cord can be unplugged, or use a power strip where the plug
can quickly be removed from the outlet in the event of an
emergency.
When you first place the system in S
nents continue to operate for almost one minute while per-
forming file maintenance and preparing the system for possible
power removal.
Removing the AC mains power cord before the file mainte-
nance is complete might corrupt files on the internal hard drive.
These corrupted files can cause abnormal operation or a com-
plete system failure that requires service. Unless power must
be removed due to an emergency, always wait at least one
minute after placing the system in S
the AC mains power cord.
Risk of fire or equipment damage. Faulty tubing, fittings,
and drains may allow organic solvents to pool in unsafe
areas, creating a potential for dangerous levels of
flammable vapors. Improper draining may damage the
instrument's internal components.
Perform a tubing inspection monthly:
1. Visually inspect the solvent, waste, and drain tubing. The
tubing must be free of any damage, kinks, or deterioration.
Fittings should show no signs of leaks.
2. Test the collection tray drain by connecting a vacuum or air
supply source to the outlet end of the drain tubes. Then,
verify the presence of such vacuum or air supply source on
the drain hole (Figures 6-1).
Correct any deficiencies before returning the instrument to oper-
ation.
