CHAPTER 5 LIQUID PATH
5.1 Function
1) Liquid path system is divided into two parts: sample aspirating and washing.
2) The part of aspirating sample consists of a aspirating probe, injection pump (500 ), solenoid valve and
stirrer, which provided by distilled water tank. It flow through solenoid valve and open to the 500
reagent injection pump then open to aspirating probe to wash the inner wall of probe.
3) The part of washing includes distilled water supply and waste solution drainage.
l Distilled water is draw to distilled water tank, then generate positive pressure. If the pressure is out of
the range that pressure switch provides, the pump and valve will be turned on to supply water.
l Drain waste solution pipeline is divided into two parts: motive power drainage and gravity drainage.
Aspirating probe washing pool and stirrer washing pool waste solution drainage, and reagent
condensated water drainage are gravity drainage that draw waste by it’s gravity. All waste solution
drainages are motive power drainage except washing pool in the instrument. Waste solution pump
generates motive power to make waste solution vacuum tank into vacuum negative pressure. All
pipelines are controlled by solenoid valve. When the pipline to draw waste solution into waste solution
negative pressure tank, the corresponding solenoid valve is turned on. Finally, waste pump drain the
waste solution from instrument.
4) Washing pool for washing the inner and outer walls of aspirating probe, and stirrer with distilled water,
then the waste will be draw into waste solution barrel.
5) Washing hand is to clean cuvettes automatically which composed of eight groups of probe, the front six
groups are doubleprobe, and the other two groups are signalprobe.
l The first group is detergent probe, the short probe is for injecting detergent controlled by individual
motive pump and valve, the long probe is for drawing waste solution to waste negative pressure tank by
vacuum pump.
l The groups of second to sixth are the distilled water probe. The long probes is for drawing waste
solution to waste pipe by vacuum pump; Five short probes is injecting distilled water, the motive power
is provided by water adding vacuum pump, a liquid separate box is used for separating distilled water
into five ways. Furthermore, a pump back system is setted for preventing liquid dropping from short
probes. A pump back solenoid valve control the system, both ends of solenoid valve connect with
distilled water injecting pipeline and waste solution negative pressure tank respectively. When the
solenoid valve is open, both ends is connected, the excess distilled water in probe will be draw by
negative pressure.
l The long probes of first to seventh groups drain distilled water and collect to a pipeline by a solenoid
valve.
l The eighth group is the drier probe which controlled by a individual solenoid valve.

6) Washing pool liquid path is divided into two paths and each of them controlled by a solenoid valve to
provide distilled water for washing pool to rinse aspirating probe and stirrer respectively. And all waste
will be collected to a pipeline and then flow to waste solution barrel by it’s own gravity.
7) There is an exhaust valve to keep the gas and liquid in distilled water tank balance, and drain excess
gas.
8) The waste solution from washing pool and condensated water from reagent tray are drained by it’s own
gravity.

6.5.8 Liquid Level Sensing Board
The liquid level sensing board consists of liquid level sensing part and anticollision optocoupler.
Liquid level sensing adopts capacitive level induction principle. Probes link to U2 (MC3394) by JP2, and U2
converts capititance changes into voltage changes, then feedback to U1 (MC9S08SH8) for processing.
Alarming of reagent allowance could be achieved by U1.
The anticollision optocoupler has no output voltage under normal condition. The optocoupler will get
through if probe collision. Pin 4 will feedback collision signal to drive board, then control signal will be sent
from drive board. Probe will uplift to the top automatically to protect probe.
Test voltage of test point by multimeter after connecting liquid level sensing line. See figure 619 and 620.

with water immediately.
9.1 Troubleshooting Guide
To eliminate malfunction easily and correctly, users should read through the Operating Manual and be
familiar with the routine operation and maintenance of URIT8021A .In general, there are three steps to
handle with malfunction:
Ø Step 1: Confirming Malfunction
Users should not only confirm the malfunction, but also clearly know what the normal status should be when
the malfunction is eliminated.
Ø Step 2: Classifying Malfunction
Malfunction can be categorized into three types.
l Malfunction relating to hardware
l Malfunction relating to software
l Malfunction relating to operation and analyses.
If malfunction relates to the hardware or software, contact your local distributor or URIT. If malfunction
relates to the operation and analyses, refer to the troubleshooting table below for solution.
Ø Step 3: Eliminating Malfunction
The maintenance engineer authorized by URIT takes proper measures to correct the problem.
Users can also eliminate the malfunction under the directions of maintenance engineer.

CHAPTER 10 Measurement Method
URIT8021A automatic chemistry analyzer is based on the Lambert’s Beer principle to analyse and
calculate. This chapter will mainly introduce the calculation method.
10.1 Method of Measurement
The URIT8021A performs measurement with the following methods:
1) Endpoint method
2) Twopoint end method
3) Twopoint rate method
4) Rate method(Kinetic method)
10.2 Endpoint
In the endpoint measurement, the reaction reaches equilibrium after a period time, it can be considerate that
all analytes(substrates) have changed into products. It’s best that the absorbance is directly proportion to the
analytes’ concentration.
Endpoint method (single reagent) reaction graph see as figure 101:

reaction time.

NOTE
When double reagents test use endpoint method, the result calculation is the same as the above
calculation formula that test point absorbance substracts R1 blank, then multiplied by K to get the
concentration.

10.5 Substrate Exhaust
In rate method and twopoint rate method appears substrate exhaust because the concentration of part of
sample is high. URIT8021A provides two methods to check of substrate exhaust, can be choose two or one.
But twopoint rate method only chooses the method of first substrate exhaust. The graph 105 is substrate
exhaust in the single reagent negative direction reaction.

10.5.1 Substrate Exhaust Method 1(Substrate exhaust Limit)
Make experiment to obtain the absorbance of substrate exhaust and set the limit. The average value of the
last three points in positive reaction is greater than the absorbance value of substrate exhaust limit. If the
average value smaller than the absorbance value in negative reaction, it could judge as substrate exhaust.
The red box in the figure 106 is the substrate exhaust setup.

10.5.2 Substrate Exhaust Method 2(Slope Ratio)
The second method of substrate exhaust is using the slope ratio of reaction curve (absorbance change rate)
to judge.
The meaning of each parameter:
First slope (First read point section): The slope in the first read point section that setted in the reagent
parameter.
Second slope (Second read point section): The slope in the second read point section that setted in the
substrate exhaust method 2.
Begin point: The begin read point of second slope ratio. It should be not greater than the begin read point of
first slope ratio. The begin point of single reagent is the point that start to add sample, and the double
reagents is the point that start to add second reagent
End point: The end read point of second slope ratio that less than the end read point of first slope.
Slope ratio: First slope/ second slope
When the calculated slope ratio is less than the set value, the system will judge for substrate exhaust. This
method can be used simultaneously with the method 1 or used alone. But twopoint rate method only use
method 1.
As long as choosing the substrate exhaust method 2, system will automatically take the second slope as the
calculated slope when the instrument judge for substrate exhaust. The result of the sample is: second
slope K.
Caution
The begin point of second slope is restricted by begin point of first slope. Begin point should be not
greater than the begin point of first slope, and end point not greater than the end point of first
slope.
