Connecting the liquid waste line
Required materials
• Chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves
• Waste container
To connect the liquid waste line:
1. Place a suitable waste container below the mass spectrometer.
2. Slide a drain line over the barbed fitting of the drain (located at the
bottom, left-hand side of the mass spectrometer).
Caution:
To avoid gas leaks, use the sharp knife to cut the PTFE
tubing squarely (that is, perpendicular to its horizontal axis).
Warning:
The waste line and connection can be contaminated with
biohazardous and/or toxic materials. Always wear
chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves while performing this
procedure.
Caution:
To avoid distorting the drip tray or causing the drain cup
to leak, restrain the drain cup when attaching or removing the
waste line.
