10.10 Using the Correct Measuring Vessel
The service life and precision of the measurement system depend on the correct measuring vessel in
use.
■
Intended Use
The measuring vessels are designed for single use only. Reuse of the measuring vessels can
result in non-verifiable readings or even a destruction of the measurement system.
We are unaware of any reactions between the sample solution and measuring vessel (in
osmometry). However, we advise against using the measuring vessels for other purposes.
For information on the material properties, please refer to product safety data sheet

■
Specification
The conic shape of the measuring vessel matches that of the lower cooling system. This ensures a
secure fit
, a high standard of
centricity
for the measuring vessel in the lower cooling system and
consistent immersion depth
of the measuring tip in the sample.
The following has to be observed:
The measuring vessels can move freely in the sample holder.
The sample cover can be placed on the sample holder without force and the measuring
vessels do not tilt between the sample cover and the sample holder.
■
Forfeiture of the Measurement System Warranty
Destruction of the measurement system due to the use of improper measuring vessels, even during
the warranty period, shall result in forfeiture of the warranty claim of repair or replacement of the
measurement system.
