Routine Daily Work Procedures

Planning

• Thoroughly understand procedures and equipment required before

beginning work. Work from a written plan.

• Consult your Safety Officer for personal protective equipment

recommendations and operating pressure confirmation.

Start-up

• Basic start-up procedure includes: turning on the vacuum pump,

opening the inert gas valve on the gas supply tank, and turning on the
glove box light. The accessory AtmosPure Re-Gen Gas Purifier can
be started once an inert atmosphere below 5000 ppm is established.

Loading Materials and Drying Train Set-Up

• Load only the materials and equipment required for the procedure.

Do not overload the glove box. When loading, ensure the inner door
is closed before opening the outer door. Then close the outer door.
