Installing the Discovery TGA System
Unpacking/Repacking the TGA
The instructions needed to unpack and repack the instrument are found as separate unpacking instructions
in the shipping box and in the online help associated with the instrument control software. You may wish to
retain all of the shipping hardware, pallets, and boxes from the instrument in the event you wish to repack
and ship your instrument.
Installing the Discovery TGA System
Before shipment, the TGA is inspected both electrically and mechanically so that it is ready for operation
upon proper installation. Installation involves the following procedures:
1 Inspecting the system for shipping damage and missing parts
2 Choosing a location for instrument installation
3 Preparing the Discovery TGA for installation, which includes removing the shipping bracket and
unpacking the balance
4 Setting up system communication between the instrument and computer (controller)
5 Connecting purge gas lines to the GDM
6 Connecting the heat exchanger cable and water lines
7 Connecting the TGA power cable
8 Installing the Upper Reflective Assembly (TGA 5500 only)
9 Installing the Autosampler tray
10 Installing the hang-down wires
11 Leveling the instrument and aligning the hang-down wires
12 Installing the lower furnace assembly (TGA 5500 only)
13 Closing up the balance and conditioning the balance
14 Filling the heat exchanger reservoir and purging the heat exchanger system of air
It is recommended that you have your TGA installed by a TA Instruments Service Representative; call for
an installation appointment when you receive your instrument.
