Installation
6. Attach the other end of the copper tubing to the gas fitting on the back of
the degasser.
7. Open the gas bottle shut-off valve.
Use the regulator pressure control knob to set the pressure to 15 psi
(103 kPa).
8. Close the gas bottle shut-off valve. Check the pressure. If it decreases, gas is
probably leaking at the fitting. Tighten the fitting. Then check the pressure
again.
9. Open the regulator shut-off valve. The pressure should stabilize after about
five minutes. If it does not, gas is probably leaking at the brass reducer fit-
ting or at the gas port on the rear panel of the degasser. Tighten the fittings,
then check the pressure again.
10. Open the gas bottle shut-off valve.
11. There are two RS-232 serial ports on the back panel of the degasser. They
are labeled with arrows indicating data flowing into the left connector and
data flowing out of the right connector.
