Installing the Double Furnace Solids Module

The Double Furnace Solids Module can only be installed if a combined combustion furnace
for horizontal and vertical operation has been installed.

Filling the combustion tube of the solids module

CAUTION!
Alkaline salts (hand perspiration) causes crystallization in the quartz glass when heating
combustion tubes in the combustion furnace. This shortens the service life of the combustion
tube.
Where possible do not touch the cleaned combustion tube with your hands for filling. Wear
protective gloves during the filling of the combustion tube.
Only fill fully dried combustion tubes. If necessary, dry the combustion tube before filling.
Wipe any finger marks on the combustion tube with a cloth wetted with pure alcohol.
