  • Page 8: Location

    MULTIVAP 118 INSTALLATION Location The MULTIVAP Evaporator System should be located on a bench top or in a chemical fume hood if hazardous or flammable materials and solvents are to be used. The location should provide the necessary support services for the instrument. These include electrical power (required for dry block) and a clean inert gas source (Air or Nitrogen).
  • Page 9 MULTIVAP 118 INSTALLATION Dry Bath Setup (Continued) If you do not have this option, Type-Z Purge Intrinsically Safe Bath option - please proceed to the next section. Procedures for operating this system may be found in the Operation Section. Quick start instructions are posted on the front of the bath. Please refer to Figure 3 below for parts list and installation.
  • Page 10 MULTIVAP 118 INSTALLATION Dry Bath Setup (Continued) Connect the black connector tube to the lower left connector on the rear of the unit labeled GAS INPUT. Connect the other end to a suitable gas source. Pressure Control is standard on all MULTIVAPs. This item is pre-installed onto the top of the bath box.
  • Page 11: Instrument Setup

    MULTIVAP 118 INSTALLATION Instrument Setup Install the two 5/8” DIA SS Tubes into the fittings located on either side of the bath chamber. Tighten the compression screws. Place the manifold over the tops of the two 5/8” SS tubes and slide the manifold downwards until 2 inches (50mm) of the tube extend above the manifold.
  • Page 12 MULTIVAP 118 INSTALLATION Instrument Setup (Continued) Needles and Pipets - SS Luer Lock Needles are supplied with the standard MULTIVAP system. Optional Pasteur Pipet Adapters allow the use of glass pipets. These fittings replace SS Needles on the MULTIVAP.

  • Page 15 MULTIVAP 118 OPERATION Type Z-Purge Bath Operation - Optional What It Does The Type-Z Purged system prevents ignition of flammable materials caused by contact with electrical components inside the heating unit. How It Works The concept behind this purge system is to create a small positive pressure gradient inside the bath case.
  • Page 16: Planning And Preparation

    Under no circumstances should this equipment be used with materials capable of auto ignition below 150 Degrees Centigrade including materials containing peroxides. Please Contact Organomation Associates Technical Support if you have any questions concerning the use of TYPE-Z Purged equipment or questionable materials in OAI equipment.
