2.8.2 Flow Meter
The flow meter, which is located above the pump heads of the NC pump, controls the
required partial flows of the two solvent channels so that the selected target flow and the
selected solvent composition are reliably met. Two types of flow meters are available:
• ProFlow flow meter with thermal flow sensors, for nano LC ( flow connections overview
→ page 31)
• Classic flow meter with flow selectors, for either capillary LC or micro LC (
flow
connections overview → page 31)
The following flow meters and selectors are available for different flow ranges:
Description Part No.
ProFlow flow meter for nano LC (50 – 1500 nL/min), with
thermal flow sensors
Note:
Operation of the module with a ProFlow flow meter
requires a suitable firmware and Chromeleon version. For
details, contact Thermo Fisher Scientific sales organization.

6041.0003
6041.0014
Note:
♦ To modify from a ProFlow flow meter to a Classic flow meter or vice versa,
exchange the complete flow meter.
♦ To modify the flow range of a Classic flow meter, install the respective flow
selector for capillary or micro LC.
For more information about the flow meter, see pages 110 and 222.
For information about how to replace a flow meter or a flow selector (Classic flow meters
only) for a different flow range, see section 7.7 ( → page 202).
