17.Hold the push rod upside-down and insert it into the open- ing on the seal. Apply downward force until the seal snaps onto the push rod.

18.Refer to Figure 4-3 and reassemble the pump channel using new O-rings at the top and bottom of the glass cylin- der.

19.Repeat steps 10 through 18 for the remaining channels.

Note

Channel six is located below the inductor. To remove the glass cylinder on this channel, first remove the inductor by unfasten- ing the #8 pan head screw and internal lock washer.

20.After replacing the seals and O-rings on all channels, place the pump back into the case. Then, secure the pump:

a.Insert and tighten the pan head screw with lock washer into the top mounting tab (Figure 4-3).

b.Insert and tighten the Allen head screw with lock washer into the bottom mounting tab.

c.Insert and tighten the four screws with lock washer through the side of the case (item 4, Figure 4-2).

21.Place the drip tray (item 3, Figure 4-2) back into the sys- tem.

23.Place the back cover (item 1, Figure 4-2) on the BioOptix 10 and secure it with the mounting hardware.

Note

The seal replacement procedure is complete. Perform a pump flush (see section 4.1) to prime the system.

If peak amplitude of a standard sample (see section 4.5, Trouble- shooting) degrades over time, or if the baseline is noisy on all channels, the deuterium lamp may need to be replaced.
