Volume Calibration Tab
The Volume Calibration tab allows for the calibration of the timed delivery of reagents to
the reaction vessel. Reagent calibration should be performed monthly as part of routine
maintenance.
In addition, the Volume Calibration tab allows for the calibration of amino acids at large scale.
For additions of more than 11 mL, the Liberty switches from a sample loop to a timed addition to
reduce the time required for each addition.
Performing a Volume Calibration
Place the reaction vessel into the 1. volume calibration stand (PN 576250).
Remove the 1.1. reaction vessel assembly from the cavity of the Discover.
Set the volume calibration stand on top of the cavity opening, with the 1.2.
graduations on the right.
NOTE
For detailed instructions on performing a volume calibration, see the Liberty
Maintenance Procedures manual, PN 600119.
