to the detector.
•
Gas supply
•
Ventilation appliance
•
From the detector ship kit:
♦
Gas exhaust tubing
♦
Gas inlet tubing

If you wish to use a different gas inlet tubing with metric
dimensions: Inch-to-metric adapter
Tubing cutter (optional)
1. Observe the site requirements for the gas supply and the ventilation
(see
section 5.3, page
2. Check the gas tubes. Observe the following:
♦
Use only the gas tubes that are shipped with the detector as well
as additional or spare parts as recommended by Thermo Fisher
Scientific.
♦
The connectors must be free from contaminants. Even minute
particles may cause damage to the system or lead to invalid test
results.
♦
Do not install gas tubes or connection unions that are stressed,
nicked, kinked, or otherwise damaged.
1. Connect the gas inlet tubing to the gas supply and route it to the
detector.
2. Connect the gas exhaust tubing to the ventilation and route it to the
detector. Make sure that the exhaust gas is removed by a fume
hood or other proper ventilation appliance and does not vent
directly into the laboratory.
