D. The measurement cycle
• Phase 0: initiation of the measurement cycle
• Phase 1: the element brings the solution to the correct
temperature (35 °C)
• Phases 2 and 3: the probe electrochemically produces
iodine as a function of the mass of flour introduced
• Phase 4: the plateau measures the exact current (i.e.,
iodine) created (maximum value (lm))
• Phase 5: at the end of the plateau, the flour is introduced
and the iodine is fixed, the current decreases as a
function of the absorption of the iodine
• Phase 6: 180 seconds after the incorporation of the flour,
the probe measures the value of residual current (Ir).
E. Results
At the end of the test, the results are displayed with:
• The level of starch damage expressed by the iodine absorption rate (AI%) as well
as various other units of measure (UCD, UCDc, AACC 76-31, Farrand).
• The standard value (UCD) is a raw value
• The corrected value (UCDc) takes into account the levels of moisture and protein.
To see the speed of iodine absorption, touch ''Starch damage''.
To return to the previous screen, touch ''Speed of iodine absorption''.
It is possible to:
• Print the results by touching the ''Print'' icon.
• Exit the results screen by touching the w icon.
F. Cleaning after each test
After each test the measurement probe, the stirrer and the element of the
SDmatic must be cleaned.
1. To do this, use the container located on the left side of the SDmatic.
2. Place the container below the measurement probe, the stirrer and the
element.
3. Gently rinse with distilled water.
4. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
The measurement probe is very fragile - it
must be gently cleaned and wiped dry in
order not to damage the measurement
rings.

SWITCHING OFF THE INSTRUMENT

1. Switch off the instrument using the switch located at the rear.
2. When the instrument is not in use, the measurement probe of the
SDmatic must be immersed in water.
