After installing a new tube, make sure that it is correctly installed by turning the tube

to Connect the tubes on page 14.
It is recommended to regenerate the molecular sieve weekly, but this will vary depending
on the humidity of the laboratory. A humidity indicator, such as color changing silica gel
crystal, can be used to show when regeneration is necessary.
To regenerate the molecular sieve, dry it in an oven at a temperature of 300 °C (572 °F)
for at least 4 hours. When cool, it can be kept in a glass bottle with an airtight seal.
