Maintaining Your GC 237
To Install a Capillary Column with the Optional TCD Capillary Column
Adapter
1 Gather the following:
• Ferrule (See “Consumables and Parts for the TCD” on
page 232.)
• Column cutter
• Column nut
• 1/4- in. and 7/16- in. wrenches
• Lint- free gloves
2 Load the GC maintenance method and wait for the GC to
become ready.
3 Place a capillary column nut and ferrule on the column.
4 Score the column using a glass scribing tool. The score
must be square to ensure a clean break.
Be careful! The detector may be hot enough to cause burns. If the
detector is hot, wear heat-resistant gloves to protect your hands.
Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes from flying particles
while handling, cutting, or installing glass or fused silica capillary
columns. Use care in handling these columns to prevent puncture
wounds.
Wear clean, lint-free gloves to prevent contamination of parts with
dirt and skin oils.
