1. Support the bottom of the reagent bottle and release the holding clamp with one hand. Turn
the thumbscrew counterclockwise to release the reagent bottle. Unscrew the white bottle
cap and gray tubing connector assembly. The bottle that is supplied with the analyzer can
be used as a spare.
2. Take a new bottle of the reagent (Cat. No. 181811) to a well ventilated area, such as a
laboratory fume hood. Unscrew and remove the white cap on the bottle.
3. Connect the diffusion tubing (Cat. No. 181860) to the tubing connector assembly. Place the
tubing assembly and cap into the bottle.
4. Replace the gray cap and screw the white cap on tightly.
5. Insert the four nipples on the top of the reagent bottle into the fluid connector block.
6. Support the bottom of the reagent bottle with one hand and tighten the thumbscrew
clockwise.
7. Clamp the bottle to the fluidics panel to secure it.

Installation of New Electrode Cables
1. Unpack the electrode cables.
2. Feed the tinned wires through the cable gland assemblies with the holes (2 or 1).
3. Follow the terminal assignments shown in Figure 2.6 for the proper electrode cable wiring
location.
2.6
Installation of a New Iodide Electrode
The Iodide electrode (Part number: K9705CG) must be used in conjunction with the reference
electrode (Part number: K9705CH).
1. Unpack the iodide electrode (Part number: K9705CG) and carefully remove the protective
cap. Save the cap for future storage of the electrode. Use the electrode polishing strip to
gently polish the sensing surface of the iodide electrode for about 30 seconds.
2. Insert the Iodide electrode into its port in the flow cell cap. Refer to Figure 2.8 for the
location. Installation in the incorrect hole will cause calibration issues.
3. Plug the electrode cable marked “Sensing” into the top of the electrode. Be sure to
push back the black cap to verify a secure connection between the male and female pin
connection prior to tightening.
4. Tighten the screw cap connection to the cable.
