During the measurement, the high temperature sample liquid S containing bubbles sucked up from the sample tank 1 by the suction pump 2 is introduced from the upstream sampling line 10a to the reflux line 12 via the circulation line 13 and the sample. The flow path switching unit 5 is operated so that the flow can be returned to the tank 1. That is,
By providing the circulation line 13, it is possible to constantly circulate between the sample liquid analyzer main body case 3 and the sample tank 1 during the measurement without stopping all the sample liquid S during the measurement. Therefore, although measurements of the present invention is a batch-type, only by operating the passage switching section 5 switches the flow of the sample liquid S from the circulation line 13 downstream of the sampling line 10b, the upstream sampling line 10a From the sample tank 1 of the sample liquid analyzer main body case 3 with a new sample liquid S of high temperature corresponding to the measured amount.
Therefore, it can be newly introduced into the heat exchange section 11 of the sampling line 10b on the downstream side in a short time. Then, the sampling line 10b on the downstream side is provided for the next measurement.
The sample liquid S previously introduced into the heat exchange section 11 can be efficiently cooled in a stopped state during measurement. For example, in this embodiment, the sample liquid S previously introduced into the heat exchange section 11 is air-cooled while being stopped by the exhaust fan 4. Then, on measurement of the present invention is a batch type, uses a chemical as a sample liquid S, the measurement of even one measurement, for example, several tens of seconds in order to perform the multivariate analysis with a spectrometer, etc. It takes time, and it is necessary to stop the sample solution S for measurement for stable measurement. That is, since the measurement time is long, the cooling time can be extended correspondingly, and the sample solution S for the next measurement is stopped in the heat exchange section 11.
This can be efficiently air-cooled at the stage of introduction into the heat exchange section 11. Further, the sample solution S discharged from the flow cell 6 is returned from the discharge line 14 to the sample tank 1 via the reflux line 12.

By the way, in the present invention, in the sampling lines 10a and 10b from the sample tank 1 to the flow cell 6, the flow path switching section 5 is provided on the upstream side, the heat exchange section 11 is provided on the downstream side, and the heat exchange section 11 is provided. A circulation line 13 that connects the reflux line 12 and the switching unit 5 is provided immediately upstream of the flow cell 6; however, even if a circulation line having the same configuration is used to perform analysis measurement in a batch system, for example, An analyzer with a cooling device in which the flow path switching unit is arranged immediately upstream of the flow cell 6 and the heat exchange unit is provided upstream of the flow path switching unit is also conceivable. However, this comparative example has the same function as that of the present invention that the sample solution from the sample tank at a distant place can be introduced to the analyzer as soon as possible, but the heat exchange section is more effective than the flow path switching section. Since it is located upstream, during measurement, the sample solution from the sample tank passes through the heat exchange section and is further circulated from the circulation line to the reflux line to the sample tank. That is, in this comparative example , it is necessary to cool the high temperature sample liquid having thermal energy at all times by the cooling means in the heat exchange section. Therefore, in the comparative example , there are drawbacks that the sample liquid cannot be cooled sufficiently and that a large heat exchanger and a large cooling means are required. Furthermore, in the comparative example , in addition to the high cost, the use of a large heat exchanger or the like causes the piping capacity to be extremely large, which results in poor responsiveness. . As a result, in this comparative example, it is not possible to obtain a compact and inexpensive analyzer with a cooling device.

On the other hand, in the present invention, since the heat exchange section 11 is arranged between the flow path switching section 5 and the flow cell 6, that is, immediately upstream of the flow cell 6, extra cooling as in the comparative example is unnecessary. Thus, the amount of the sample liquid to be cooled can be remarkably reduced as compared with the case of the comparative example, and only the amount of the new sample liquid S corresponding to the measured amount can be efficiently maintained in the stopped state instead of the moving state as in the comparative example. Can be cooled to. Therefore, the pipe capacity including the heat exchange section 11 can be made extremely smaller than that in the case of the comparative example, the response can be improved, and a compact and inexpensive analyzer with a cooling device can be obtained.

During the measurement, the flow path switching unit 5 is line 1
It is switched to the 3 side, and the high temperature sample liquid S mixed with bubbles circulates through the lines 10a, 13 and 12.

When the measurement is completed, the sample solution S is discharged from the flow cell 6 and the flow path switching unit 5 is connected to the line 13.
From the side to the line 10b side. In this case, while the sample solution S air-cooled in the heat exchange section 11 is introduced into the flow cell 6, a high temperature sample solution S in an amount corresponding to the measured amount is introduced from the line 10a into the heat exchange section of the downstream sampling line 10b. 11 is newly introduced from the sample tank 1 in a short time.

Then, after a lapse of a certain time from the switching operation to the line 13 side, the flow path switching section 5 is switched from the line 10b side to the line 13 side to start the measurement, and the sample of the heat exchange section 11 is started. The liquid S is efficiently air-cooled by the exhaust fan 4 for a time corresponding to the measurement time in the stopped state, and preparation for the next measurement is performed.

In this way, only the sample liquid S for the next measurement is introduced from the upstream sampling line 10a into the heat exchange section 11 and air-cooled in a stopped state. Therefore, it is possible to efficiently introduce the sample liquid S, which has been cooled by air, with very few bubbles into the flow cell 6.

As described above, in this embodiment, the cooling device for the sample liquid can be provided at an extremely low cost without making a great improvement by utilizing the exhaust fan 4 for air cooling the sample liquid S. Therefore, it is not necessary to install a relatively large and expensive cooling device or temperature control device,
Space saving can be achieved, high temperature sample liquid can be directly introduced into the analyzer to obtain highly reliable measurement values, and sample liquid in a wide temperature range from low temperature to high temperature can be measured. Become. Further, since external piping for cooling the same is not required, the cause of trouble such as liquid leakage is reduced. Since the sample liquid itself is cooled in the initial stage of the introduction of the sample liquid, the loosening of the pipe due to the temperature change inside the analyzer is reduced and the liquid leakage is also reduced.
