Gas Requirements
Gas Line Connections
PerkinElmer AA instruments include the hoses necessary for connection to gas
lines. It is the responsibility of the user to provide the appropriate gas lines,
regulators, connectors and valves to which the hoses are connected.
Safety of Gas Cylinders and Gas Delivery Lines
While the installation and operation of all gas supplies is the responsibility of the
user, the following safety information concerning the handling of gas cylinders is
included for your reference:
• Flammable gas cylinders (such as acetylene) should not be stored with
oxygen, or nitrous oxide cylinders, or adjacent to oxygen charging
facilities.
• Fasten all gas cylinders securely to an immovable bulkhead or a permanent
wall.
• When gas cylinders are stored in confined areas, such as a room,
ventilation should be adequate to prevent toxic or explosive
accumulations. Move or store gas cylinders only in a vertical position with
the valve cap in place.
• Locate gas cylinders away from heat or ignition sources, including heat
lamps. Cylinders have a pressure-relief device that will release the
contents of the cylinder if the temperature exceeds 52 °C (125 °F).
• When storing cylinders external to a building, the cylinders should be
stored so that they are protected against temperature extremes (including
the direct rays of the sun) and should be stored above ground on a suitable
floor.
• Mark gas cylinders clearly to identify the contents and status (full, empty,
etc.).
• Do not attempt to refill gas cylinders.
Note
The permanent installation of gas supplies is the responsibility of the user
and should conform to local safety and building codes.
