CombiFlash Torrent® User Manual - Isco

Section 2 Preparation
CAUTION
Elevated flammable vapor levels are possible. Ensure that the
waste container is adequately ventilated, preferably by placing it in
a fume hood.
Note
The Torrent is shipped with protective caps on the waste fittings.
Remove these caps as you connect the waste lines. The internal
solvent lines contain isopropyl alcohol, some of which may drain
when the caps are removed.
Note
Waste connections on the left side panel are labeled
with a Waste icon.
The waste tube assembly is a bundle of two tubes that routes
post-run valve wash fluid to a waste container. Instructions for
diverter valve waste tubing is covered in the INSTALL
OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT section (2.10).
To connect the waste tube assembly to the Torrent:
1. Select the tube with the pre-swaged nut and ferrule and
connect this end to the port labeled VALVE. The connection
should be finger-tight. Then, use a wrench to tighten the
fitting an additional 1 8 turn.
2. Connect the other line to the LEVEL port:
a. Locate a nut (60-0923-015) and ferrule (60-0083-163) in
the accessory package (60-5249-002).
b. Insert the ferrule, narrow end first, into the LEVEL
port.
c. Loosely thread the nut onto the LEVEL port.
d. Insert the waste air line into the LEVEL port until it is
fully seated.
e. Finger-tighten the nut. If desired, tighten the nut an
additional 1 2 turn using a wrench.
The other ends of the Waste line should be placed in the waste
container.
