3.10.2
Deaerating the high pressure pump
The high pressure pump will only operate perfectly if the pump head con-
tains no more air bubbles. Therefore it must be deaerated during initial
start-up and after every change of eluent.
Caution
The high pressure pump must not be deaerated before the initial start-
up (see Chapter 4.1, page 63).
Deaerate the high pressure pump as follows (see Figure 16, page 34):
Deaerate the high pressure pump
The instrument must be connected to the PC and switched on to deaerate
the high pressure pump.
