Measuring cells
After test selection a blue illuminated LED shows the reading cell that must be used for
chosen test. Automatically the cell will be checked, if it fails the operator will be warned
and the specic test is inhibited for further use. As a new innovation every measuring
cell is equipped with an Insertion Tube Sensor at the button to control whether a cell
is occupied by a cuvette or not. (see
chapter 3.7.10)
During reading don’t touch cuvette or
other parts and avoid any vibrations!
