Maintaining the VI 10
Maintaining Your GC 187
To Clean the VI
1 Gather the following:
• 1/4- inch and 7- mm wrench
• T- 20 Torx screwdriver
• Lint- free gloves
2 Load the inlet maintenance method and wait for the GC
to become ready.
3 Remove the interface. (See “To Remove the VI Interface”
on page 185.)
4 Remove the split vent and pressure sensing lines by
loosening the nuts.
5 Clean the interface using an ultrasonic bath. Sonicate
twice, then rinse and air dry.
6 Inspect the split vent line. If clogged, contact Agilent for
service.
Be careful! The oven and/or inlet may be hot enough to cause
burns. If either is hot, wear heat-resistant gloves to protect your
hands.
The split vent trap and line may contain residual amounts of any
samples or other chemicals you have injected into the GC. Follow
your company’s safety procedures for handling these types of
substances.
Wear clean, lint-free gloves to prevent contamination of parts with
dirt and skin oils.
