Notes for operating the suppressor

NOTE

The suppressor units must never be regenerated in the same flow direc-
tion the eluent is pumped. Therefore, always mount the input and out-
put capillaries according to the diagram outlined in Chapter Connecting
the suppressor, page 32
.

The suppressor consists of three suppressor units, which are used in rota-
tion for suppression, regenerated with regeneration solution, and rinsed
with ultrapure water. In order to record every new chromatogram under
comparable conditions, you should normally work with a freshly regener-
ated suppressor.

CAUTION

The suppressor must never be switched over if liquid is not flowing
through it, since otherwise it may become jammed. If the suppressor is
in a dry state, it must be rinsed for at least five minutes before it may be
switched over.
