Flow kit components
ÄKTA ready uses flow kits that include all the necessary tubing, from inlet to outlet, in-
cluding flow cells, air trap, column connection tubing, and pump tubing. Specifications
regarding the flow kits, including materials and chemical resistance tables, are found in
Chapter 14 Reference information, on page201
. The drawing below shows the components
of an ÄKTA ready flow kit.

The following table gives a brief description of the flow kit components. Numbers in the
table refer to the figure above.
Several flow kit components are flow cells for sensors located on the system
cabinet. In such cases, the ID tag technically refers to the sensors rather than
the flow cells/adapters. Here, however, the tags are used for identification of
both sensors and their corresponding flow cells.
