Introduction

The Thermo Scientific Orion 2200 series analyzers are
compact wet-chemistry analysis systems, designed for the
continuous on-line analysis of water in several applications
across many industries.
The Orion 2210AM Ammonia Analyzer uses the colorimetric
detection method that relies on specific reagents that are
added to the sample to produce a reacted color compound.
The intensity of the color determines the concentration in
reference to a known reacted standard. The colored
compound absorbs energy at a specific wavelength in
accordance with the Beer-Lambert Law.
The instrument uses Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) that emit
light at a narrow bandwidth selected for the specific
application.

Unpacking the Instrument

Introduction
Startup Procedure
This section describes the necessary steps to begin using the
Orion 2210AM Ammonia Analyzer. Refer to
Installation Environmental Considerations for instructions on
mounting the analyzer, making the plumbing connections,
and connecting electrical power. More details can be found in
Specifications Section for Sample Requirements for Analyzer
Inlet.
Once the analyzer is securely mounted in a fixed location,
wired to electrical power, wired to communications,
(if necessary) and plumbed to process water, perform the
following instrument startup procedure:
1. Power on instrument.
2. To allow longer life time of unit, the pump-head tubing are
not fully engaged when the unit is shipped. Refer to
Plumbing Connections Section.
a. Reset tubes in pumps heads.
Note: This step must be repeated for all four pump
heads.
i. Remove tape.
ii. Slide tube retainer into place along keyway.
iii. Install tubing cover by squeezing both sides,
and sliding into grooves.
3. Install reagents. Very carefully match reagent numbers
in their proper order. Refer to Installing the Reagents
Section.
It is recommended to wear latex gloves
whenever handling or changing reagents.
Turn the reagent cap clockwise while
NOTES:
holding bottle vertical and level.
Inspect the tubes to be sure none have
been pinched.
