This document provides instructions on how to install the Electron Capture Detector on Agilent Technologies' 6890 GC Accessories G1533A, G1593A, G2397A. The document includes safety information, such as the product's safety classification and usage precautions.
This document provides the installation procedure for an Electron Capture Detector (ECD) on an Agilent 6890 Gas Chromatograph. It covers both EPC and non-EPC detector configurations, detailing the required tools, parts lists, and safety precautions regarding hazardous voltages and radioactive materials.
The guide outlines a step-by-step process including preparing the GC mainframe, installing the flow manifold or pneumatics module (for early versions), positioning the detector, connecting tubing and cables, and restoring the instrument to operating condition. It includes specific instructions for routing ribbon cables and gas tubing.
| Safety Class | Class 1 |
|---|---|
| Transient Overvoltage Category | Category II |

You must unplug the power cord to avoid a potentially dangerous shock hazard from hazardous voltages present in the mainframe.
A T-20 Torx screwdriver is needed to loosen the screw that holds the RFI cover in place.
You must use a properly grounded static control wrist strap because board components can be damaged by static electricity.
