Page 18: Configuring The Parameters For The Sample Preparation
Operation Configuring the parameters for the sample preparation The sample preparation unit APUsim has three pump units with two channels each. The pa- rameters for sample preparation can be configured individually for each pump unit. DIN EN ISO 9562 specifies the following parameters for AOX determination using the column method: Sam- ple volume 100 mL, rinse volume 25 mL, dosing speed 3 mL/min. -

Operation Note: There is a risk of splashing if the drainage channel is located too low under the col- umn unit. Fill the plastic syringes with the desired volume of the acidified samples. Insert the syringes into the APUsim. Ensure the tight closure of the connection using the sealing ring. Switch on the APUsim from the mains switch at the equipment backplate. -

Operation Slide the drainage channel directly under the column units. Note: There is a risk of splashing if the drainage channel is located too low under the col- umn unit. Fill the desired volume of the acidified samples into the plastic syringes. Note: Use syringes without pistons in the manual mode. - Page 22 Operation Solid phase extraction Attach SPE cartridges via the Luer lock. Condition the SPE cartridges with metha- nol. Add filtered and acidified samples to the SPE cartridges. Rinse SPE cartridges with nitric NaNO solution to flush out interfering matrix components.
