Installing the reservoir bottles

Use standard reservoir bottles (30 mL) for instrument setup and calibration. Use the Low-volume Adapter Kit (included) to infuse smaller volumes. The low-volume vials have a volume of 1.5 mL.

Required materials

• Chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves

To install the reservoir bottles:

1. Remove the reservoir bottle caps.

2. Screw the reservoir bottles onto the mass spectrometer, as shown below.

3. For each reservoir bottle, ensure that the ends of the solvent delivery tubes are positioned so that they are close to, but not touching, the bottom of the bottle (see Adjusting the solvent delivery tube positions).
