ABSTRACT:
An automatic chemical analyzer includes containers for chemical reagents, a standard (full scale) solution and a baseline solution. An overflow sampler provides a test sample having a chemical concentration to be measured. Computer controlled valve means connect either the baseline solution, standard solution or test sample to an output tube, and a peristaltic pump couples the reagents and the liquid in the output tube to a chemical module where the chemical reaction takes place. The output of the chemical module is coupled to a flow cell in the form of a stream of liquid segments separated by air bubbles. Light at a selected optical frequency is passed directly through the flow cell to a photodetector the output of which is converted to digital form by a computer which stores baseline and full scale values corresponding to the color values of the liquids in the baseline and standard containers. To ensure accurate calibration, baseline values are determined separately for baseline solutions without color reagent and baseline solutions with color reagent.
