Section 6: Operation

6.4  Measure individual/batch samples

Personnel: User
Safety gear:

•  Disposable lab gloves

Materials:

•  Soft, lint free paper tissue
•  Pipette
•  Measurement vessel
•  Sample

NOTE!
Impaired repeatability of measurement due to incorrect measurement vessels!

Repeated use of the measurement vessels and use of incorrect consumables cannot guarantee 

reproducible measurement results.

•  Always use a clean and unused measurement vessel for every measurement.
•  Only use measurement vessels supplied by ELITechGroup.
•  Never use centrifuge tubes or reaction vessels.

NOTE!
Risk of incorrect measurement resulting from the presence of air bubbles in the sample!

• 

The sample must be pipetted without air bubbles.

1.  Clean thermistor probe using a soft, dry, lint free paper towel.

Figure 42 Clean thermistor probe

2.  Tap Measure on the Start menu. 

If the operating time of the device is less than 3 minutes, a wait screen for 

ice formation is displayed.
