6100CR Refrigerated Sampler
Section 3 Installation of the Sampler
Pull handle away before inserting tubing.
Figure 3-5 The Scoring Tool
Insert tubing here until it bottoms out, push handle
back in; then rotate tool to score tubing.
The scoring tool cuts a precise groove in the surface of the tubing
at the right distance from the end. This ensures that tubing will
be properly seated and locked inside the connector when the blue
fitting is tightened.
The fittings in Figure 3-4 have two ferrules, a thick one and a
thin one. The thin one locks the tubing by seating in the groove.
The thick one seals the connection between fitting and tubing. If
you must disassemble the fittings for any reason (and this should
be avoided), note the orientation and position of the ferrules
when reassembling them. See Figure 3-4.
Note
Where the tubing fittings are screwed into other threaded fittings,
apply Teflon ® tape to the threads before assembly to
prevent leaks. Proper tightening of the fittings is reached when
the blue nut just touches the clear fitting.
3.1.3 Tubing Connection
from Filter to
Regulator
Because the 6100CR cannot be shipped with the filter installed
or the tubing connected, it will be necessary to connect a piece of
tubing between the filter outlet (see Figure 3-1) and the pressure
regulator.
