List of Required Tools

1 1/8" wrench recommended, or adjustable large wrench
(for attaching regulator to gas tank)
Te fl on
NOTE: The following tools are included in the optional Install Kit (PN 952-021-G1).
Open-ended wrench, 1/4 in. and 5/16 in.
Open-ended wrench, 7/16 in. and 9/16 in.
®
tape for regulator connections

Carrier Gas

Open-ended wrench, 3/8 in. and 7/16 in.
Hex driver, 2.5 mm ball-point long shank
Tubing cutter
. . . .Carrier gas (e.g., helium, argon) purity of 99.999%, or minimum 99.995%
when the appropriate carrier gas trap is installed. Contact INFICON for carrier gas trap assistance.
NOTE: A pressurized [>16,547 kPa (>2,400 psi)] 50 liter tank of carrier gas will
last approximately one year or more.
. . . .Dual Stage Regulator for pressurized carrier gas tank with outlet pressure
regulated to 400-427 kPa (58-62 psi). A Swagelok 1/8 in. fitting is preferred on the regulator outlet to connect the carrier gas feed tube to Micro GC Fusion.
NOTE: In North America, use the CGA 580 inlet connection (PN 952-416-P1)
for helium, nitrogen and argon carrier gas. Use the CGA 350 inlet connection (PN 952-415-P1) for hydrogen carrier gas. For installations outside of North America, use the appropriate inlet connections as standard for the region.
Exceeding 427 kPa (62 psi) carrier gas pressure may result in instrument damage.

NOTE: 3 m (10 ft.) of pre-cleaned GC grade copper tubing is included with
Micro GC Fusion. Additional copper tubing is available in the installation kit (PN 952-021-G1), or can be ordered in 15 m (50 ft.) lengths (PN 5180-4196).
NOTE: Do not clean copper or stainless steel tubing with solvent.
NOTE: Do not use Teflon
including nuts and front and back ferrules. Typical size is 1/8 in. but adapters for 1/4 in. to 1/8 in. may be needed if 1/4 in. tubing is used.
NOTE: Calibration gas must be available at the time of installation.
NOTE: Calibration gas must closely resemble the composition of the actual
process gas.

Sample Gas Pressure Range

Sample gas pressure greater than 172 kPa (25 psi) will damage Micro GC Fusion.
. . . .Maximum pressure for direct sample injection into either the front or rear sample
inlet is 172 kPa (25 psi). To prevent damage to Micro GC Fusion, limit input sample pressure to 69 kPa (10 psi) or lower.
. . . .When the Integrated Sample Conditioner is installed, sample pressures up to
6,895 kPa (1,000 psi) can be introduced into either the front or rear sample inlet. Sample pressures higher than 6895 kPa (1,000 psi) must be reduced.
PN 074-615-P1A
. . . .When a Genie Filter Assembly (PN 952-022-G1) is installed, sample pressures
up to 3447 kPa (500 psi) can be introduced into either the front or rear sample inlet. Sample pressures higher than 3447 kPa (500 psi) must be reduced.

Installation Space and Venting

. . . .Micro GC Fusion 2-Module instrument
Dimension (L x W x H): 43.3 x 20 x 26.5 cm (17 x 7.9 x 10.4 in.) Weight: 6.8 kg (11 lb.)
. . . .Install Micro GC Fusion in a location with easy access to the instrument and
associated computer.
. . . .For optimum Micro GC Fusion performance and to dissipate heat, do not restrict
the airflow around Micro GC Fusion.
Safely vent sample streams—potentially toxic, noxious, or flammable gases—outside the instrument and away from the operating area. Vent toxic gases to a fume hood, chemical trap, or reaction medium.
. . . .Avoid venting Micro GC Fusion into drafty areas, such as in front of a
heating/cooling vent.
