To Install a Column Guard or Jumper Chip
The column Guard Chip and the Jumper Chip are both single-use, consumable
parts. Installation deforms part of the Chip to make a good seal, so that a
mis-installed Chip cannot be re- used. The Guard Chip cannot be cleaned or
conditioned.

Procedure
1 Prepare the GC for maintenance. From the GC panel select Maintenance >
Inlets > Guard Chip > Prepare for Maintenance >Replace Liner and Guard
Chip > Start Maintenance. This procedure cools the inlet, detector, column,
Guard Chip, and other components in the flow path heated zones to < 40 °C
and configures the GC. Follow the on-screen GC prompts.
2 From MassHunter Data Acquisition, Vent the MS (See “To Vent the MS” on
page 124.)
The inlet, detector, bus components, and column can be hot enough to cause
burns. Cool heated zones to a safe handling temperature before continuing.
Always wear clean gloves while handling any parts that are in the flow path
going to the analyzer or parts that are located inside the analyzer.
