1.

 

Turn the liquid delivery system on. 

 

 

2.

 

To energize the ultrasonics, press the 

START 

key. To de-energize the 

ultrasonics, press the 

STOP

 key. To increase or decrease the amplitude in 

small increments when the ultrasonics is on, depress the 

ENTER/REVIEW

 

key repeatedly until the screen displays AMPLITUDE CONTROL, then 

depress the 

 

or

 

 

key, as required. 

 

3.

 

Empirically determine the best flow rate / amplitude combination. 

 

4.

 

If a footswitch or remote actuation device is used, depress the  
switch to turn the ultrasonics off, plug in the footswitch or remote actuation 
device into the footswitch jack, and depress the             switch again to turn  
the ultrasonics back on. Depressing the footswitch, or closing the contact on 
the remote actuation device connected to the footswitch jack, will energize the 
ultrasonics.

 

NOTE 

For the majority of atomizing applications, low amplitude will atomize the 

sample better than high amplitude. 

NOTE 

To clear an erroneous entry, press the 

CLEAR

 key. 

NOTE 

The 

START

 key and footswitch are mutually exclusive. If the process is initiated 

by the 

START

 key, the footswitch becomes inoperative. If the process is initiated 

by the footswitch, the 

STOP

 key becomes inoperative.
