The flow can be measured directly from the detector block at the left most port as shown
in Figure 483 on page
gettering material of an in-line heated helium purifier. Do this before applying power to
the purifier. Ensure the hose leading to the flowmeter is clean and dust free before holding
it against the O-ring seat.
6. Carefully insert the Instant Connect Helium Saver Injector Module into position on the
GC top deck after first inserting the ceramic insulator shown in
Figure 485. Positioning the Instant Connect Helium Saver Injector Module
Also, be sure to remove the column nut from the injector if it has not already been
removed. This prevents damage to the ceramic insulator when the module is inserted.
Note It may be helpful to insert the left side of the module just prior to the right side
in order to clear the space properly. The module fits snugly into position but should
not require undue force to clear the sheet metal opening.
7. Secure the T20 screws near the center line of the module leading to the injector and
detector pneumatic network prior to tightening the captive screws which hold the
module. See Figure 486.
