2.4.3 Installing the Gas Canisters

CAUTION

Only open the front panel in a dry, uncontaminated area.

The gas canisters must be installed inside the front panel. Open the panel by
placing thumbs on the top of panel and pulling down. This technique avoids
damaging the sealing gasket with fingernails.
The purple banded Nitrogen (also known as Carrier Gas) canister must be inserted
into the top round opening of the HAPSITE. The yellow banded Internal Standard
canister must be inserted into the bottom round opening.
To insert the canisters, place them into the opening with the top facing into the
HAPSITE. Depress the "PUSH" lever while inserting. The canister will slide further
into the HAPSITE. Release the "PUSH" lever and remove hands from canister.
Gently pull on the cans to ensure the cans are locked into place. See

Figure 2-14

Figure 2-15 Installing A Gas Canister

NOTE: The position of the gas canisters should not be interchanged. To prevent

improper placement, the Internal Standard canister has a Teflon® ring that
surrounds the inner stem on the top of the can. Do not force the canisters
into the wrong location as this would result in contamination of the
HAPSITE.
