Disassemble the upper FID housing, clean the cylindrical collector with fine abrasive cloth or sonicate in acetone. Electron Capture Detector (ECD-2010) The ECD contains a sealed
If the base line is unstable or sensitivity is low, the FID jet may be clogged. The service manual describes how to remove the jet, clean it in an ultrasonic bath, and re-install it, ensuring the igniter coil is properly positioned Operating Instructions for the Shimadzu GC-2010 Gas Chromatography System.

Inspect the split vent trap filter every six months. A clogged filter restricts split flow, leading to erratic split ratios and reproducibility issues. Column Installation and Conditioning
Remove the top-left casing cover of the GC-2010 to expose the modular AFC assembly.
The column oven heater and detector high-voltage power supplies pose severe shock risks. Always disconnect the main power cable before removing side panels.
