Required Calibration Supplies - GE Sievers 900 Series Operation And Maintenance Manual

The Sievers 900 Series TOC Analyzers facilitate the calibration and verification process by handling
the necessary calculations internally; you will have the opportunity to accept or reject the
calibration during the procedure. Calibration and verification are accomplished using Sievers
Standards in 40-mL vials, sampled via the Analyzer's IOS System.
Only a single-point calibration or a multi-point calibration needs to be performed. Do
Note:
not perform both types of calibration.
If the Analyzer does not have access to a continuous water supply (e.g., it is configured
Note:
for Grab mode), one 40-mL vial of low-TOC (<50 ppb) DI water will be required for a
reagent syringe flush prior to calibration.
If you use the Autoreagent feature, Autoreagent verification also should be performed, but only
after the sample flow rate has been calibrated and the calibration of the Analyzer has been
verified.

Required Calibration Supplies

The number of standards required for the calibration procedure depends on whether you choose a
multi-point or single-point calibration. Standards vials are inserted into the IOS System as prompted
by the Analyzer's on-screen instructions. Refer to Table 11 through Table 14 for the standards
required for multi-point calibration, single-point calibration, calibration verification, and system
suitability.
A multi-point calibration should require approximately 5.5 hours to complete, and single-point
calibration should require approximately 1.5 hours to complete.
Sievers Standards for all calibration and verification procedures should be purchased from GE
Analytical Instruments. Standards sets for calibration and verification can be purchased
individually, or as combined Calibration & Verification Sets. All standards are provided in 40-mL
vials. Standard sets for validation (System Suitability, Accuracy & Precision, Linearity) can be
purchased individually, or as a combined Validation Set.
