K3 Nebuliser equipped
Maintenance and replacement:
- Handle with care: The K3 nebuliser contains delicate parts, especially the fine capillary tube. Always handle it with care to avoid damage, especially to the tip.
- Avoid bending or impact: Ensure that the nebuliser is not subjected to excessive force, bending, or accidental impacts. Even slight deformities can affect aerosol production.
- Proper storage: When not in use, store the nebuliser in a protective container or case to avoid accidental damage. Ensure the storage area is clean and dry to prevent contamination or corrosion.
- Persistent blockages: If cleaning does not resolve clogging or blockages and the nebuliser performance remains suboptimal, it may be time to replace it.
- Cracks or damage: Any visible cracks or significant damage to the nebuliser body, capillary, or gas ports necessitate immediate replacement to prevent sample loss or gas leaks.
- Deteriorated aerosol quality: If the nebuliser consistently produces poor-quality aerosol despite cleaning, replacement is recommended.
- Reduced sensitivity: A significant drop in signal sensitivity can be an indication that the nebuliser is not functioning properly due to blockages, contamination, or physical wear.
