Maintaining the Split/Splitless Inlet 5
Maintaining Your GC 59
To Replace the Gold Seal on the Split/Splitless Inlet
1 Gather the following:
• Replacement gold seal (See “Consumables and Parts for
the Split/Splitless Inlet” on page 44.)
• Replacement washer
• 1/4- inch wrench (for column)
• 1/2- inch wrench
• Lint- free gloves
2 Load the inlet maintenance method and wait for the GC
to become ready.
3 Remove the inlet liner.
4 Remove the column from the inlet. Cap the open end of
the column to prevent contamination. Remove the
insulation cup around the base of the inlet.
5 Loosen and remove the reducing nut. Remove the washer
and seal inside the reducing nut.
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.
