2 Partially-filled syringes can be loaded into the Nano ITC using the following process:
a Fill the syringe to a small amount greater than the starting volume. The excess volume will be
displaced when the syringe is loaded into the buret handle.
b Preset the buret handle to the desired starting volume. Refer to the Appendix for more details on the
buret setting functions.
c Install the syringe into the buret handle, and use a lint-free lab tissue to blot and remove the excess
fluid that is expelled from the syringe tip.
d Install the buret handle with the syringe into the Nano ITC.
3 Hold the rotating shaft on the buret securely in one hand. Use the knurled knob at the base of the syringe
barrel to finger-tighten the syringe into place with the other hand. A small droplet will appear at the tip
of the syringe.

4 Wipe any excess titrant from the needle along the exterior of the barrel and the tip.
Installing the Buret Assembly
The bell-shaped upper portion of the buret assembly has three notched key slots for correct orientation in
the instrument. Install the buret as follows:
1 Guide the shaft carefully, needle first, into the top opening of the calorimeter (see the figure below).
Make sure the key slots line up with the three locking posts located in the mounting ring at the top. Turn
