Guidelines for Detector Drainage
General Guidelines
•
Connect the ports separately with a drain line for each port. Do
not
use a connection tube to connect both ports with each other.
•
You can easily push the drain tubing into the connecting pieces with
your hand (no tools required). Push the tubing into the connecting
piece as far as it goes in to establish a self-sealing connection. When
installing the tubing, do not bend it against the preformed bending
direction.
•
If the workbench has a front raised lip higher than 1.5 cm (0.6 inch),
the liquid cannot be directed over the elevated edge. In this case,
route the tubing to the rear of the workbench and direct the liquid
into an appropriate waste container.
•
The tee piece with the opening facing upward helps removing air
from the drain system and thus prevents liquid from flowing back
into the interior of the modules.
•
Both drain ports may be directed to the same waste container using
separate drain lines.
• Make sure that the tubing and waste bottle are below the height of
the detector.
• Make sure that no bending, pinching or squeezing of the drain tubes
is present at any point in the flow path.
Drainage in an UltiMate 3000 system
In an UltiMate 3000 system, you can use the components from the drain
kit for UltiMate 3000 systems to direct liquid leaks to waste via the drain
system. The kit is shipped with the UltiMate 3000 pumps and can be
ordered separately. The kit includes all required components and
detailed installation instructions.
If there is more than one UltiMate 3000 detector in your system and you
need an additional tee piece, you can find one in the ship kit of the
UltiMate 3000 fluorescence, multi wavelength, or diode array detector.
