Warnings
Read this manual carefully before using: this manual should be read by anyone who will be
operating the CI-900.
By following the guidelines, the CI-900 will function according to the specifications in this
instruction manual.
All repairs should be performed by a CID Bio-Science technician.
The analyzer must be used to measure the rate of ethylene in the presence of nitrogen,
oxygen and carbon dioxide. All other gases in high concentration could lead to erroneous
measurements, or the destruction of the sensor. Do not use the instrument in the presence
high concentrations of aromatic solvents, hydrocarbons or other volatile organic
compounds, such as in unventilated painting rooms or chemical storage rooms.
Damage to the analyzer can occur if the fluid reservoir level is too low or if the inlet and
outlet gas connections are blocked while the pump operates. This can cause false readings
or irreparable damage to the sensor.
If smoke comes out of the analyzer, turn off the power immediately and contact CID Bio-
Science.
Keep the analyzer in a clean and ventilated room at ambient temperature.
Do not allow fluid to aspirate in the analyzer, which can destroy the sensors.
Do not use the CI-900 in a high RF (radio frequency) environment.
High RF will disrupt
the CI-900.
ESD (electrostatic discharge) can also interfere with CI-900.
Do not tilt the CI-900 when Chamber In contains water!
The analyzer has a reservoir containing 1 mol of sulfuric acid (2N H2SO4). Avoid
contact with skin and eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water or use
an eyewash or safety shower. Do not drink the contents of the fluid reservoirs as
it could cause chemical burns. See Appendix I for the safety data sheet and
further information on sulfuric acid.
