Page 10: Priming Of Lines
Ensure you prepare sufficient amounts of each solution, taking into account the volume required for priming (~2mL per prime), calibration and sample analysis. It is recommended to prepare a total minimum volume of 20mL for each sample, and 250mL and 500mL of pre-mixed calibrant and blank, respectively. 4.4 Priming of Lines Always prime both Port A and Port B lines 3 times before any analysis to ensure that both lines are filled with liquid and there are no air bubbles present. -
