VP-ITC MicroCalorimeter User’s Manual
•
Make sure the top syringe clamp is still seated against the top of the syringe holder, hold the
bottom syringe clamp tightly against the bottom of the syringe holder and gently tighten the
set screw using the accessory 0.050” Ball Point Hex Driver.
!
Use care not to over tighten the set screw, as too much pressure will cause the glass to
break. You want to tighten the screw just enough to prevent the bottom syringe clamp
from moving freely
.
•
Insert the syringe holder into the pipette holder (attached to the
side of the VP-ITC).
•
Bring the pipette injector directly above the syringe holder, start
bringing the injector down while observing the plunger tip of the
pipette injector to insure that it is being inserted into the hole in
the glass barrel of the injector syringe, then mate the screws of the
pipette injector to the locking collar of the syringe holder
•
With your fingers, turn the locking collar until it is fully tightened
on the pipette injector.
When the locking collar is fully tightened there should be only a
couple threads of the pipette injector viewable.
•
Plug the connector of the pipette into the back of the pipette
controller to complete the pipette assembly.
