To avoid damaging electrical parts, do not disconnect an electrical assembly while power is supplied to the TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system. After the power is turned off, wait approximately 30 seconds before you disconnect an assembly.
There is danger of crushing to fingers and hands. To avoid injury keep your hands away from moving parts during operation. Turn off the power to the TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system if you must reach inside a mechanically powered system with moving parts.
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). Use personal protective equipment according to the safety requirements. The TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system requires the use of several chemical products with different hazard characteristics, which are present in vials and syringes. Before using these substances or replacing the syringe, please read the hazard indications and information reported in the MSDS supplied by the manufacturer referring to the relevant CAS number.

You may find all the instruction in the Preinstallation Requirements Guide of your GC-GC/MS system. The TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system operates reliably under controlled environment conditions. Operating or maintaining a system outside the specifications outlined in this guide might cause many different types of system failures.
(*) Including pallet Space and Load Requirements TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system must be installed on the left of the GC-GC/MS units. Use the following tables to verify and determine the space and mass requirements for the instrument of your GC-GC/MS system.
GC-GC/MS System + TriPlus 300 Headspace Configuration Space and Mass Requirements TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system must o be installed on the left of the GC-GC/MS system. The maximum distance from the GC-GC/MS system must considers the length of the transfer line that connects the TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system to the GC injector.
• 5 cm between a GC and a DSQ II mass spectrometer A distance of about 3/5 cm between the GC-GC/MS system and the TriPlus 300 is left for opening the top cover of the Main through the two lateral push-buttons.
Poor grounding represents a danger for the operator and might seriously affect the instrument performance. Do not connect the TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system to lines feeding devices of a heavy-duty nature, such as motors, UV lamps, refrigerators, air compressors, and other devices that can generate disturbances.
The operating environment in your laboratory is affected by such factors as temperature, humidity, particulate matter, and electrostatic discharge. It is your responsibility to provide an acceptable operating environment for your TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system. Attention to the operating environment will ensure continued high performance of your TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system.
You will need a supply of ultra-high purity GC gases. The TriPlus 300 Headspace sampling system requires auxiliary gases for all the operating processes, and receives the carrier gas from the GC unit used to transfer the sample to the injector.
