General information
6.1.1
Care
In contrast to the dosing units, the 800 Dosino requires no special care.
Take care to ensure however that it not exposed to any excessive contam-
ination nor to any corrosive influences. These could under certain circum-
stances result in functional disruptions and a reduction in the service life of
the inherently sturdy mechanics and electronics.
Caution
The dosing units must be monitored regularly and cleaned from time to
time.
Monthly inspections are called for in the event that alkali, corrosive or
high-concentration reagents are used. If non-problematic reagents are
used, then the inspection intervals can be extended to between six and
twelve months.
Warning
If aggressive reagents are used for dosing, and if the dosing unit is not
being used, then it should be rinsed with an inert solvent and then
emptied afterwards. Remove the dosing drive in the event of prolonged
periods of disuse (longer than one week).
Caution
Although this is extensively prevented by design measures, the mains
plug should be unplugged immediately if aggressive media has penetra-
ted the inside of the instrument, so as to avoid serious damage to the
instrument electronics. In such cases, the Metrohm Service must be
informed.
