Manual
Cleaning
Using mild soapy water, clean all parts of the Bu on Sampler before further sam-
pling. The Bu on Sampler can be brushed and/or wiped with a clean dust-free
tissue, air dried, blown dry, or wiped with isopropyl alcohol. Take particular care
in cleaning the PTFE O-ring.
The Bu on Sampler may also be autoclaved up to approximately 273.2 F (134 C).
Prepare the Bu on Sampler before autoclaving by removing the collar clip from
the sampler using a Phillips head screwdriver. Also remove the BUNA-N O-ring
from the sampler body (see page 2 for exploded view of sampler).
