Patent ID: 10809325

Abstract:
A system including an NMR spectrometer (1) with a flow cell (2) analyzing a first liquid test sample (P1), a distributing device (3) with a multi-way valve, plural assemblies interconnected via fluid lines through the distributing device, a cannula (5) taking test samples from a storage vessel (5a), a sample loop (6) temporarily storing a further test sample (P2), and a pump device (7) pumping liquid (S) into the system. The valve arrangement a) decouples the sample loop with the temporarily stored further test sample and, simultaneously, b) decouples the flow cell with the first test sample from all fluid lines to the distributing device; and c) connects the cannula to the pump device for a simultaneous purging step or to the flow cell for removing the first test sample into a receiving vessel (5b; 5c) or to the sample loop for receiving a subsequent test sample.
