Installing the Micro-Fuel Cell

The Micro-Fuel Cell is not installed in the cell block when the
instrument is shipped. Install it before the analyzer is placed in service.
Once it is expended, or if the cell is exposed to air for too long, the
Micro-Fuel Cell will need to be replaced. The cell could also require replace-
ment if the instrument has been idle for too long.
When the micro-Fuel Cell needs to be installed or replaced, follow the
procedures in chapter 5, Maintenance, for removing and installing cells.
