Install an STA 6000 . 47
CAUTION
ATTENTION
The heat exchanger of the STA 6000 will NOT accept pressure.
Therefore, flow regulation should be done before the liquid enters the
STA 6000.
L'échangeur de chaleur du STA 6000 n'acceptera PAS la pression. Par
conséquent, la régulation du débit devrait être effectuée avant que le
liquide entre dans le STA 6000 ...
CAUTION
ATTENTION
It is essential to maintain a very constant flow rate of approximately 5
l/h (80–90 ml/min). The liquid should be free of air bubbles. Changes in
the liquid flow rate or the presence of air bubbles will negatively
influence the quality of the measurement signal.
Il est essentiel de maintenir un débit très constant d'environ 5 l/h (80-90
ml/min). Le liquide doit être exempt de bulles d'air. Les changements
dans le débit de liquide ou la présence de bulles d'air influenceront
négativement la qualité du signal de mesure.
Connecting to tap water
When using tap water:
1. Make sure the tap water is conveniently located near the STA 6000.
2. Connect a hose to the Cooling Liquid In connector. Secure with a clamp.
3. Connect the other end of this hose to the tap.
4. Connect the other hose to the Cooling Liquid Out connector. Secure with a clamp.
5. Connect the other end of the hose to a suitable drain.
The cooling inlet and outlet are located at the rear of the analyzer and are correspondingly
marked Cooling Liquid In and Cooling Liquid Out. In order to connect the cooling supply to
the STA 6000, connect black tubing supplied to the inlet and outlet (outer diameter is 8 mm).
When using tap water, connect the inlet to the tap and the outlet to a suitable drain. When
using a circulator, connect the inlet of the STA 6000 to the outlet of the circulator, and the
outlet of the STA 6000 to the inlet of the circulator.
The temperature of the cooling liquid should not change more then 0.4 °C/hour in the case
of tap water.
