Replacing Tubing

Replace tubing assemblies whenever tubing becomes kinked or develops a
blockage that prevents flow. If tightening a fitting that is leaking does not resolve
the problem, the fitting or the entire tubing assembly should be replaced.
All replacement tubing must have the same length and ID as the
original tubing. This maintains the accuracy of the Dionex AutoTrace
280 liquid and air push operations.
