6.2 REGULAR MAINTENANCE
In addition to routine maintenance, regular maintenance every three to four months is recommended.
This will ensure trouble-free operation.
6.2.1 Pyrolyzer furnace
(1) Cooling fan
Check to see if the cooling fan starts spinning as soon as the temperature controller is on. If the
cooling fan does not start immediately, the fan needs to be replaced. The cooling fan maintains the the
sample temperature near room temperature when the system is at stand by. If the temperature of the
sample when in the standby position exceeds 100°C, a protection function is activated and the heater
power is turned off.
(2) Liquid sampler
Replace the septum (P/N:PY1-2025). There is no need to perform maintenance work; however, the
septum should be regularly replaced to avoid unexpected troubles
(3) Double-Shot sampler
a） Make sure that the slider moves smoothly. If there is difficulty, slide it up and down several
times until it moves smoothly; if this fails to smooth out the movement it may be necessary to
disassemble it prior to cleaning. After cleaning, a lubricant must be applied. Contact us if you
prefer it to be re-conditioned at Frontier Labs (charged).
b） Check the O-ring for air purge valve for any damage. The damage can lead to gas leakage.
c） The mounting surface of the sampler is a mirror finish. Contamination or scratches on the
surface can result in gas leakages. When storing the sampler, the surface should be
protected.
