Installing the UVB-100 Emitter Assembly
To install the UVB-100 Emitter Assembly:
1.
Warning!
Do not touch the Emitter Assembly emitter without protective latex gloves on. The oils from
your hands and fingers can adversely affect the performance of the emitter and could create a
hazardous condition. Clean the Emitter Assembly with isopropyl alcohol if it accidentally comes in
contact with skin.
2. Choose a vacuum chamber port that allows for maximum exposure of the emitter to the interior space
of the vacuum chamber. This location
must also
ensure that the emitter does not touch any interior
component or the inner wall of the vacuum chamber.
Warning!:
To avoid overheating, do not install the Emitter Assembly on a 2.75
"
flange port that has a
tube length of greater than 4 inches.
3.
Remove the flange from the vacuum chamber port into which you are installing the emitter.
4.
Place a gasket onto the open vacuum chamber flange. A gasket is included with your UVB-100
shipment for each Emitter Assembly you are installing.
Important Note:
The following step is performed
after
you have tested the emitter. (Refer to the
document included with the Shipping/Testing Canister Assembly for instructions for testing the
emitter.)
5. After you have tested the emitter, remove the nuts and bolts that connect the Emitter Assembly to the
Shipping/Testing Canister Assembly.
6. Carefully remove the Emitter Assembly from the Shipping/Testing canister by pulling the Emitter
Assembly up and away from the canister.
7. Remove the insulating foil from around the emitter.
8. Insert the emitter into the vacuum chamber.
9.
Tighten the flange using the appropriate hardware.
10. Pump down the system.
