3 Connection to the detector
Connect the detector input capillary with a long pressure screw
(6.2744.090) to the MCS output (labeled Out).

3.13.3
Installing adsorption cartridges
The suctioned air has to have the lowest CO
2
content possible in order for
the CO
2
to be removed from the eluent as efficiently as possible. In order
to achieve this, the air is aspirated through a CO
2
adsorption cartridge
(6.2837.000).
However, the CO
2
adsorption cartridge is sensitive to humidity; the CO
2
adsorption cartridge becomes clogged when wet. In order to protect the
CO
2
adsorption cartridge, an H
2
O adsorption cartridge (6.2837.010) is
also installed.
Accessories
For this step you need the following accessories:
■
Adsorption cartridge holder (6.2057.080) with 4 clips, an adapter
(6.1808.190) and a piece of PVC tubing.
■
CO
2
adsorption cartridge (6.2837.000)
■
H
2
O adsorption cartridge (6.2837.010)
All of the parts are located in one accessory kit: Vario/Flex SeS
(6.5000.020).
Installing the adsorption cartridge
CAUTION
The following preparatory steps absolutely must be carried out for CO
2
suppression to operate correctly.
Preparing the adsorption cartridges:
■
Prepare the H
2
O adsorption cartridge for use as specified in the provi-
ded leaflet.
■
Remove the protective cap on the tip of the CO
2
adsorption cartridge.
