Step 9

Flush the Analyzer

Before placing the Analyzer into normal operation, you should

perform a reagent ush to remove any gas bubbles that may

have formed in the reagent lines; you should then leave the
Analyzer powered on for 12 hours to allow the DI water reservoir
to properly complete rinse down action.

Step 7

Connect the inlet system and waste outlet.

1. Connect the 1/4” Teon tubing with the capsule or inline
lter to the sample inlet on the iOS System. Tighten 1/4 turn
past nger-tight with a 9/16” open-end wrench. Do not over-

tighten the nut.*

* For raw water and heavy particulates applications, additional

pre-ltration is required. Please contact GE Analytical Instruments

if you need recommendations.

2. Connect the 3/4” OD waste line tubing to the waste outlet on

the iOS System by sliding the tubing over the barb tting.

settings. Some of these settings will not need to be changed again,
unless yo u move the Analyzer or recongure the operational environ­ment. Refer to the 900 or 5310 C On-Line Operation and Maintenance
Manual for complete details.

Step 8 B

Enable password protection.

Set the clock and time zone.

Step 8 D

Name the Analyzer location (optional).

Step 8 E

Set reagent expiration dates.

Step 8 F

Set up the data history.

Step 8 G

Set up the printer (pptional).

Step 8 H

Export or print constants.

Step 8 A

Power the Analyzer on.

Step 8 I

Set up data I/O.

Where to Find Operation and Maintenance Manuals

Sievers 900 and 5310 C Series On-Line TOC Analyzer Installation Instructions

To avoid exposure to the chemical reagents, wear

acid-resistant gloves, protective clothing, and safety
goggles or a face shield when changing the reagent
supplies.

Reagent containers are for single-use only –
DO NOT REFILL. Relling or reusing reagent containers

will void all Analyzer and parts warranties and nullify
any performance claims.

Operation of the Analyzer without the in-line lter

on the sample inlet line will damage the Analyzer
and void the warranty. To avoid damaging the

Analyzer, install the lter and replace the lter

element as needed.

See the separate “Warnings” document for
additional important information.

Step 1

Unpack and inspect the Analyzer.

Step 2

Complete the identication records.

Step 3

Select a location for the Analyzer. Refer to the System

Specications chart.

WARNINGS

To avoid false TOC readings and possible damage to

the Analyzer, always make sure the sample is owing

through the iOS System and the DI water reservoir is

lled before starting analysis.

Figure 1 - Reagent cartridges

NOTE: Hazardous reagents (ammonium persulfate

and phosphoric acid) are used in the Analyzer.
Before installing the reagents, please read the
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) contained in
a pouch on the top of the reagent shipping box
for proper handling precautions and spill or leak
procedures.

Step 5

Fill the DI water reservoir.

1. Remove the rubber inlet cover on the DI water reservoir.

2. Slide the bottle nozzle into the inlet hole, and gently squeeze the

bottle. Be sure to ll the reservoir until the water reaches the ll

line, just below the inlet.

Step 4

Install the reagent cartridges. (See Figure 1.)

The oxidizer and acid reagents are shipped from GE Analytical

Instruments in specic packaging for safety in transit. Carefully

read the attached MSDS sheets prior to opening the packaging.
Within the packaging are two reagent cartridges. Each reagent

cartridge is identied with labels that indicate which cartridge

contains ammonium persulfate and which cartridge contains
phosphoric acid.

1. Locate the acid supply line, indicated by the Acid label. Attach

the PEEK nut to the acid reagent container and tighten nger-

tight.

2. Slide the valve on the acid container to the open position by
pushing the green button all the way in. Refer to the labeling on
the container for proper positioning.

Step 6

Install accessories and cables.

If you will be using a 900 ICR unit with your conguration, make

sure it is installed. Follow the complete set of operation instructions
in the ICR Operation and Maintenance Manual. (See downloading
instructions on the back page of this Quick Start Guide.)

Step 6 A

Install the 900 Inorganic Carbon Remover (ICR).

Installation of the Sievers 900/5310 C On-Line TOC Analyzer requires an
external source of AC power connected to the enclosure using a water­tight conduit connector. The electrical connection should be performed
by a qualied electrician. An external switch or circuit breaker is recom­mended to facilitate maintenance and servicing of the Analyzer. It should
be installed near the Analyzer and be clearly marked as the disconnecting
device for the Analyzer. (See Figure 2.)

NOTE: Before installing any wiring inside the Analyzer, put on a
grounding strap for ESD protection.

Step 6 B

Connect to a power supply.

The Analyzer has three terminal blocks, arranged horizontally
in the electrical enclosure inside the Analyzer; remove the
enclosure cover by loosening the front screws. Consult Tables
1–3 for a list of functions on each terminal block. The output

and alarm connections should be installed by a qualied

electrician. Refer to the 900 or 5310 C On-Line Operations and
Maintenance Manual for complete details.

Step 6 C

Install the analog outputs and alarms.

3. Slide the acid container into the reagent enclosure, with the
valve pointing down and toward the front of the reagent
enclosure.

4. Locate the oxidizer supply line, indicated by the Oxidizer
label. Attach the PEEK nut to the oxidizer container and

tighten nger-tight.

5. Slide the valve on the oxidizer container to the open
position by pushing the green button all the way in. Refer
to the labeling on the container for proper positioning.

6. Slide the oxidizer container into the reagent enclosure, with
the valve pointing down and toward the front of the reagent
enclosure.
