Installing the Diluent Tubing
Attach a piece of silicon rubber diluent tubing (supplied with the
SIPS) between the barbed tube at the bottom of the T-piece (see
Figure 4) and the lid of the Mariotte vessel. Ensure the tubing is long
enough to avoid kinks or sharp bends.
Use one of the Mariotte vessels supplied with the SIPS. Do not use any other
NOTE
container as the Mariotte vessels have been designed to maintain a constant
pressure head. The use of any other diluent vessel may introduce dilution
errors.
Connecting the SIPS to the Nebulizer
Use a 15-mm piece of silicone tubing (1 mm ID) as supplied with the
SIPS, to connect the upper end of the T-piece to a length of capillary
tubing leading from the nebulizer (as shown in Figure 4). The length
of capillary used should be as short as possible. Ensure that there is
no gap between the two ends of the tubing.
Installing the SIPS Pump Tubing
Use only pump tubing supplied and recommended by Agilent. Only this tubing
CAUTION
will provide accurate performance.
New pump tubing must be conditioned after it has been installed. For details of
