FlowPrep 060

Degassing Samples

1. Place the degasser power switch in the ON ( | ) position.
When the FlowPrep leaves the factory, stabilizing tubes are placed in heating stations
1 and 6 to prevent the heater block from shifting during shipment. Be sure to remove
these tubes before turning on the FlowPrep.
2. Set the temperature controller to the desired temperature.
Heat is delivered to all six heating stations; therefore, to prevent burns keep your
hands away from the interior of the heating stations.
3. Place the flow control valve on the desired heating station in the open position.
4. Wipe the gas delivery tube with a clean cloth to remove any residue left from the previous
sample.
