Calibrating the Flow Rate

When to Calibrate

If you run the ICS-2100 Operational Qualification or Performance
Qualification and it fails.

Items Needed

0.076-mm (0.003-in) ID yellow PEEK tubing (P/N 049715) to create
14 ± 2 MPa (2000 ± 300 psi) of backpressure (if needed)

High purity ASTM filtered, Type I (18 megohm-cm) deionized water

Balance capable of weighing more than 10 g with 0.001 g readability

Tared beaker

To Calibrate

1. Open the ICS-2100 Wellness Panel in Chromeleon (see

Section 5.1.1

), or open the ICS-2100 touch screen

FLOW RATE

page

(see

Figure 5-5

).

2. Verify that there is 14 ± 1.4 MPa (2000 ± 200 psi) of backpressure.
