    ATTENTION Use the MESYS XL module only with one of the exclusive syringes especially developed for it by cetoni GmbH. EPDM is used as the default sealing material in MESYS XL-compatible syringes. Additional replacement seals plus seals made from FKM and NBR are supplied with every module.
  • Page 27: Mounting Of Syringes

    procedure to configure syringes is described in detail in the accompanying software manual; please proceed as described therein. The data and values that you require for syringe configuration are listed in the table below. Additionally, both nominal, or scale volume and nominal, or scale pass length are indicated on every syringe.
  • Page 28 CAUTION Carry out a reference move before mounting a syringe. This ensures optimal use of the syringe volume and avoids potential damages to syringe and module. Now, use the software to move the piston holder to a position appropriate for mounting the syringe. Next, remove the safety cover by pulling at its distant end (as shown in the picture below) until the cover is released.
  • Page 29 3. All XL syringes feature a 24 mm hex nut directly at the screw-in thread. Use a 24 mm wrench to tighten the syringe fit by half to three quarters of a turn. To re-mount a syringe, first hand-tight fit the syringe to the holder. Using the wrench, an additional one quarter turn should suffice to ensure leak- tightness of the connection.
  • Page 30: Disassembly & Maintenance Of Syringes

    CAUTION When used over extended periods of time, the syringe may display wear. Please check the condition of the syringe regularly and exchange as required. CAUTION Please ensure that the device has been switched off using the software prior to mounting or exchanging syringes. 5.1.3.
