Practical accessory for robotic sample processors can help avoid annoying and costly errors in the lab, such as failure to empty waste containers or failure to refill electrode rinsing solution
Has this already happened to you? You forgot to empty a waste container before you went home and the next morning the laboratory was flooded.
Or maybe you once forgot to refill the electrode rinsing solution? Pumps that have run dry, inadequate rinsing of the electrodes after a titration because there was no more rinsing solution, or overflowing containers are not just annoying but simply unpardonable, says Metrohm.
Whole series of precious samples can be wasted, and analytical runs have to be repeated, which result in a massive loss of time and high costs.
Metrohm's 849 level control may provide help here.
This practical accessory for the company's robotic sample processors offers connection of up to four sensors, free programmability, logical or function, and control via remote lines.
The level sensor is screwed directly onto the rinsing or waste container and connected to the 849 level control.
A corresponding query in the method sequence makes the system waterproof in the true sense of the word, says the company.
The logical or function allows the flexible scanning of the system status.
If the waste container is full or the rinsing container empty then the system will be stopped.
Up to four level sensors can be connected to the 849 level controller.
Two measuring inputs monitor the levels in the waste containers to prevent overflow, two further inputs check whether the rinsing containers still contain sufficient liquid.
