NOTICE
The end of the air trap tubing should be directed away from the
operator (preferably, it should be connected to a waste hose).
A component test should always be performed after mounting a new flow kit. If the in-
stallation wizard is used, a component test is automatically included in the installation
procedure. The component test is described in Chapter 8 Component test, on page 107.
Alternative mounting procedure
To minimize microbiological contamination it is possible to assemble a flow kit in, for
instance, a LAF cabinet before it is mounted onto the system cabinet. However, if you
decide to preassemble a flow kit, be careful to check that the angles between the different
parts are correct. If they are not, the flow kit will not fit properly on the cabinet, possibly
causing kinked tubing. To adjust the different parts it is necessary to loosen the TC con-
nectors.
Connecting the flow kit parts after they have been mounted on the cabinet is the recom-
mended procedure since this ensures correct positioning. Stray light calibration should
be done prior to run of system.
