Replacing the IntelliStart Fluidics tubing 5-111
Requirement:
As the tubing emerges from the tubing guide, thread a
long “finger-tight” fitting over it. Push the tubing through the left-hand
hole, to the bottom of the reservoir bottle, and tighten the fitting.
Tips:
Follow these suggestions if you find threading the tubing through
the guides difficult:
•
Thread the tubing upward from the bottom hole.
• Using needle-nose pliers, make a 20° bend, 10 mm from the end of
the tubing. Then rotate the tubing, as necessary, as you thread it
through the guide.
4. Using a long “finger-tight” fitting, connect orange, 1/16-inch, 680-mm,
PEEK tubing from port 2 of the lock-spray selector valve to the reference
reservoir bottle or orange, 1/16-inch, 1000-mm, PEEK tubing to the
external reference bottle.
•
To use reservoir bottle B as the reference solution, thread the tubing
through tubing guide B, and secure it with a long “finger-tight”
fitting.
• To use an external reference bottle, push the tubing to the bottom of
the reference solution, and secure the tubing at the bottle neck to
prevent it floating to the surface during use.
