If the detector is not to be used for more than one week, then,
prior to storage, wash the flow line with pure water or acetone,
and dry the line by allowing nitrogen gas to flow through.
Do not use any eluent which might corrode the material, such as
stainless steel, that it comes into contact with. Use of such
eluent might cause a base line drift and damage the detector.
Use a dry cloth to wipe the detector.
Do not use water or alcohol. Use of such liquids may damage
the detector or erase characters or color on the panel.
Do not connect any cord to the output signal terminal other than
the attached signal cord.
Use a thoroughly degassed eluent. It is recommended that
a degassing device be used to degas the eluent as it is easy to
use and permits continuous degassing.
If an eluent is replaced with another eluent in which it is insoluble,
after having withdrawn the old eluent from the line, wash the line
with a solvent which is soluble in both eluents, then fill the line with
the new eluent. For example, if water is replaced with chloroform,
wash the line with acetone before filling the line with chloroform.
When replacing an eluent containing salt with an eluent containing
organic solvent, wash the line with pure water and then acetone
before filling the line with the organic-solvent-containing eluent.
In contrast, when replacing an eluent containing organic solvent
with an eluent containing salt, wash the line with acetone
first and then pure water before filling the line with the
salt-containing-eluent.
When high voltage cause by static electricity applies to the
instrument, there are possibilities some incorrect actions are
observed. Please notice the static electricity.
Please do not set other equipments on this detector because of
avoiding enlarging the baseline drift and uncontrolling
temperature.
