Tools, Equipment, and Supplies Required for Maintenance
While working on the Cell the following tools, equipment, and supplies
are required (supplied by AMETEK only where indicated):
• Measuring Cell spare parts. Refer to either the Measuring Cell Manual
Supplement or the Custom Spare Parts List (if applicable), located in the
“Supplemental Information” section of this manual and the Documen-
tation Package shipped with the analyzer.
• Set of open-end wrenches for fittings and set of metric ball drivers.
• O-ring removal tool.
• Flat blade instrument screwdriver.
• Soft, non-abrasive cloth to place Cell interior parts on.
• Kimwipes
®
EX-L or an equivalent extra low-lint tissue to clean the
front and back sides of the Windows.
If the Windows require a more thorough cleaning, a high purity sol-
vent such as Isopropanol (99 %) can be used (if suitable for use with
removing contamination).
• Cotton swabs, to clean the interior of the Cell Body and other metal
parts.
If the Cell requires a more thorough cleaning, use only non-abrasive
cleaning materials that are suitable for use with the sample species
and the Cell.
For example:
If suitable for the species, an acceptable material is Chem-Thane – or a
nonabrasive detergent and water solution. Reagent-grade acetone (if
suitable), can then be used to rinse the Cell Body, followed by a rinse
with pharmaceutical-grade distilled water.
• Pharmaceutical-grade distilled water, to rinse all Cell parts.
• Reagent-grade acetone as a secondary cleaner for the interior of the
Cell Body and other metal parts (must be suitable for use with the
sample species).
