The DXR-GM cell and G-01 control box use Swagelok connections throughout. In the course of experimental work you will sometimes need to break or re-make some of these couplings. Swagelok issue the following rules for these procedures.
1. New installations - making a connection for the first time.
Assemble the components of the joint and make the joint finger-tight. Mark each part with a pen or pencil. Hold BOTH parts of the joint with spanners. Then for ¼" diameter tube, tighten by 1¼ turns. For 1/8" or 1/16" tube follow the same procedure but tighten by only ¾ turn.
2. Re-making joints.
Assemble as above and make finger-tight. Then with spanners make a further ¼ turn (all tube sizes).
