 Trap replacement
Replace traps by the following procedures.
(1) Stop carrier gas supply.
(2) Remove INJ/DET cover.
(3) To avoid error, replace the traps one by one.
(4) Remove the blind from a new trap.
This blind has been used for sealing the inside of
the trap. You don't need the blind any more.
(5) Install the new trap.
The tubing codes are as follows.
S ............ Split flow line
P ............ Septum purge flow line
C ............ Carrier gas inlet flow line
DO NOT forget to insert a couple of aluminum
gaskets between G-type joints.
 Conditioning molecular sieve filter
To condition molecular sieve filter, use the following procedures.
(1) Stop carrier gas supply.
(2) Remove INJ/DET cover.
(3) Remove molecular sieve filter.
(4) Condition the filter to the following conditions.
Flow direction of N
2
or He gas
Opposite direction of the GC normal operation
Gas flow rate...........10 to 20 ml/min
Temperature............300C
Time ........................3 to 4 hours
(5) After conditioning, immediately reinstall the
molecular sieve filter so that the filter does not get
contaminated.
