2. Enter each lot-specific target absorbance value from the label on the PV-1 ampoule in its 

associated entry box and then tap 

Done

.

3. Lift the instrument arm and clean the upper and lower pedestal with a new laboratory 

wipe.

4. Pipette 1 µL DI H

O onto the lower pedestal, lower the arm and tap 

Blank

.

5. Lift the arm and clean both pedestals with a new wipe.

6. Pipette 1 µL PV-1 solution onto the lower pedestal and start the sample measurement:

• If 

Auto-Measure

 is On, lower arm

• If Auto-Measure is off, lower arm and tap 

Measure

 or from the PC Control software, 

select 

Run

.

After the measurement, the software displays the results. Here is an example of the 
performance verification result screen.

Note  

Vigorously shake the ampoule of PV-1 solution, allow the liquid to collect in 

the bottom portion of the ampoule and then follow standard practices to open it.
