Preparing the Sample

Open a reaction vial with a white cap and add the specified volume.
(Ensure that appropriate personnel safety equipment is used.)
LR-/MR: 2 ml water sample

Prepare a blank (Note 1) by using deionised water (TOC-free) instead of the sample
(LR/MR: 2 ml, HR: 0.2 ml).
Replace the cap tightly. Invert the vial gently several times to mix the contents (The vial
will become hot during mixing!) and digest the vials for 120 minutes in the reactor at
a temperature of 150 °C. Remove the vials from the reactor and allow them to cool down
to 60°C or less. Mix the contents by inverting each vial several times while still warm. Then
allow the vials to cool to ambient temperature before measuring.
