The Zetasizer Nano measures three different particle characteristics; the text
within each chapter has therefore been structured to, detail the instrument
functions as applicable to all measurements types, or individually if the function
only applies to one, i.e. if concerned only with zeta potential measurements
ignore all references to size and molecular weight unless otherwise directed.
Access to the Instrument
Within this manual, reference is made to the various people who will have access
to the instrument.
Malvern personnel
Malvern personnel (service engineers, representatives etc.) have full access to the
instrument and are the only people authorised to perform all service procedures
that may require the removal of the covers.
#
Warning!
Supervisor
The supervisor is the person responsible for the management and safety of the
instrument and its operation. The supervisor is responsible for the training of the
operators. They can perform all user maintenance routines identified in chapter 7.
Under no circumstances, should the supervisor remove the main cover of the
instrument.
Operator
An operator is a person trained in the use of the system. The operator can
perform all user maintenance routines identified in chapter 7, except changing the
fuse.
Under no circumstances, should the operator remove the main cover of the
instrument.
