Part 1: Bottle Preparation

Note: Turn the MicroCal iTC 200 off and disconnect it from power before proceeding.

1. Remove the four bottles from their packaging. Using

the standard tubing, the bottles will need to be

located within about three feet (1m) of the washing

module.

The bottle with the blue top

(ASY021396) will be used for water.

The bottle with the red top

(ASY021398) will be used for methanol.

The bottle with the white top

(ASY021397) will be used for buffer.

The bottle with the grey top

(ASY021615) will be used for waste.

2. The waste bottle assembly includes

two waste lines. Set them aside.

3. Remove the three tygon tubing assemblies

(ASY021608) from the ir packaging and screw them

onto the tops of the red, white and blue bottles.

4. Set the four bottles aside in a safe location near the cell unit.

Part 2: Fluid Connections

1. Remove the cleaning device (ASY020513) from

its packaging.

2. Connect the line from the top of the device into

the C3 port on the left side of the washing

module. Turn the nut on the red plumbing

connector until it is finger tight.

3. Connect the line that originates at the side of

the device to the C4 port on the left side of the

washing module. Turn the nut on the red

plumbing connector until it is finger tight.

4. Place the cleaning device into the center hole at

the back of the washing module.

5. Two waste lines were set aside in Part 1, Step 2.

Select one of the waste lines based on how far

the waste bottle will be located from the

washing module. Then connect it to the C5 port

on the washing module. Turn the nut on the red

plumbing connector until it is finger tight.
