Cells to be used Round cells – Outer diameter: 16 mm
– Inner diameter: 13.6 mm
– Flat cell bottom
Rectangular cells * – Path length: 10 mm, 20 mm and 50 mm
– Maximum width: 12.6 mm
Minimum filling level 20 mm
Minimum filling volume Round cell 16 mm: 4 ml
Rectangular cell, 10 mm: 2 ml
Rectangular cell, 20 mm: 4 ml
Rectangular cell, 50 mm: 10 ml
Cell recognition Automatic for most types
• Suitable are rectangular glass cells with opaque lateral surfaces (see section 8.1).
Plastic cells with clear or serrated lateral surfaces are not reliably recognized by the auto-
matic cell recognition.
Cells that are not recognized disturb the AutoCheck measurement and, as a consequence,
falsify measured values until the next AutoCheck is carried out.
Warm-up time At least 15 min for single measurements
2 h for kinetic measurements with the highest possible precision
FCC Class A Equipment Statement
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at his own expense.
