4. Finger-tighten the nut onto the threaded bulkhead fitting.
This will seat the ferrule in the fitting.
Note
When using higher-density solvents such as dichloromethane
(DCM), place the solvent container level with or above the
CombiFlash Rf system. Placing solvent containers below the level
of the system can contribute to decreased flow due to the high
vapor pressure of DCM. This problem becomes more pronounced
as the ambient temperature increases.

2.5 Connect Waste Lines (Excludes EZ Prep)

Risk of fire or equipment damage. Failure to connect Waste
Port tubing may allow organic solvents to pool in unsafe areas,
possibly creating dangerous levels of flammable vapors.
Risk of fire ignited by electrostatic discharges. Never
substitute the black tubing on CombiFlash systems. The black
tubing (P/N 023-0503-06) is conductive. This tubing is required
to dissipate static electricity.
Elevated flammable vapor levels are possible. Ensure that the
waste container is adequately ventilated, preferably by placing it in
a fume hood.
The system has two waste outlets on the back panel: Diverter
Valve waste and Inject Valve waste. You can route waste to a
common collection container, or to individual containers.
The Waste Level Sense uses air pressure to detect the liquid
level in the common waste container. If using individual
containers, use the waste level sense to detect the level of the
Diverter Valve waste container. Under normal operating
conditions it will fill faster than the Inject Valve waste
container. Empty both containers at the same time to prevent
overfilling the unmonitored container.
