The invention relates to a method for supplying at least one analysis apparatus with at least one liquid. In the method, the liquid is kept available in a storage tank, from where it is transported into at least one buffer tank. The liquid is fed to the analysis apparatus from the buffer tank, whose filling level is monitored. Here, the buffer tank is arranged above the analysis apparatus and the storage tank is arranged below the analysis apparatus. The invention also relates to a device for carrying out this method as well as to an analysis apparatus in which this device is employed.

1. A method for supplying at least one analysis apparatus with at least one liquid, whereby the liquid is kept available in at least one storage tank, comprising transporting the at least one liquid from the at least one storage tank into at least one buffer tank, and in that the at least one liquid is fed from the at least one buffer tank- to the analysis apparatus, whereby the at least one buffer tank is arranged above the at least one analysis apparatus and the at least one storage tank is arranged below the at least one analysis apparatus, and monitoring the filling level of the at least one liquid in the at least one buffer tank visually or via a measuring instrument configured to monitor the filling level of the at least one liquid; whereinthe at least one storage tank is pressurized, whereby a gas is used for the pressurization, and the at least one liquid is transported from the at least one storage tank into the at least one buffer tank via a riser. 2. The method according to claim 1, whereinthe at least one liquid in the at least one buffer tank is made available to the at least one analysis apparatus without being pressurized. 3. The method according to claim 1, wherein,in order to monitor the filling level of the at least one liquid in the at least one buffer tank, the weight of the buffer tank is determined by a set of scales. 4. The method according to claim 1, whereinmeasured data about the at least one buffer tank is acquired and evaluated by an electronic unit, whereby this measured data constitutes the filling-level data about the at least one liquid in the at least one buffer tank. 5. The method according to claim 1, whereinthe electronic unit emits a signal when the filling level of the at least one liquid in the at least one buffer tank falls below a prescribed limit value, whereby this signal is considered as an indication that the at least one buffer tank needs to be filled. 6. The method according to claim 1, whereinthe at least one buffer tank is alternately supplied from one of at least two storage tanks. 7. The method according to claim 5, whereinthe at least one buffer tank is filled from one storage tank while a second storage tank is being replaced. 8. A device for supplying at least one analysis apparatus with at least one liquid, whereby the liquid is kept available in at least one storage tank being pressurized, whereby a gas is used for the pressurization, the device comprising at least one buffer tank, whereby the buffer tank is arranged above the at least one analysis apparatus and the at least one storage tank is arranged below the at least one analysis apparatus, and whereby the at least one liquid is transported from the at least one storage tank into the at least one buffer tank via a riser, and whereby the at least one liquid is fed from the at least one buffer tank to the at least one analysis apparatus, and the device further comprising a measuring instrument, whereby the measuring instrument is configured to monitor the filling level of the at least one liquid in the at least one buffer tank. 9. The device according claim 7, whereinthe measuring instrument for monitoring the filling level of the at least one liquid in the at least one buffer tank is configured as a set of scales. 10. The device according to claim 7, whereinthe measuring instrument is connected to an electronic unit for evaluating measured data, whereby this measured data constitutes filling-level data about the at least one liquid in the at least one buffer tank. 11. The device according to claim 7, whereinthe at least one buffer tank is configured as a closed tank that has at least one inlet and one outlet for the at least one liquid. 12. The device according to claim 7, whereinthe device has at least two storage tanks, whereby the at least one buffer tank can be filled alternately from one of the storage tanks. 13. An analysis apparatus, comprising at least one device according to claim 7 for supplying the analysis apparatus with at least one liquid.
