2 Installation
The 817 Bioscan is an electrochemical detector and can be included in
a modular IC system in two different ways:
1) The 817 Bioscan as the only detector in an IC system.
Apart from the 709 IC Pump, you also require an 812 Valve Unit with
one injection valve. In this MIC-8 modular IC system the 817 Bioscan is
intended for the analysis of sugars only.
2) The 817 Bioscan is included in an IC system as the second
detector. An example of this is given in Section 2.5 where an IC system
(MIC-9) is described for the simultaneous determination of sugars and
anions with chemical suppression.
These modular IC system configurations (MIC-1, MIC-2, etc.) are pos-
sible instrument combinations that have been properly tested. Under
www.metrohm.com you will find further examples; these are continually
updated.
Following the general information about the installation of the
instruments, Sections 2.4 and 2.5 describe the two configurations
mentioned above including their control by the «IC Net 2.1» software.
2.1 Setting up the instrument
2.1.1 Packaging
The 817 Bioscan is supplied together with the separately packed
accessories in special packaging containing shock-absorbing foam
linings designed to provide excellent protection. The actual instruments
are packed in an evacuated polyethylene bag to prevent the ingress of
dust. Please store all this special packaging as only it can assure
transport of the instruments free from damage.
2.1.2 Check
After receipt, immediately check whether the shipment is complete and
has arrived without damage (compare with delivery note and list of
accessories in section 6.2). In the case of transport damage, see
instructions in section 6.3.1 "Warranty".
