5. Connect the AC power cord to the back of the Foxy 200.
Connect the other end of the power cord to an outlet meet-
ing the electrical requirements listed on the serial number
label.
6. Connect the “Y” Serial Cable end labeled Second Instru-
ment Foxy to the RS-232-C port on the back of the Foxy
200.
7. Pl ace the Foxy 200 to the right of the BioOptix10 (Figure
2-1). Ensure that the full motion of the fraction collector
arm is not obstructed, especially near column positions 9
and 10 on the BioOptix 10.
2.2.5 Fluid Connections Fluid line connections include Buffers, Samples, Waste, Pump
Purge, and Foxy. Tubing for the fluid connections is located in the
accessory kit, P/N 60-5209-002. The kit includes enough tubing
to complete a standard installation. Standard tubing lengths are
noted in the following instructions for each connection. This kit
also includes a tubing cutter.
Except as noted on the Foxy connections, use the following steps
for tubing connections:
1. Loosen the nut on the compression fitting.
2. Insert the tubing fully into the fitting.
3. Finger-tighten the nut.
4. Using a wrench, tighten the fitting an additional full turn.
Buffer A – These inlet ports are located on the left side of the
BioOptix 10. The ferrules on these inlet ports accept the
0.125" OD tubing, P/N 023-0503-02, found in the accessories kit.
Note
Larger or smaller outside diameter tubing will require different
ferrules.
Buffer A solutions may be unique to each channel, or a single
solution may be routed to all ten channels.
• If unique buf fers will be used on each channel, cut the
tubing to length (standard length is 60" or 152 cm) and
route the tubing to the buffer solution containers.
• If a common buffer solution will be used for all ten
channels, install the Buffer Assembly (P/N
60-5204-064), found the accessory kit. Figure 2-14 illus-
trates the Buffer Assembly parts. Figure 2-15 shows the
buffer assembly installed on the BioOptix 10.
