NOTICE
Contaminations at the nebulizer opening
Insert the nebulizer in the opening in the front panel of the detector. Observe the following:
The nebulizer tip must point to the opening in the middle of the nebulizer opening. Avoid the nebulizer tip from touching the sides of the nebulizer opening, as this can damage the tip.
Mind the correct orientation of the nebulizer: The gripping sides of the nebulizer are on the top and bottom side of the handle. The protruding sides for attachment are on the left and right side of the handle. See the picture below.
TIP
To facilitate inserting the nebulizer in the nebulizer opening, moisten the sealing ring on the sealing bushing with deionized water.
Push the nebulizer into the opening until the spray pipe and sealing bushing are completely in the opening. The nebulizer handle must lie flush against the nebulizer opening.
Turn the nebulizer by 90 degrees clockwise in the opening to lock the nebulizer. Check that the protruding sides on the nebulizer arrest behind the two locks of the opening and lie against the alignment pin.
After the detector has been turned on: Set the nebulizer gas pressure that is specified for your nebulizer and enter the nebulizer serial number. See Setting the Nebulizer Gas Pressure and the Nebulizer Serial Number.
