To fill the KOBRA® CELL with water:
1. Fill a syringe with 5 - 10 ml of water and attach
the tip of the syringe to a pipette tip.
2. Unscrew one of the storage plugs / ferrules from
one inlet / outlet position of the KOBRA® CELL,
leaving the other inlet / outlet positions sealed
with storage plugs or ferrules.
3. Using the syringe with the pipette tip, insert this
into the empty inlet / outlet position on the
KOBRA® CELL and fill the cell with water until
water overflows from the syringe connection.
4. When finished, reinsert the storage plug / ferrule
to contain the water within the cell and keep the
