Sensitive optical fibers are exposed at both ends of the LightPipe flow cell (see
Thermo Fisher Scientific ships the LightPipe flow cell with end caps (see
these optical fibers. Do not remove the protective end caps until you install the LightPipe flow
cell. If you remove the LightPipe flow cell from the detector, replace the protective end caps
for storage.
CAUTION Avoid touching the ends of the LightPipe flow cell. Touching the ends of the
flow cell can damage the exposed optical fibers. If you must grasp the ends of the
LightPipe flow cell, wear clean, talc-free gloves.
Note Thermo Fisher Scientific ships two versions of the LightPipe flow cell.
