Installing the cartridge sipper system in the sample chamber
1. Screw the support rods into the top position (→ section "Converting the
sample chamber" p. 7).
2. Attach the ready configured sample intake hose to the intake connection of
the flow cell. The flow direction is marked on the cell with an arrow!
Slide the Tygon hose piece over the intake connection. The black Viton seal
must sit on the intake connection and Teflon hose must reach into the cell.
This prevents from samples accumulating at the intake connection.
3. Attach the pump hose to the connection piece of the cell.
− Cut a piece of approx. 3 cm length off the drainage hose.
− Slide the hose piece onto the connection piece.
− Connect the other end of the pump hose to the pump hose using a hose
coupling.
