External Low Pressure Valve Outputs
Six outputs allow connection to externally-installed low-pressure (solenoid)
valves. Low-pressure valves can be used for on/off control of liquid flow (for
example, to turn flow on and off from a reagent reservoir). You control the
outputs with Chromeleon.
Two low-pressure valves can be installed on a regulator stand and four valves
can be installed on the rear of the DC.
Analog Output, TTL, and Relay Connectors (Optional)
If the I/O option (P/N 062201) is installed, the following connections are
provided:
•
Two analog outputs (one for each detector)
•
One +5V power output
•
Two relay outputs
•
Two TTL outputs
•
Eight programmable TTL inputs
See Section 2.17 for details about the I/O option.
Drain Port
The drain port removes any liquid that collects in the drip tray in the bottom
of the DC. A clear corrugated drain hose (P/N 055075) is connected to this
port during installation. Place the drain hose into a waste container. To
maintain a positive siphon, position the waste container below the level of the
DC.
For correct drainage, make sure the drain hose is not bent, pinched, or
elevated at any point. Do not allow the end of the hose to be submerged
in waste liquid.
