Measuring processes
The following pages describe the process that occurs within the analyzer during
sample introduction, rinse, calibration and quality controls. The various types of
sampling modes are discussed separately.
All processes refer to the wet section diagram earlier in this chapter.
General information
When the analyzer is in the Ready mode prior to a measurement, the sensor
cassette contains CAL 1 from the solution pack.
The sensor cassette measurement chamber and the cuvette in the hemolyzer
unit of the optical system is thermostatted to 37 °C to ensure correct measuring
conditions.
All necessary solutions contained in the solution pack are introduced
automatically as required into the sensor cassette and oximetry module via the
flow selector and inlet.
All waste liquids are transported to the waste pouch contained in the solution
pack. This includes blood sample waste.
