Combustion IC system and information on installing the 920 Absorber Module and its interfaces to the Combus- tion-IC-System. You can download the detailed manual for the 920 Absorber Module as a PDF file from the Internet (https://www.metrohm.com). Combustion-IC-System ■■■■■■■■...
Combustion IC is particularly suited for deter- mining the following elements: Figure 1 Detectable elements An additional instrument is required for the determination of gaseous samples: the LPG/GSS Module (AJ) (2.136.0720) or the GLS Sampler CIC (TEI) (2.0136.0630). ■■■■■■■■ Combustion-IC-System...
The entire process is controlled and monitored using MagIC Net software. The analysis data is saved in the software's database. 2.1.3 Sequence of a determination A determination in the Combustion IC system runs according to the fol- lowing diagram: Combustion-IC-System ■■■■■■■■...
Absorption solution: Combustion gases dissolved in the absorber ■ solution. The determination is controlled entirely by MagIC Net. You can find a detailed description of the sequence in the online help for MagIC Net under the title "Combustion sequence". ■■■■■■■■ Combustion-IC-System...
The electrical safety when working with the instrument is ensured as part of the international standard IEC 61010. WARNING Only personnel qualified by Metrohm are authorized to carry out service work on electronic components. WARNING Never open the housing of the instrument. The instrument could be damaged by this.
Avoid applying excessive force to tubing con- nections. Damaged tubing ends lead to leakage. Appropriate tools can be used to loosen connections. Check the connections regularly for leakage. If the instrument is used mainly in unattended operation, then weekly inspections are manda- tory. ■■■■■■■■ Combustion-IC-System...
The correct disposal of your old instrument will help to prevent negative effects on the environment and public health. More details about the disposal of your old instrument can be obtained from your local authorities, from waste disposal companies or from your local dealer. Combustion-IC-System ■■■■■■■■...
