SKC 225-100 GS-3 Cyclone - Manual (Page 2)

Inserting Cyclone/Cassette Assembly in 225-1
Cassette Holder (Figure 2)
1. Insert the cyclone body through
the large opening of the cassett e
holder.
2. Ensure the cyclone/cassett e
assembly is seated fi rmly in the
holder by inserting the cyclone’s
small round nodule on the rim
into the notch in the cassett e
holder.
3. Remove the plug from the
cassett e outlet.
4. Secure the cyclone/cassett e
assembly in the holder by
stretching the spring-loaded
hold-down plate over the
cassett e outlet.
5. Insert the holder’s Luer adapter
(located on the end of the rubber
tubing) into the cassett e outlet.
Calibration
Option 1: Using a Calibration Jar (Figure 3)
1. Prepare a cyclone/cassett e assembly (see Figure 1). Ensure grit pot remains
on cyclone body during calibration.
SKC recommends using the smallest calibration jar possible. To
achieve this, do NOT use Cassette Holder 225-1 during calibration.
2. Place cyclone/cassett e assembly into an airtight calibration jar that contains an
inlet and outlet (SKC Cat. No. 225-111, see Figure 3).
3. Using fl exible tubing, connect inlet of calibrator to inlet of calibration jar.
4. Run tubing from outlet of cyclone/cassett e assembly through outlet of
calibration jar and to the inlet of a sample pump. If using the SKC 225-111 jar,
connect the Luer adapter inside the jar to the cyclone/cassett e outlet. Connect
jar outlet to inlet of a sample pump.
