40 Operation and Maintenance Manual
Overview
Installation and start-up of the Agilent 355 SCD or 255 NCD by a qualified
Agilent Service technician is recommended. If you choose to install the
detector yourself, carefully read all of this chapter prior to installation of the
instrument.
Although every reasonable safeguard against shipping damage has been taken,
product damage may still occur due to excessive mishandling. If obvious
damage has occurred during shipment, contact Agilent. Shipping materials for
the 355 SCD or 255 NCD should be saved. If the instrument must be returned
to the factory, it must be packed in the original carton to reduce the chance for
damage during shipment. Replacement shipping containers can be purchased
from Agilent.
WARNING
Substituting parts or performing unauthorized modification to the instrument may result
in a safety hazard.
WARNING
Hydrogen is a flammable gas. Perform periodic leak tests to verify there are no leaks in
the hydrogen lines and connections. Before making any connections, shut off the hydro-
gen supply. Connect or cap all fittings at all times when using hydrogen.
