Remove and Install a Flow Cell

For bio-inert modules use bio-inert parts only!

When

If an application needs a different type of flow cell or the flow cell needs repair.

Prerequisites

CAUTION

Sample degradation and contamination of the instrument

Metal parts in the flow path can interact with the bio-molecules in the sample leading to sample degradation and contamination.

For bio applications, always use dedicated bio parts, which can be identified by the bio-inert symbol or other markers described in this manual.
Do not mix bio, and non-bio modules or parts in a bio system.

NOTE

The lamp house cover includes a magnet.

Disconnect the flow cell inlet capillary (top) from the union.
Disconnect the waste tubing (bottom) from the union.
Insert the flow cell capillaries into the union holder (top is inlet, bottom is outlet).
Reconnect the waste tubing (bottom) to the union.
Perform a Wavelength Verification and Calibration or a Holmium Oxide Test to check the correct positioning of the flow cell.
