2 Purge pump
The purge valve 2 is opened by turning anticlockwise and the
pump can now be deaerated by starting the pump in «IC Net».
The solvent bottle should be located somewhat above the pump, but
at least at the same level as the pump head 8 (never below the
pump).
3 Deaerate pump
Should the pump not prime by itself, the 6.2816.020 syringe
supplied is used to siphon off solvent via the outlet capillary 5
with opened purge valve through the pump head until there are
no more bubbles in the solvent entering the syringe. The pump
can then again be briefly purged.
4 Close purge-valve
On completion of this procedure, the purge valve 2 is closed by
turning clockwise. The pump is now ready for operation.
