2.1.1. Reagent locations and connections
When installing the Diluent on the system, it is most important to maintain the depth
of the container no lower than 80 cm (31.5 in.) below the instrument. If the depth
limit is exceeded, erroneous results will occur.
Diluent and Waste tubing lengths are critical upon installation. Follow the recom-
mended lengths for best results:
DILUENT input tubing: Cristal 3x6/ 2 meters (80 in.) maximum.
WASTE output tubing: Cristal 4x6/ 2 meters (80 in.) maximum.
