4. Check the waste line over the entire flow path:
a) Make sure that no bending (kink), pinching or squeezing of the
waste line is present at any point in the flow path.
b) If you have to cut tubing to length, use a tubing cutter. Make
sure that the cut is at right angle to the length of the line.
When cutting the waste line to length, also make sure that the
cut is not crimped.
The waste line should go straight to the system base and to
waste. Make sure that the line is positioned straight in the
tubing guides.

5.6.5 Guiding Liquid Leaks to Waste
Leaking liquids of the detector are collected in the leak tray, where they
flow off through the chase on the right side of the leak tray to the drain
system.
For information about how the liquid is discharged to waste through the
Vanquish drain system, refer to the
Vanquish System Operating Manual
