Step 4: Connect the Rinse Station
The simplest arrangement is for one channel of the peristaltic pump to supply
rinse solution to the rinse station, while the used rinse solution drains by
gravity. Other tubing arrangements are discussed in the
Operator’s Manual
.

Gravity Drain Rinse Arrangement
Depending on your application, the waste rinse solution may be returned to
the rinse solution container and recycled, or it may be directed to a separate
waste container.
1
Verify that the supplied
tubing material is compatible with the rinse solution
you are using. Most autosamplers are supplied with Tygon
®
tubing. Contact
CETAC if you need different tubing material.
2
Locate one of the pieces of adapter tubing.
