Safety Information
The Agilent Technologies 6890 Gas
Chromatograph meets the following IEC
(International Electrotechnical Commission)
classifications: Safety Class 1, Transient
Overvoltage Category II, and Pollution
Degree 2.
This unit has been designed and tested in
accordance with recognized safety
standards and designed for use indoors. If
the instrument is used in a manner not
specified by the manufacturer, the
protection provided by the instrument may
be impaired. Whenever the safety protection
of the Agilent 6890 has been compromised,
disconnect the unit from all power sources
and secure the unit against unintended
operation.
Refer servicing to qualified service
personnel. Substituting parts or performing
any unauthorized modification to the
instrument may result in a safety hazard.
Disconnect the AC power cord before
removing covers. The customer should not
attempt to replace the battery or fuses in
this instrument. The battery contained in
this instrument is recyclable.
Safety Symbols
Warnings in the manual or on the
instrument must be observed during all
phases of operation, service, and repair of
this instrument. Failure to comply with these
precautions violates safety standards of
design and the intended use of the
instrument. Agilent Technologies assumes
no liability for the customer’s failure to
comply with these requirements.
WARNING
A warning calls attention to a condition or
possible situation that could cause injury to
the user.

Overview
This section reviews the procedure for installing a nitrogen-phosphorus
detector (NPD) on an Agilent 6890 Gas Chromatograph (hereafter referred
to as the GC.) Before following this procedure, refer to the safety
information on the inside back cover.
Parts List
EPC
• NPD assembly: capillary optimized or adaptable
• Top and bottom insulation
• Nutwarmer cup and insulation (for adaptable NPD only)
NonEPC
•NPD assembly: capillary optimized or adaptable
•Top and bottom insulation
•Nutwarmer cup and insulation (for adaptable NPD only)
•Makeup gas regulator
•Two machine screws
Required Tools
•Electrostatic protection such as a grounded wrist strap (part no.
9300-0969, large or part no. 9300-0970, small)
•T-20 Torx screwdriver
•Diagonal cutters
•7/16-inch wrench (nonEPC detectors only)

Preparing the GC
WARNING Hazardous voltages are present in the mainframe when the GC is plugged in.
Avoid a potentially dangerous shock hazard by unplugging the power cord
before removing the side panels.
1. Turn off the GC and unplug the power cord. Allow time for all heated
zones to cool and then turn off supply gases at their sources.
From the back of the GC (see the next figure):
2. Unsnap and lift off the pneumatics top cover.
3. Remove the RFI cover. Remove the screw with a T-20 Torx screwdriver,
slide the cover to the left until it disengages from the top rear panel, and
remove it.
4. If you are installing a nonEPC detector, remove the detector cover plate
from the front or back position by loosening the two screws with a T-20
Torx screwdriver and sliding the plate up and off.

5. Loosen the five captive screws in the top rear panel with a T-20 Torx
screwdriver. Grasp the panel at each end and gently lift it up and away
from the GC. Be careful not to disrupt the supply tubing.
6. Raise the gray plastic top cover (with the holes and ventilation slots) to
the vertical position. Examine the hinge in the right rear corner.
•Early 6890 models. The hinge is a metal bracket attached to the
oven top. Pull the clip at its top toward you to release the hinge pin.
Push the pin to the left to release the cover. Raise the right side of
the cover and remove it.
•Current 6890 models. Raise the right side of the cover and remove
it.

7. Remove the electronics side cover. Loosen the two captive screws at the
top, slide the panel to the rear, and lift it off.
8. Remove the electronics top cover. Push in on the tab underneath the
back of the cover and lift it off.

Installing the flow manifold
This section describes the installation of the current version of the manifold.
For information about the early version, see the Appendix.
Caution Always hold the manifold by its support bracket to avoid damaging board
components.
1. Route the ribbon cable behind the manifold assembly as shown in
Figure 1. Then, slide the manifold and bracket assembly into the slot
until the bracket seats flush against the end of the rails. See Figure 2.

2. Route the gas tubing behind the manifold, over the top of the chassis,
and through the slots.
3. Connect the ribbon cable to the mating connector on the pneumatics
board. Arrange the cable to keep it away from the valves and keep it
from being pinched against the manifold.
For the back detector, you may want to loosen the manifold and slide it
out of the carrier a few centimeters to connect the cable to the
pneumatics board. Then, reinstall the manifold.
4. From the front, secure the manifold to the chassis using the Torx T-20
screw.
