K8 / K12 / K20 / K16 / K24 / K40 makes
it quick and easy for you to insert your samples into the
heating block and to remove them for cooling down.
Thus you are always sure that all samples have been
treated exactly the same.
Why not get acquainted with the handling right now?
Parking the sample rack
On the middle of the mounting rail in the rear of the heat-
ing block you will see two hooks to hang the sample rack
on. When lifting the sample rack out of the heating block,
run it along the mounting rail, and it will engage in the
hooks automatically.
Grasp the sample rack using the two red handles.
Lift the rack carefully. Run it along the mounting rail
while doing so. Lift the rack upward until you hear it
engage.
Lower the rack carefully onto the hooks, in order to
check that it has engaged correctly. If this is not the
case, lower it again and repeat the above procedure.
Now the device is in the same position as before the
start of a digestion.
Insertig the samples into the heating block
Grasp the sample rack using the two red handles.
Position the sample rack on the digestion unit in such
a way that the sample vessels locate in the holes in
the digestion unit.
Take the exhaust collector from the top of the
mounting rail, and place it on top of the sample rack.
The upper parts of the PTFE stoppers will rest on the
rims of the sample vessels, and the suction tubes will
go into the sample vessels so the fume extractor can
remove any vapours coming out of them.
