Connecting The Drain System - Thermo Scientific Dionex UltiMate 3000 Series Operating Instructions Manual

♦ Conventional fitting connections (non-Viper)
Do not over-tighten these fitting connections. If you observe leakage on the
connection, tighten a little further.
If leakage still exists, first consider cleaning the connection port with a cleaning swab
(part no. 6040.0006). Replace the capillary and/or fitting if this does not eliminate the
problem.
Reuse used fittings and ferrules only for the same capillary connection. This is to
avoid increased dead volume or damage to the system and leakage

4.3 Connecting the Drain System

To discharge liquid leaks and waste, the detector has a drain port at the bottom right of the
instrument.
Drain port
Direct liquid leaks to waste via the drain system of the UltiMate 3000 system, using the
components from the drain kit. The kit is shipped with the UltiMate 3000 pumps and can
be ordered separately (part no. 6040.0005). The kit includes all required components and
detailed installation instructions. If there is more than one detector in your system and you
need an additional tee piece, you can find one in the accessories kit of the fluorescence,
multiple wavelength, or diode array detector.
