The sample reservoir in the flow cell, as shown in Figure IV-1, has two<br />

sample volumes: a normal operation volume of 20 mL and a highly<br />

accurate and individually calibrated flow cell volume of approximately<br />

95 mL. The lower volume results in fast system response while online, and<br />

the higher volume ensures accuracy in calibration.<br />

When the Thermo Scientific <strong>Orion</strong> <strong>2117HL</strong> chloride analyzer is first<br />

commissioned, it is advisable to flush out the fluidics system overnight<br />

prior to the initial calibration and use. The electronics need not be turned<br />

on at this time. Refer to Chapter IV, Rinsing the Flow Cell.<br />

• For accurate volume displacement install the chloride sensing<br />

electrode, reference electrode and ATC probe in their respective flow<br />

cell cap ports. Refer to Chapter II, Installation of a New <strong>Chloride</strong><br />

Electrode, Chapter II, Installation of the ATC probe and Chapter II,<br />

Installation of a New Reference Electrode.<br />

• Close the calibration port.<br />

• When rinsing the flow cell before a standard calibration, be sure to<br />

rinse off the inside of the reservoir lid with deionized water to prevent<br />

buildup of chloride contamination along the lid.<br />

• To ensure that the analyzer achieves stability and minimizes interference<br />

during calibration, the operator should minimize activity on the system<br />

during calibration.<br />
