Inserting the graphite tube into the graphite tube furnace
Removing and installing a graphite tube is necessary after the atomization method has been
changed and after a certain number of atomizations has been carried out with the same
graphite tube.
CAUTION!
Never touch the graphite tube with your bare fingers! Fingerprints burn into the surface, and
this causes premature damage to the pyrolysis coating of the tube.
