System Void Volume
Eliminate switching valves,
couplers and the GM-3 Gradient
Mixer. Use only the Microbore
GM-4 (s-mm) Mixer (P/N
049135).
Minimize dead volumes.
Switching valves, couplerscan
be used. Use the GM-2, GM-3,
GM-4 or recommended gradient
mixers.
Use only on an IC System
equipped for capillary analysis.
Pumps Use
the
GS50/GP50/GP40/IP20/IP25 in
Microbore Configuration with a
Microbore GM-4
(2-mm) Gradient Mixer.
The GPM-2 can be used for 2-
mm isocratic chromatography at
flow rates of 0.5 mL/min or
greater but cannot be used for 2-
mm gradient chromatography.
NOTE: Use of an EG40 (P/N
053920) or EG50 (P/N 053922)
for gradient applications is
highly recommended for
minimum baseline change when
performing eluent step changes
or gradients.
Use the GP40/GP50/IP20/IP25
in Standard-Bore Configuration.
The GPM-3 Gradient Mixer
should be used for gradient
analysis on systems other than
the GP50 and IP25. The GP40
has an active mixer.
NOTE: Use of an EG40 (P/N
053920) or EG50 (P/N 053922)
for gradient applications is
highly recommended for
minimum baseline change when
performing eluent step changes
or gradients.
Use only on a pump designed
for capillary flow rates, such as
the ICS-5000 Capillary Pump.
Detectors
AD25/AD20 Cell (6-mm, 7.5
µL)
P/N 046423
CD25 or ED50/ED40
Conductivity Cell with Shield
(P/N 044132)
CDM-2/CDM-3 Cell
(P/N 042770)
ED40/ED50 Integrated
Amperometry
Either the TS-1 or the TS-2 can
be used with the CDM-2 or the
CDM-3. Do not use the TS-2 or
the TS-1 with the ED50/ED40
or the CD20.
Ensure 30-40 psi back pressure
after the cell.
AD25/AD20 Cell (10-mm, 9
µL)
P/N 049393
CD25 or ED50/ED40
Conductivity Cell with Shield
(P/N 044132)
CDM-2/CDM-3 Cell
(P/N 042770)
ED40/ED50 Integrated
Amperometry
Either the TS-1 or the TS-2 can
be used with the CDM-2 or the
CDM-3. Do not use the TS-2 or
the TS-1 with the ED50/ED40
or the CD20.
Ensure 30-40 psi back pressure
after the cell.
Use only a conductivity detector
designed for capillary flow rates
such as the ICS-5000 Capillary
CD.
