Page 10: Fig. 2 Sample Path
Design and function APU sim during sample preparation. To prevent incompletely dissolved components in these samples from settling in the syringe and thus preventing the AOX or AOF determination, sample preparation can be carried out manually. Function The samples are filled into the plastic syringes. The 3 tube pumps pump the samples over the activated carbon columns according to the program settings. -

APU sim Operation } Empty the waste container. } Fill the storage bottle for the rinse solution with sodium nitrate solution. Place the storage bottle into the adapter of the device. Immerse the rinse tube (no. 1) in the rinse solution. } Fit the duplex columns with disposable tubes filled with 50 mg activated carbon. -
Page 16: Spe-Aox And Spe-Aof Sample Preparation
Operation APU sim } Empty the waste container. } Provide sodium nitrate solution as a rinsing solution. } Fit the duplex columns with disposable tubes filled with 50 mg activated carbon. Screw the duplex columns together. NOTICE! To avoid contamination, only insert tubes with tweezers and do not touch them by hand. - Page 17 APU sim Operation The SPE method separates organic compounds from the highly saline matrix in a first step by solid phase extraction. After elution with methanol, AOX or AOF enrichment takes place on activated carbon. Insoluble inorganic and organic halogen compounds and halogens adsorbed on solids are not detected by this method.

Air bubbles in the sample path could dry the cartridge. ¡ Therefore, make sure that no air bubbles form during sample extraction. Sample volume greater than Perform EOF sample preparation manually.
- Page 20 Operation APU sim Rinse cartridge } Immerse the transfer tubes in the rinse solution. } Rinse SPE cartridges with 50 ... 100 ml rinse solution to remove interfer- ing matrix components. Set the volume as the sample volume. The rinse volume remains at the value "0 ml". } Allow the SPE cartridge to dry for 20 min.
