Figure 3.5: Flow Cell Installation Position
Note:
•
The inlet port in Flow cell is connected to the
common port in the sequencer (if used) and the
pressure or flow speed is often adjusted by a valve
to meet the requirements (seen in the table 2.1).
Description of flow cell installation steps:
1. Check the outer diameter of sampling tube (6mm
or 8mm OD), and choose the right-size straight
joint, then connect it to the flow cell (if the sampling
tube's OD (Outer Diameter) is 6mm, choose the
small straight joint, otherwise use the middle
straight joint), PTFE tape is recommended to wrap
around the thread before connecting.
