5.4 Connect Waste Line
(1) Prepare the following waste line tube.
Tube Polyurethane 6 mmID × 9 mmOD : 1 pc
(2) Connect an end of the tube polyurethane 6 mmID × 9 mmOD to the drain outlet nipple
behind the unit. Connect the other end of the tube to the waste sewer in the lab.
If the waste sewer is not available, connect it to a waste tank.
The maximum waste line length is 6 m.
NOTE: • Cut the tube to an appropriate length, and connect it.
• Since waste is removed from the system by pressurized air, the waste
tank may be located at the same height as, or lower than, the drain
outlet nipple. Otherwise the waste may be flown back into the
system, which will result of a malfunction.
(3) Arrange and tie the diluent and waste line tubings as shown in the figure using the
provided clamp.
