Agilent 708-DS Dissolution Apparatus

2.1.7. Dissolution Vessel Installation
The 708-DS utilizes the TruAlign™ dissolution vessels. To install the
vessels, raise the drive unit of the apparatus. Locate the vessels and
carefully insert them into each position of the vessel plate. Rotate the two
diagonal clips for each position over the vessel rim to secure it in place. If
desired, use the point on the vessel collar (see Figure 2-6) to orient the
vessels identically for each test.
Figure 2-6. TruAlign Vessel Orientation
For any unused vessel positions, locate the TruAlign blank vessel position
covers. Place a cover over the vessel plate openings and rotate the two
clips over the rim of the cover to secure it in place.
2.1.8. Manifold Installation
For an instrument configured with Auto Sampling or AutoTemp, the use of
a manifold is required. To install the manifold, lift the drive unit of the 708-
DS to its fully raised position. From the Main screen, press Menu >
Diagnostics. Position the manifold so the center screw is aligned with the
center receptor on the underside of the drive unit. Ensure the left and
right alignment cylinders are also positioned correctly. Push the manifold
up into the drive unit until resistance is met. While gently lifting upward,
press Load from within the Manifold Control box on the touch screen. The
internal drive slowly lifts the manifold to its fully raised position.
If the AutoTemp option is installed, attach the two 9-pin RS232 cables to
the appropriate locations on the underside of the drive unit. If the manifold
is configured with tubing and cannulas for Auto Sampling, locate the black
tubing fasteners and attach them to the sample tubing wrap.
