20120080094 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR FEEDING A PRESETTABLE MEASUREMENT QUANTITY OF A SAMPLE LIQUID - A method and device for feeding a presettable measurement quantity of a sample liquid from a liquid reservoir via a feed line through a switching valve into a temporary store in order subsequently, after actuation of the switching valve, to feed the sample liquid to an analytical measuring instrument where the sample liquid is conveyed into the temporary store until further conveying of the sample liquid is terminated and the switching valve is actuated by evaluation of a characteristic quantity, wherein a flow rate of the sample liquid is determined at a time at which a first proportion of the sample liquid has already flowed through the switching valve, and the switching valve is actuated as a function of the flow rate determined and a switching delay determined in advance. | 04-05-2012 |
