4 Maintenance
The
in situ
Adapter does not require regular maintenance.
Contamination can be removed using water or a mild laboratory cleaning
agent. The covering hood should be wiped using a moist cloth only in
order to prevent water or other liquids from entering the lateral ventilation
slits of the double chamber.
Do not allow any parts of the
in situ
Adapter to come into contact with
organic solvents or aggressive chemical. Do not clean the transparent
plastic parts using alcohol or acetone.
