4.6 Performing a pipetting cycle
To calibrate the pipette, distilled water must be used. The volume of the liquid is checked by gravimetric testing.
4.6.1 Filling the evaporation trap container
The evaporation trap includes a container that should be filled with water. When the evaporation trap is closed,
the humidity inside increases until the air is saturated. This prevents evaporation of the liquid in the pipetting
container and ensures accurate weighing results.
1 Remove the evaporation trap door (1).
2 Carefully remove the evaporation trap cover (2).
3 Fill the evaporation trap container (3) with distilled water.
The evaporation trap container is at least half full
(maximum 70 ml).
4 Reassemble the balance.
The evaporation trap door (1) is closed.
5 Wait at least 120 minutes to allow the air in the evapo-
ration trap to reach saturation.
