OPERATING, MAINTAINING

AND SERVICING THE miniPV Series

This chapter of the miniPV Series Instruction & Operation Manual
contains information regarding the operation, service and maintenance of
the miniPV Series instrument. For additional information on required
utilities, instrument installation and setup, refer to Chapter 1.

miniPV Series components

The standard miniPV Series installation includes these primary compo-
nents:

Bath unit

Waste Receiver assembly

Power supply

NOTE

The installation also requires user-supplied solvent vessels. CANNON
supplies two G-38 reagent bottle caps (for recommended solvent vessels).
The user must ensure solvent compatibility for dual solvent systems,
since solvent residue will mix in the system. Additionally, any new solvents
should be compatible with previously-used solvents, since residue from
original solvents may remain in the solvent lines and/or Waste Receiver.

Bath Unit

The Bath Unit houses the primary control and operating systems for the
miniPV Series, including modular service components, temperature bath
with viscometer tube, carousel vial holder, and related hardware.
