Set-up-procedure
When setting up this device for first time, follow every points below very
carefully until page 13.
Placement
Make sure you place the Alkatronic in a location that allows you to easily manage
regular maintenance. The machine must be placed in a horizontal position.
Actually,
some very very small tilting to the left is no harm, and actually some benefit
(but is not needed), but never tilting to the right
!
It is possible to mount the device directly on a wall with our included wall mount, or
just let it stand on a flat surface.
The height di ff erence between the Alkatronic
and the water surface level from where the machine will take the water for
testing, should not exceed 40-50 cm.
The reagent bottle should be placed as close as possible to the machine and
ideally at the same level or as maximum 20 cm lower than the machine.
Make sure that if you adjust any of these positions (the reagent bottle or the
machine itself), you recalibrate the pumps, as the delivery amount of fluids can vary
based on the suction heights.
Connecting hoses and prepare the measuring-beaker
All connections are made of
Luer-connections.
The female part of the Luer is
factory-mounted in the walls of the machine, and the external hoses described
below (1-5) should be installed tightly on the male part of the Luer, which should
then be twisted on the female part. See pictures below. This makes it very easy to
detach the external hoses when moving the machine.
