Lift straight up by bail
• Locate the package containing the cadmium column and remove the box from the carousel. Also
locate the 9615 Syringe Kit which is near the cadmium column. Set these items aside for later use.
• Locate the seven (7) one liter reagent bags that are present in the individual compartments of the
carousel. Note that one of the bags is loose in the compartment and has a tubing assembly attached to
its middle port. This bag should be removed immediately and set aside for later use. Note that the
other six bags are attached to tubing by multicolored threaded fittings. Note also that each bag has a
colored tie-wrap on the top of the container that is coordinated with the color of the fitting to which the
bag is attached.
• As you inspect the reagent bags, note carefully that there is a small (50 mL) plastic bag that is
permanently attached to the side of the internal cylinder as shown in the picture below. This bag
MUST NOT BE REMOVED as it contains silicon oil. The 50-mL bag is designed to expand and
contract with temperature and depth changes to equalize the pressure between the pump chamber and
the water at the site.
