Maintaining Your GC 203
To Attach a Capillary Column Adapter on an Adaptable FID
1 Gather the following materials:
• Adapter (See “Consumables and Parts for the FID” on
page 196.)
• 1/4- inch brass nut
• 1/4- inch Vespel/graphite ferrule
• Column cutter
• 1/4- inch wrench
• 9/16-inch open-end wrench
• Lint- free gloves
2 Load the GC maintenance method and wait for the GC to
become ready.
3 Assemble the nut and ferrule onto the adapter.
4 Insert the adapter straight into the detector base as far as
possible.
5 Hold the adapter in this position and finger- tighten the
nut.
Be careful! The oven, inlet, and/or detector may be hot enough to
cause burns. If the oven, inlet, or detector is hot, wear
heat-resistant gloves to protect your hands.
Wear clean, lint-free gloves to prevent contamination of parts with
dirt and skin oils.
