The 6100 Series Single Quad LC/MS Liquid Chromatograph diverter valve is an
integral part of the G1978B safety system. The LC mobile phase flow must always be
connected to the diverter valve inlet filter. Never bypass the diverter valve and
connect directly to the nebulizer. If the diverter valve is used in a manner not
specified by Agilent Technologies, the protections provided by the diverter valve may
be impaired and the system may catch fire.
