Abstract

The present disclosure includes an automatic analyzer and a method for the determination of a measurand dependent upon the concentration of one or more ingredients of a measuring fluid. The analyzer includes a measuring cell includes a cuvette and a sensing element, the sensing element including at least one radiation source and at least one detector configured to generate measurement signals, a control and evaluation unit that is connected to the sensing element to receive and process measurement signals of the sensing element, and a delivery and metering unit that can be controlled by the control and evaluation unit, where the control and evaluation unit is configured to control the delivery and metering unit to transport measuring fluid into the cuvette and to monitor the transport of the measuring fluid into the cuvette by means of the sensing element.
