This morning I was showed the results from the TSS samples I tested on last Thursday. From this, we learned that the lab duplicate that I made and tested had failed but was very close to passing. I was informed that it wasn’t how I did it and that it would have just been something in the water that caused a bigger difference in weight; for example, a small stick.
Then I was put to work in the lab. I threw out the old filter sheets, ordered the tins they were in, put them in the right spot in the drawer, took out 60 of those tins, then got 60 new filters. With those new filters, I washed them with deionized water and put them in the tins.
Once they were all put into the tins they were placed in the oven to get dried before they can get weighed before they can get used.
Once the filter sheets came out I weighed and recorded them on a data sheet.
To finish off the day, I worked with four SRP samples and the quAAtro machine. My results will come out tomorrow.
