The 6100 Series Single Quad LC/MS Liquid Chromatograph diverter valve is an 
integral part of the G1978B safety system. The LC mobile phase flow must always be 
connected to the diverter valve inlet filter. Never bypass the diverter valve and 
connect directly to the nebulizer. If the diverter valve is used in a manner not 
specified by Agilent Technologies, the protections provided by the diverter valve may 
be impaired and the system may catch fire.
