Calibrating the Flow Rate
When to Calibrate
If you run the ICS-2100 Operational Qualification or Performance
Qualification and it fails.
Items Needed
•
0.076-mm (0.003-in) ID yellow PEEK tubing (P/N 049715) to create
14 ± 2 MPa (2000 ± 300 psi) of backpressure (if needed)
•
High purity ASTM filtered, Type I (18 megohm-cm) deionized water
•
Balance capable of weighing more than 10 g with 0.001 g readability
•
Tared beaker
To Calibrate
1. Open the ICS-2100 Wellness Panel in Chromeleon (see
), or open the ICS-2100 touch screen

(see
Figure 5-5
).
2. Verify that there is 14 ± 1.4 MPa (2000 ± 200 psi) of backpressure.
