Plumbing

Plumb the instrument


Explosion hazard. Make sure that the drain tube is free of all obstructions. If the drain tube has a blockage or is pinched or bent, high pressure can build up in the instrument.

burn hazardburn hazard
Personal injury hazard. The sample line contains water under high water pressure that can burn skin if hot. Qualified personnel must remove the water pressure and wear personal protective equipment during this procedure.

NOTICE
Do not let water get in the vial compartment or instrument damage will occur. Before the process head is installed on the instrument, make sure that there are no water leaks. Make sure that all tubing is fully seated. Make sure that the vial nut is tight. The full water pressure should be on the system, the water flow is on and no water leak on the glass vial is seen.

NOTICE
Hold the automatic cleaning module vertically when it is installed on the instrument or the vial can break. If the vial breaks, water will get in the vial compartment and instrument damage will occur.

NOTICE
Before the instrument is plumbed, make sure that the desiccant cartridge and vial are installed.

NOTICE
Based on the environmental conditions, is necessary to wait a minimum of 15 minutes to let the system become stable.

Items supplied by the user:

  • Flow shutoff valve
  • Tubing6
  • Tubing cutter

6 Refer to Specifications for the tubing requirements.

  1. Plumb the instrument. Refer to the illustrated steps that follow and Figure 6.
    Note: To plumb the instrument with accessories, refer to the documentation supplied with the accessories.

Plumbing the instrument - Step 1
Plumbing the instrument - Step 2

Set the flow rate

  1. Measure the flow with the flow regulator fully open. Make sure that the flow is in the middle of the flow specification. Refer to Specifications
  2. Slowly close the flow regulator until the flow decreases by 20 to 30%.
    Note: The flow regulator causes back pressure in the tubing and decreases the quantity of bubbles that can form in the vial.

User navigation

Refer to the controller documentation for keypad description and navigation information.
Push the RIGHT arrow key on the controller multiple times to show more information on the home screen and to show a graphical display.

Operation

Refer to the expanded user manual on the manufacturer's website to configure the instrument settings and to compare process and lab measurements.

Calibration


Chemical exposure hazard. Obey laboratory safety procedures and wear all of the personal protective equipment appropriate to the chemicals that are handled. Refer to the current safety data sheets (MSDS/SDS) for safety protocols.

The instrument is factory calibrated and the laser light source is stable. The manufacturer recommends that a calibration verification be done periodically to make sure that the system operates as intended. The manufacturer recommends calibration as local regulations require and after repairs or comprehensive maintenance work.

Use the optional calibration lid and a vial(s) with a StablCal standard or Formazin standard to calibrate the instrument. Refer to the Calibration lid documentation for more calibration procedures with and without RFID vials, 1-point and 2-point calibrations. As an alternative, use a syringe and StablCal standard or Formazin standard to calibrate the instrument.

Verification

Use the optional calibration lid and a sealed-vial 10-NTU StablCal standard (or a StablCal 10 NTU standard and a syringe) to do a primary calibration verification. As an alternative, use the optional calibration lid and the optional glass verification rod (< 0.1 NTU) to do a secondary calibration verification in the lower range of turbidity.

Maintenance


Burn hazard. Obey safe handling protocols during contact with hot liquids.


Multiple hazards. Only qualified personnel must conduct the tasks described in this section of the document.


Personal injury hazard. Never remove covers from the instrument. This is a laser-based instrument and the user risks injury if exposed to the laser.
