A sample probe or a syringe, both of which are supplied with the analyser, is used to introduce the sample. When the probe is used an in-built pump, activated from the front panel, draws the sample through the probe into the analyser. The pumped volume is adjustable allowing measurements from different pack sizes. Once a measurement is made the result is shown and held on a large 3½ digit display.
