Installing a Heating Mantle

Installing a Heating Mantle
A heating mantle is used on a sample tube to assist in maintaining a specified
temperature. Heating mantles should be used only on samples being degassed (in
the Degas position).
1. Slide the heating mantle upward around the sample tube.
2. Holding the mantle in place with one hand, gently push the clamp horizon-
tally to the left (or right as shown here) about the mantle at two or three cen-
timeters (approximately one inch) below the upper edge.

the set temperature. Internal electronic circuitry limits the maximum tempera-
ture attainable to 400
ing display if Temp is depressed.
