Opening the water inlet
Slowly open the manually operated shut-off valve to prevent the
measuring chamber
from overflowing. The flow controller re-
quires a few seconds to function correctly.
Make sure that the water conducting parts are not leaky.
If water sprays from the tube
of the measuring chamber
, re-
duce the amount of inlet water via manually operated shut-off
valve. It should take 2 to 6 seconds to fill the measuring chamber!
Venting reagent lines
During operation, the pump (PERIClip)
automatically extracts rea-
gent.
The pump’s suction hose
and transport hose
must be filled with
the reagent up to the measuring chamber so reagent is present for in-
itial analyses.
Switch the instrument on and press the
Manual
button on the cir-
cuit board.
Press the
Manual
key at the pump several times until the intake
hose
and the transport hose
are filled up to the measuring
chamber.
If necessary, manually tighten the hose connectors of the intake
and transport hose slightly in case of bubble formation.
Press the
Manual
button on the circuit board to quit standby mode.
The device starts the analysis.
