Amicon Stirred Cell Manifold

6015
Introduction
The Amicon Stirred Cell Manifold is designed for
®
use with Amicon Stirred Cells and reservoirs. It
®
selectively separates an inlet gas or liquid stream into
multiple outlet streams. With this manifold, a single
feed line can be distributed to three individual outlets.
If desired, several manifolds can be grouped together
to provide additional outlet streams.

Setup
1. Position manifold body with label facing upward.
2. Attach clamping rod/plug to a ring stand or
mount manifold to a support structure
using two mounting holes and screws provided.
3. Group stirred cells and reservoir (if used) in
positions appropriate for their use with
the manifold.
Manifold Fitting Assembly and
Attachment
NOTE: When connecting the manifold to Amicon
Stirred Cells, use the tubing supplied with the stirred
cell (quick-connect inlet tubing assembly) for the
manifold outlet ports. Use the tubing supplied with
the manifold for the inlet port connection.
Attachment to older model stirred cells is the same,
except that the cell cap connection is the tubing
assembly shown below, rather than quick-connect.
1. Estimate the length of tubing required for each
connection and cut the four pieces of tubing to
length if necessary.

2. Carefully unscrew each of the four hex caps from
the manifold body and remove the O-ring. A grab
ring and spacer are included inside each hex cap.
3. Slide the hex cap and
grab ring (flat portion
facing hex cap) onto
one end of each of the
four pieces of tubing
leaving no more than
1.3 cm (1/2 in.) of
tubing beyond grab ring. Add a spacer
(countersink toward grab ring) and O-ring onto
the end of each piece of tubing.
4. Attach each of the four tubing assemblies to the
appropriate manifold port and hand tighten the
hex caps.
5. Add appropriate tube fitting to the free end of the
manifold inlet port tubing. The three outlet port
tubing pieces already have quick-connect fittings
on them.
6. Connect the quick-connect fittings to each stirred
cell cap. Connect the manifold inlet fitting to a
regulated pressure source, or if using a reservoir
(e.g., Amicon
Cat. No. 6028), to the reservoir outlet.
