Prepare the outlet tubing
Connect tubing to the outlet ports of the outlet valve that are to be used during the run.
If no fraction collector is used, immerse the outlet tubing in suitable tubes or flasks.
If a fraction collector is used, make sure that tubing is connected between the fraction
collector and the Frac port on the outlet valve, and prepare the fraction collector for a
run.
Plug unused valve ports
It is recommended to plug all unused valve ports with stop plugs before starting a run.
