x Before rinsing the cell, please finish all tubing connections as
described in the following sections.
x Every time the filtration membrane is changed, the remaining
air in the cell and tubings has to be removed. This can be
done by rinsing with ultrapure water.
x A completely installed 788 IC Filtration Sample Processor with
ultra-filtration cell is required for processing the following
steps. The rinsing solution (e.g. ultrapure water) is stored in a
300 mL PE bottle on the special beaker position 1. The 788 IC
Filtration Sample Processor is online and in normal state. The
pump is switched of (display: 'PUMP–') and the 788 is ready
for use (display: 'ready').
