2.1 Instrument setup
2.1.1 Packaging
The 837 IC (Eluent/Sample/Combi) Degasser and its specially packed
accessories are supplied in very protective special packaging which
contains a shock-absorbing plastic foam lining. The instrument itself is
contained in a dustproof evacuated polyethylene bag. Please store this
packaging in a safe place; it is the only way in which the safe transport
of the instrument can be guaranteed.
2.1.2 Checks
Please check that the delivery is complete and undamaged
immediately on receipt (compare with delivery note and list of
accessories given in section 5.2). If transport damage is evident please
refer to the information given in section 5.5.1 "Warranty".
2.1.3 Location
Place the instrument on a suitable vibration-free laboratory bench, pro-
tected as much as possible from corrosive atmospheres and contact
with chemicals.
To avoid disturbing temperature influences on the insulated column
compartment, the pump and eluent reservoir must be protected
against direct sunlight.
2.1.4 Arrangement of the instruments
The 837 IC (Eluent/Sample/Combi) Degasser should preferably be at
the bottom of the IC System (If you use it together with the 833 IC Liquid
Handling Unit: Place the 837 directly above the 833).
The 837 IC (Eluent/Sample/Combi) Degasser should always be
placed at the bottom of the instrument stack so that any leaks which
may occur in the pump tubing or connections cannot cause damage
to the other instruments by leakage liquids.
