Sample Extractor Assemblies

Rev 006, 01/14

Slide the isolation door closed and lower the handle to lock it into position.

Remove the plastic shroud from the stoppering ram.

Prior to stoppering the sample, you may backfill the antechamber with an inert

gas, such as nitrogen (N

2(gas)

) via the vacuum break valve. Connect your inert

gas source to the vacuum break valve via the filter attachment.
