5.2 Emptying the containers
5.2.1 Assembling the pump
During normal usage, the pipetting container and the evaporation trap container are filled with water. The pump
serves to remove the water in a safe and efficient manner, without having to disassemble the instrument. The
inlet tube has a probe attached for easier handling. The outlet tube serves to dispose of the aspirated liquid.
1 Install the cables in such a way that they cannot be
damaged or interfere with operation.
2 Insert the plug of the AC/DC adapter (1) into the power
socket.
3 Secure the plug by firmly tightening the knurled nut.
4 Insert the plug of the power cable into a grounded power
outlet that is easily accessible.
5 Connect the pump tube with the probe (2) to the nozzle
IN (3).
6 Connect the other pump tube to the nozzle OUT (4).
7 Place the free end of the tube into a container suitable for liquid waste (5).
5.2.2 Emptying the pipetting container
The pipetting container must be regularly emptied to prevent an overflow.
