FLUSHER
The flushing unit if fitted to your system, is intended
to be used after the vacuum pot has been drained.
To use the flushing unit, pump the system down to
approximately 5 mbar, pour approximately 100 ml of
acetone into the funnel and open the flushing valve.
Always ensure that you close the flush valve
after use.
Drain the vacuum pot and repeat as necessary.
NEVER USE THE FLUSHING UNIT VALVE TO
VENT THE SYSTEM. ALWAYS DRAIN THE
VACUUM POT BEFORE USING THE FLUSHING
UNIT.
• Drain the condenser before each run and at the
end of each day.
• Flush the condenser if a less volatile solvent is to
follow a volatile solvent.
• Defrost times will depend on the nature and
quantity of solvent.
• A drained and clean condenser operates more
efficiently.
