do any additives need to be added to the sample to aid dispersion (and what

how will the result be calculated and displayed?
Anyone can create an SOP but typically it is the responsibility of the supervisor. An
SOP can be created in one laboratory and then distributed to all Mastersizer 2000
users within an organisation. (All the sites must have the dispersion units the SOP
refers to.)
Remember that no instrument has to be connected to the computer to write an
SOP. The Malvern software can be installed on a remote computer and SOPs cre-
ated and edited before they are tried out on an instrument. See the
Essentials
Manual for details on installing the software on another computer.
Editing an SOP
An existing SOP can be easily edited, either to correct that SOP or to create a new
SOP based on it.
To edit an SOP:

Select Configure-Existing SOP .
2.
A tabbed dialogue appears, each tab corresponding to a SOP Wizard dialogue.
3.

To create a new SOP based on an existing one, the user must first modify the exist-
ing SOP using
Configure-Edit SOP . Once all the changes have been made, the
Save-As dialogue will appear. Save the SOP under a different name
Deleting an SOP
An existing SOP can also be deleted using
Configure-Existing SOP.
To delete an SOP:
1.
Select Configure-Existing SOP .
2.
When the Open dialogue appears select the SOP to delete.
3.
Right-click and select Delete .
4.
When asked to confirm deletion of the file, select Yes .
Alternatively, use Windows Explorer to delete the SOP.
