3.3 Putting the amperometric detector into operation
The IC Amperometric Detector is put into operation together with the IC
instrument in which it has been inserted to.
The following measures must be carried out on the IC Amperometric
Detector during the initial start-up of the IC system (see the chapter
Initial
start-up in the manual for the IC instrument), even before the separation
column is used:
￭
Testing the instrument electronics with the dummy cell (see chapter
3.3.1, page 11)
￭
Testing the leak sensor (see chapter 3.3.2, page 13)
￭
Testing the preheating capillary (see chapter 3.3.3, page 14)
￭
Testing the detector output capillary (see chapter 3.3.4, page 15)
￭
Testing the measuring cell (see chapter 3.3.5, page 16)
￭
Deaerating the measuring cell (see chapter 3.3.6, page 18)
3.3.1 Instrument test with dummy cell
When you are putting the IC Amperometric Detector into operation for
the first time, or when problems occur which may be caused by signal
recording or signal transfer, we recommend testing the electronics and the
connection to the PC using the dummy cell (6.2813.040).
Proceed as follows:
Testing with the dummy cell
Prerequisites:
￭
In order to achieve accurate results, we recommend that the front
cover be closed during the instrument test with the dummy cell. Since
the space under the front cover is rather limited, we further recom-
mend removing the measuring cell from the cell holder for the instru-
ment test with the dummy cell.
For the instrument test you require:
￭
The dummy cell (6.2813.040)
