gently dry with a lint-free cloth.
- The EasyDens is water-resistant (IP65), allowing for simple rinsing under a tap, but avoid submerging the entire device.
Proper cleaning prevents sample residue buildup, which can affect measurement accuracy.
