7.3.1 Front Sample Inlet

7.3.2 Front Sample Inlet - Integrated Sample Conditioner

140 / 319
The front sample inlet is a 1/16 in. Swagelok male connector. It connects the sample
to one or more GC modules, allowing for parallel analyses on multiple GC modules.
The front sample inlet is heated and deactivated to avoid sample condensation and
adsorption.
CAUTION
Sample inlet gas pressure must be less than 172 kPa (25 psi). Exceeding 172
kPa (25 psi) will damage Micro GC Fusion and require factory repair.
WARNING
Micro GC Fusion has a heated inlet which is hot to the touch.
When an Integrated Sample Conditioner is installed, the front sample inlet is replaced
by a 1/8 in. Quick Connect.
CAUTION
The 1/8 in. HIGH PRESSURE PURGE connector on the back panel should
not be restricted when a pressurized sample is flowing.
Doing so will damage the instrument and cause leaks, which is not covered by the
warranty.
WARNING
The 1/8 in. Quick Connect temperature may reach 100°C (212°F).
Touching the Quick Connect at operating temperature can result in injury.
