8. Calibration
Calibration should take place at 20-25℃, kept constant within

29
±0.5℃. A dedicated calibration software will write calibration
values in your dTrite, after the distilled water has been
repeatedly weighed up at least five times.

Hardware needed:：
●Electronic balance with readability of 0.01 mg
●Distilled water
●X86-or X64-architectured PC with pre-loaded Windows
(XP/Vista / 7/8/10 )operating system

Software needed:
● Dedicated calibration software of dTrite
(For more information, please contact with your nearest
distributor.)

CAUTION:

If your dTrite can not work properly after calibration,

please contact your nearest distributor for assistance.

9. Cleaning and Maintenance

CAUTION: dTrite cannot be autoclaved.

30
9.1 Cleaning the Outer Surface

The outer surface of your dTrite is made of ABS, ideal for easy
cleaning with simply clean water.

9.2 Cleaning the Barrel

dTrite barrel cleaning is repeatedly inhale row clear water for

cleaning.
Aspiration and dispensing at least 5 times, according to user's
actual situation to increase or decrease.
To ensure emptying remained in the barrel, the operation
reference “liquid emptying”

Step - 1: Turn Return Valve to direction①, long press Pre-filling

button make the piston stop at the barrel bottom

31

Step - 2: Press Filling and Dispensing button to aspiration and
dispensing simply clean water at least 5 times.
Step - 3: long press Pre-filling button make the piston stop at
the barrel bottom.
Step - 4: Ensure that into the tube is not submerged in a
liquid, Press filling button make piston run to the top of the
barrel.
Step - 5: Turn Return Valve to direction②, press Dispensing
button make piston run to the bottom of the barrel.
Step - 6: Cleaning work is finish,Turn Return Valve to
direction①

CAUTION: User is not recommended to remove and

32
cleaning of dTrite barrel, if the barrel cleaning operation fail to
meet the cleaning requirements of users. please contact the
dealer or manufacturer professional services personnel for
cleaning.
Ensure dTrite empty without liquid residue before delivery to service
personnel and inform details of last liquid handling.

9.3 Filling and Dispensing valve Replacement

Use the Installation tools to disassemble the old valve, replace the

33
new valve to the same position.
Valve has no fixed replacement cycle, problems after the
replacement.
The issue that could be has involvement with valve, please checking
the “Trouble Shooting”

13. Limitations and Compatibility

It is recommended to confirm reagent’s compatibility with this

38
instrument when applied for special purposes, trace analysis for
example.

–The liquid-path construction of your dTrite is made of

borosilicate glass, FEP and PTFE. Do not apply it in handling
liquids like hydrofluoric acid.
– The instrument would be clogged or damaged by solid
particles in turbid liquid like activated carbon.
– The plastic parts of your dTrite would be in swelling condition if
concentrated acid and alkaline, and methylbenzene, benzene
and other nonpolar organic solvents are put into use.
– Keep your dTrite away from the highly combustible carbon
disulfide.
– dTrite cannot be autoclaved.
– Do not put your dTrite in contact with corrosive gas like HCL
smog.
