4.Preparing The Die For Use
The Atlas™ Lightweight Evacuable Pellet Die and its component parts
are packed from the factory in such a way that they do not suffer
damage during transit. The optically polished surfaces of the plunger
and the base are covered in a protective material and the die may be
lightly coated with oil.
1) Before use the protective material on the plunger (
1
) and base (
2
)
should be removed and all component parts must be thoroughly
cleaned with an organic solvent to ensure that the protective oil is
fully removed. The parts should be wiped dry taking care to use
non-abrasive cleaning cloths on the polished faces of the plunger
(
1
) and the base (
2
).
2) Place the base (
2
) onto the bench top. Ensure the base O-ring
seal (
3
) is correctly positioned in the groove on the base (
2
) and is
not damaged.
3) Assemble the Cylinder Body (
4
) by pressing down onto the base
(
2
). A tight fit between the parts is achieved from contact with the
base O-ring seal (
3
). (See Exploded Diagram page 10.)
The Die is now ready to accept a sample for compression. The sample
can be either a solid powder material alone or a solid powder material
contained in a support cup.
Note:
For X-Ray Fluorescence analysis, solid powder samples are
usually contained in an aluminium or plastic support cup of
32mm or 40mm diameter corresponding to the particular
diameter size of die. A variety of support cups for this purpose
can be purchased through Specac.
