Setting Up
5.1 Flow Cell Installation
Place the flow cell as close as possible to the column outlet and/or any
other detection devices (e.g. a UV flow cell, if used) and connect the flow

socket on the rear panel of the
control unit.
If the monitor is to be used in conjunction with the Model EM-1
Econo UV Monitor, connect the gradient monitor flow cell directly to the
