Always stop analysis before opening the IOS System door to avoid generating erroneous
measurement data. If the flow sensor is On, opening the IOS System door while analysis is taking
place causes the flow sensor to activate and halt analysis. If the flow sensor is Off, opening the IOS
System door while analysis is taking place results in air being drawn into the Analyzer.
Warning
The IOS System contains two sharp needles designed to pierce the
septa of sample vials. Do not put fingers or inappropriate materials
into the IOS System.
Warning
Water in the IOS System may be hot. Before inserting a vial into the
IOS System, slide the door open and wait 30 seconds to allow sample
to completely drain. Inserting a vial before draining can result in
potentially hot water spray projecting upward out of the IOS System.
