Metrohm 816 IC Eluent Selector - Manual (Page 18)

2 Installation
1 Attaching the eluent inlet tubing
• Screw the PEEK fittings of the three pieces of 6.1834.020
Aspiration tubing supplied loosely by hand into connec-
tions "A" and "B" of Valve I 5 and "C" of Valve II 7 of the IC
Eluent Selector. Tighten the screw fittings by using the
6.2621.050 ¼" Wrench (also included in the standard
equipment) to rotate them a further ¼ turn.
• Make sure that the other ends of the aspiration tubing are
immersed in the eluents.
2 Attaching the outlet to the IC pump
• Screw the 6.1834.030 Tubing connection 816-709 by hand
into the "PUMP" connection of Mixing chamber 6. Tighten
up the connection by using the 6.2621.050 ¼" Wrench to
rotate it a further ¼ turn.
• Slide the tubing end onto the capillary at the aspiration con-
nection of the IC pump.
Make sure that the tubing between the outlet of the IC Eluent Selector
and the IC pump is kept as short as possible by shortening the
6.1834.030 Tubing connection 816-709 accordingly. In this way you
minimize the dead volume and therefore the reaction time after
switching to a different eluent.
2.5 Software installation
The PC program «IC Net 2.1» is required for controlling the 816 IC Elu-
ent Selector from a PC. This program runs under the operating systems
Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT and Windows 2000 and is in-
stalled as described in Section 1.4.2 of the 8.110.8223 Instructions
for Use for the Metrodata «IC Net 2.1» software.
The installation of the 816 IC Eluent Selector is described in Section
6.12 of the 8.110.8223 Instructions for Use for the Metrodata «IC Net
2.1» software.
Make sure that the RS 232 settings of the 816 IC Eluent Selector and
the interface of the connected PC/IC interface are identical. The settings
for the 816 IC Eluent Selector are given in Section 4.1.2.
