METTLER TOLEDO DL36 17
8. Setup
Under this key you call up menus and functions which support the method and allow
selection of the peripheral devices.
When you press the key, the following appears
Setup[1-8]? When you enter one of the numbers and confirm with Enter,
you can define or select the following parameters:
1: Reagent capacity
2: Date & time
3: User identification (User ID)
4: Instrument identification (Instr ID)
5: Peripheral devices (Option)
6: Weight entry (Wt. entry)
7: Entry of the sample identification (ID entry)
8: Initialize default parameters (Memory clear).
Press the Print key if you wish to print out the stored data of the menus.
8.1 Checking the reagent capacity
The catholyte and anolyte solutions have a limited capacity for the moisture determination:
The capacity limit of
• 100 mL anolyte is reached after the determination of approx. 1000 mg H
2
O.
• 5 mL catholyte is reached after the determination of approx. 300 mg H
2
O (see specifica-
tions of the reagents).
Exhausted reagents result in values of the moisture content which are too low and lead to
longer titration times.
The DL36 calculates and sums the amount of moisture in mg which has been determined
with anolyte and catholyte and displays these values. You can
• reset these values following reagent change,
• enter limit values for the capacity and
• have the DL36 inform you when these limit values are exceeded.
