ANALYZER HAVING HUMIDITY CONTROL APPARATUS

摘要

ANALYZER HAVING HUMIDITY CONTROL APPARATUS There is described an analyzer for determining analytes of a body liquid, in which stacks of test elements are stored prior to use. To control the level of humidity in which the stacks are stored, first and second compartments are provided with access openings connecting them to the stack-storage area. Means are provided for selectively closing off and opening up the access openings, and for actively forcing air to flow from either of the compartments into the storage area. One of the compartments has water-addition means, and the other has water-deletion means.
