Operation
After calibration with an appropriate standard, the single injection of sample is all that is needed to obtain a result and prepare the analyser for the next analysis.
Sample injection via an accurate positive displacement pipette triggers the complete analytical cycle and a hard-copy result is printed within 25 seconds.
