To remove the standard cell holder and adapter from the sample
compartment:
1 Lift the cell holder up to unhook the cell holder from the adapter
mounting.
2 Lift the adapter out of the sample compartment, carefully
avoiding the crossbar.
Installing the Cell
This section applies to AA modules only.
NOTE
While acceptable results for mercury can be obtained with the standard
absorption cell, Agilent’s flow-through mercury cell is recommended, since this
will generally provide better analytical sensitivity and precision.
Also, for locations where the discharge of mercury vapor in nanogram quantities
is not permitted, the standard absorption cell is not suitable. In these locations
you should use the flow-through mercury cell together with a suitable trap (see
Page 41).
WARNING
Sharp Objects
Absorption cells are fragile. Handle with care.
