Drop Collection Mode

The fraction collector counts drops at flow rates up to ~5 ml/min. Drop
counting is performed by the sensor in the drop arm. If the flow rate exceeds
5 ml/ min., counting will not be accurate, and use of the Time mode is
recommended.

Plug the Model 2110 Fraction Collector into a
grounded wall outlet. The collector will power
up in the Stop, or Standby mode, with the
LED lit.

Press the Time/Drop key until the

LED is

lit.

Select the number of drops to be collected per
collection tube by pressing the

keys.

The LED display will display the number of
drops to be collected.

Insure that the carousel is in the desired posi-
tion, and press the Run/Stop key to begin col-
lection. The

LED will be lit.

The fraction collector will reset the display to
‘0’ and begin counting drops up to the drop
limit set, and then advance. The display reads
‘A’ during each carousel advance.
