Rinsing the Flow Cell
WARNING
Be sure to follow the procedure for rinsing the flow cell.
1. Open the sample inlet valve, see A.
• Position the valve with the pointed end facing up for open
position.
2. Open the bypass/needle valve by turning it counterclockwise, see B.
•
Check for the appropriate sample flow.
•
Adjust the pressure regulator if required. See step 3.
3. Adjust the knob on the pressure regulator, see C, so the ball in the
flow meter indicates the correct flow rate reading, see D. The flow
rate should be adjusted to 40 mL/minute.
• Pull out the knob to unlock the setting and allow adjustment of
the flow rate.
• Turn the knob clockwise to increase the flow rate.
• Turn the knob counterclockwise to decrease the flow rate.
• Push in the knob to lock the setting.

Dynamic Calibrator Operation
The dynamic calibrator is used to deliver a standard solution to the WE430 analyzer during
calibration. Place the dynamic calibrator on a support near the analyzer. The calibrator location
should be close enough to allow easy connection of the syringe tubing to the injection port on
analyzer.

Dynamic Calibrator must be purchased directly from Thermo Fisher Scientific.inc.
