B. Placement of the Converter/Probe

To ensure sample-to-sample consistency, the platform

has a bracket secured near the top of the rod that holds

the sonicator converter/probe. This bracket enables

you to fix the placement of the probe tip. Depending

on the probe to be used, you may need to adjust where

the converter bracket is located vertically on the rod.

Typically, the black Stop Collar is placed on the top gear

of the rod, and the bracket is secured just above the

collar (right). (The Stop Collar is used to set how far up

the rod that the platform can be raised. Remove the pin

so that you can slide the collar to its desired height, then

reinsert the pin to fix the collar at the chosen rod gear.)

Once you have determined where the bracket will be

placed, use the supplied hex wrench to loosen the set

screws. Adjust the bracket to its new height and use the

hex wrench to tighten the set screws so that the bracket

will not move on the rod.

You will also need to determine at what height in the

bracket the converter/probe will sit. It is suggested that

you place tape or some kind of marking on the converter

(right). This will enable you to return it to the exact same

position in the bracket in the event somebody moves

(or removes) the converter/probe from the bracket.

Once the converter/probe is placed into the bracket,

secure by tightening the screw to the converter size

adapter. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. The bracket should

firmly secure the converter/probe to the platform, but

care must be taken not to damage the converter.

Note:

Depending on the size of your

converter/probe, you may want to

remove the converter/probe bracket

and replace it with the alternate spring

bracket. (See Appendix Section A)
