2.9 Install Collection Tube Racks

Before beginning a run, you must load collection racks with
tubes onto the system's fraction collector tray.
Your system was shipped with two collection tube racks. The
following tube rack sets are available:
• 60-5237-031 – Two racks for 16×125 mm test tubes
(15.5 mL). Total tubes: 150.
• 60-5237-032 – Two racks for 16×150/160 mm test
tubes (18 mL). Total tubes: 150.
• 60-5237-033 – Two racks for 18×150 mm test tubes
(25 mL). Total tubes: 140.
• 60-5237-034 – Two racks for 18×180 mm test tubes
(30 mL). Total tubes: 140.
• 60-5237-035 – Two racks for 25×150 mm vials
(50 mL). Total vials: 60.
• 60-5237-040 – One rack for 500 mL French square
bottles.
To load the racks:
1. Insert test tubes, vials, or bottles into the rack (Fig. 2-5).
Risk of broken glass or equipment damage. Do not load test tubes
longer than the length listed on the tube size label.
2. While holding the rack with the tube size label visible
(Figure 2-6), insert the racks into the system. Slide the
rack in until you feel it drop into its seated position.
An incorrectly installed rack will cause the rack to be misaligned
under the fraction collector arm. Misaligned racks might cause
fractions to miss the tube opening or deposit in the wrong tube.
Always ensure the tube size label is visible (that is, facing outward)
and the rack is pushed in until it is seated.
