Section 2 Installation

Figure 2-34 Column with inlet and outlet lines connected
Note
Metal tubing and fittings for the column connection are recom-
mended. The high pressure capability of the ACCQPrep could
cause a rupture if polymer tubing or fittings are used and a
blockage occurs. If you would like to use polymer tubing and
fittings, we recommend the column be configured with a lower
pressure limit in the PeakTrak
®
software.
If a guard column is desired, this can be connected between the
injection valve and the column inlet. This may require an addi-
tional column mount and tubing which is not included. A kit con-
taining a complete set of column mounts can be obtained (P/N
60-5234-790). In addition an assortment of tubing lengths and
nuts can be obtained (P/N 60-5239-025).
2.5.2 Column Configuration The ACCQ Prep software supports default methods for individual
columns. This allows easy selection of default methods with a
single key touch. This process is described in section 3.4.1.
2.5.3 Column Select Valve
(Optional)
The ACCQ Prep ’s efficiency can be enhanced by the addition of
the Column Select Valve Module (CSVM). This optional
accessory supports up to four columns on the system that can be
selected for a separation from a simple drop down menu. When
coupled with the AutoSampler, every programmed sample can
utilize the column best suited for each sample. This assumes the
fluids used for each column are miscible and small amounts are
compatible in sequentially used columns.
