Renewing the instrument desiccant

CAUTION

Old, used desiccant releases moisture and can cause catastrophic failure

of KBr optics.

Do not use damaged packs of desiccant. Make sure that the packs you

use have not been left in contact with the air.

You can purchase disposable desiccant kits from PerkinElmer (part number N0171159). A kit

contains two packs of desiccant, and three kits are required.

Inspect the humidity indicator card in the plastic bags in which the spare desiccant

packs are packed. If the card indicates humidity in the bag, discard the desiccant pack.

Remove the sample area cover, if fitted, by opening the cover, pressing the clip and

pulling the cover vertically to remove it (Figure 30).

Figure 30 Removing the sample compartment cover

Undo the two captive screws securing the desiccant cover (Figure 31).
