Operation

5.1

Powering up

Before switching on the power, be sure that:

·

System is checked for leakage of gases and liquids

·

All connections have been made

·

Flow-set points are zero

·

No liquid has been spilled into the equipment

Switch on and then:

·

Allow 30 minutes (from switching on) to warm up (common for thermal flow controllers)

·

Wait until temperatures setpoints are reached. When the LED indicators turn blue, temperature

setpoints are reached.

·

Make sure that the carrier gas is always flowing before the liquid flow setpoint is applied.
