5973N or 5973 inert MSD Hardware Manual
Diagonal cutters
Plastic gloves
1
Remove the plugs from the inlet and the outlet of the pump.
2
Verify that the available ac power matches the voltage rating
of the foreline pump.
3
Attach the correct line voltage identification sticker to the
MSD back panel.
4
Place the oil drip pan under the foreline pump as shown
5
Remove the cable ties holding the foreline hose.
6
Remove the blank flange from the free end of the hose, and
connect the hose to the inlet port of the pump.
7
If non-toxic and non-flammable carrier gas, solvents and
analytes will be used, install the pump exhaust oil trap on the
outlet of the pump. Otherwise, install a hose (11 mm id) to
take the foreline pump exhaust outside or to a fume
(exhaust) hood. Do not use the trap on a CI MSD.
C A U T I O N
Remove the red plug from the outlet of the pump before switching on
the MSD power. Operation with the plug in place will destroy the pump.
WA R N I N G
The pump exhaust contains carrier gas and traces of solvents,
analytes, and pump oil. The supplied trap stops only pump oil. It does
not trap or filter out toxic chemicals. If you are using toxic solvents
or toxic or flammable carrier gas, or analyzing toxic chemicals, vent
the pump exhaust to a fume hood.
