3.3 Performing Post-Run Procedures
3.3.1 Cleaning the Sample Cells
After use, empty the cells and rinse the cell bodies and end caps with
water or organic solvent.
•
Both stainless steel and zirconium cell bodies (but not cell end caps)
can be cleaned in a dishwasher or high temperature cleaning unit. Do
not exceed 200 °C (392 °F) when performing high temperature
cleaning.
•
For most applications, simply rinsing the end caps is sufficient. If
necessary, disassemble the end caps (see
Section 5.2 ) and sonicate or
soak in solvent to clean them.
•
Do not use detergent to clean the end cap frits.
3.3.2 Processing Extracts
The composition of the extracts generated by the ASE 150 is very close to
that generated by Soxhlet and other standard solid-liquid extraction
techniques when using the same solvent. Use the same analytical method
for ASE 150 extracts that you employed for extracts obtained from other
techniques.
Cells are extremely hot after an extraction. Allow cells to cool for at
least 15 minutes before handling. Be especially cautious with cells
that have been heated over 50 °C (122 °F).
Les cellules sont extrêmement chaudes après une extraction.
Laissez-les refroidir pendant au moins 15 minutes avant de les
manipuler. Faites particulièrement attention aux cellules qui ont été
chauffées à plus de 50 °C.
Die Zellen sind nach ihrer Entnahme sehr heiß. Lassen Sie die Zellen
mindestens 15 Minuten abkühlen. Seien Sie besonders vorsichtig,
wenn Zellen über 50 °C erhitzt wurden.
