Reassemble the optical bench by the reversing the above steps.
During reassembly, make sure that both the sample cell and IR source are
fully seated in the connecting couplers.
WARNING: After servicing any part of the sample circuit, upon reassembly, a
leak check of the sample cell and tubing is required.
6.2.2 Cleaning the Sample Cell
WARNING: The sample cell is a glass tube (Metal Optional) which can be
broken if excessive force is applied to it. The fragments of a broken
sample cell are sharp and can cause serious injury. Use caution
when handling the cell.

pulling and twisting motion. The cell is held in place with 2 O-
rings. Unless the coupling between the cell and detector is
dismantled, the O-rings should not pull out with the sample
cell.
During reassembly, make sure that the O-rings are not cut or
damaged as the cell is inserted. Make sure that the cell reseats
firmly within the O-rings.
If the instrument is designed for high percentage analysis and there is
no gold colored Sample cell visible, then skip this step and go to Step

cell pressure plate. They should not pull out when removing
the sample cell.
During reassembly, make sure that the O-rings are not cut or
