Installation Instructions
1. Power down the Model 3090 EEPS™ Spectrometer and
Model 3098 PTT following the instructions in the Model 3090 and
Model 3098 manuals, respectively. Turn off the main disconnect
on the back of the Model 3098.
2. Remove the power and serial connections from the back of the
EEPS™ Spectrometer.
3. Completely loosen the Swagelok® nut connecting the output of the
PTT to the EEPS™ Spectrometer using an 11/16 in. open-ended
wrench.
4. Loosen the clamp securing the EEPS™ Spectrometer on to the
PTT. Remove the EEPS™ Spectrometer and set aside. The
instrument should now appear as shown in Figure 1.
5. Unscrew the handle from the rubber base of the hold-down clamp
using a 9/16 in. open-ended wrench. Remove the threaded handle
by unscrewing completely from the post.
6. Using a T30 Torx® driver, loosen the two quarter-turn screws
holding the front panel on the PTT. DO NOT use a tool other than
the correctly-sized Torx® driver, as the plastic screws may strip.
Remove the front panel by gently lifting up on the bottom (there
are two holes in the bottom of the panel that locate on two fixed
pins attached to the 3098 chassis) and sliding the panel off of the
hold-down clamp post. Set the panel aside.

Spectrometer removed.

7. The vacuum pump is now visible. Remove the muffler from the exhaust port of the pump (see Figure 2),
and install the SS-600-1-6 fitting in its place as shown in Figure 3. Keep the muffler in a safe place in
case it needs to be reinstalled in the future. Be sure to apply PTFE tape to the threads of the fitting before
installation into the pump.

muffler removed.

Install one tubing insert into each end of the tube by pressing them in with your finger as shown in
Figure 4.
