Insertion of Carousel, Speed of lifting up and down, Sensors
Required tools:
Screwdriver
The crucible- and the lid-carousel are needed to carry and station the crucibles respectively
and lids during analysis. The lifting up and down of the carousels is controlled by sensors,
that inspect the actual status of the paricular carousel (
up
or
down
; see Operationmanual:
Form -
Controller
).
a.)
Put the crucible-caroussell with the openings at the appliance of the carousel-
adaptor.
b.)
Lift the carousel up and down and observe the speed of the movement (see
Operation manual: Form –
Controller
).
Please note: The carousel should be moved as slowly as possible without jerk to keep pedestal
of the balance free of vibration. Vibrations of the pedestal would disturb or prolong the
weighing during analysis, because the balance would need longer time for stabilization. Same
method is essential for lidcarousel.
