A The daily maintenance and inspection of
glove boxes should include:
1. It is necessary to check the sealing performance of the glove box to confirm that there is no gas leakage, which can usually be done using the oxygen method or pressure decay test.
2. Check the
gas purification system, including the adsorption efficiency of the adsorbent and activated carbon, and whether they need to be replaced to ensure the gas quality inside the glove box.
3. The circulating fan and
vacuum pump also need to be regularly inspected to ensure their normal operation.
4. In addition, check the wear and tear of
gloves, replace damaged gloves in a timely manner, and prevent gas leakage.
5. Check and calibrate the temperature and humidity control system again to ensure a stable experimental environment.
These inspection items help prevent equipment failures, extend the service life of glove boxes, and ensure the accuracy and repeatability of experimental data.
