Use only clean distilled water.
Whenever the racks are not going to be used for a prolon-
ged time, empty them so as to keep deposits from forming
on the metal shell.
Syncore Analyst appendix sleeves
To improve the ability to reach the final volume within the
entire rack (faster and more stable), the appendix sleeve
is used.
It can be inserted into each Analyst rack position by means
of the special tool.
Connections for cooling media
The cooling media used may be either tap water or some
other coolant using an external cooling aggregate.
The temperature of the cooling medium may range between
0°C and 40°C, but has to be set at least 10°C below the
heating temperatur. The flow of cooling medium should be
regulated at between 100 and 200 ml/min.
The cooling of the residual volume has not been designed
for less than 0°C. Cooling to below 0°C should be avoi-
ded.
The 6 positions in the Rack R-6 with cooling of the residual
volume are connected in series. They are connected to the
cooling medium across two hose connections. Hoses at
the inlet a for the cooling liquid a and at the outlet b for
the liquid b must always be secured. To avoid losing heat
capacity when using a cryostat to cool the condenser and
the rack it is recommended to place two T-connectors to
reduce the amount of cooling media in the rack. From time
to time it is important to check if the flow is high enough.
The vortex movement of the racks also moves the hoses
for the liquid. The hoses must not be laid across the rack
or the unit. Any contact of the hoses with sharp edges or
corners must absolutely be avoided.
