Mounting the pump head

To ensure that the pump drive is not damaged during transport a black

plastic block is mounted in place of the pump head on the right side of

the 709 IC Pump front panel. This transport safeguard block has to be

removed after undoing the four screws.

To avoid any damage to the pump head, the protective block must be

remounted if the pump has to be moved any great distance.


Next, the 6.2824.040 Pump Head 18 (6.2824.040 or 6.2824.100) with in-

tegrated piston units is unpacked and fixed in place of the transport

safeguard block with the four hexagon screws 19 as shown in Fig. 2.

To ensure that the pump head is not positioned wrongly, the holes at

the rear for the clamping bolts have different depths, i.e. 1 clamping

bolt is longer than the rest. The deepest hole must naturally accom-

modate the longest bolt. If this is not the case, the pump will not

function properly.


The connection capillary 14 fastened to purge valve 24 is screwed onto

pump head 18 as shown in Fig. 2.

The 2.709.0110 IC Pump MF (metal-free version) should only be

operated in the pressure range of 0

25.0 MPa (0

250 bar). With

higher pressure, the 6.2824.100 PEEK pump head can be damaged.

So make sure that the maximum shutoff pressure

P

max

of the pump is

always set to

25.0 MPa (see section 3.4.2).
