8. With Chromeleon 7.2.8 and later: In the Chromeleon software, set
the CapillaryMixer property to the value indicated on the capillary
mixer.
9. Apply the flow rate of your application and have the pump deliver
for a short time.
10. Inspect the flow connections on the mixer for indications of leakage
before resuming operation.
11. In the Chromeleon software, consider updating the Predictive
Performance information for the static mixer ( MixerChanged
command).
When operating the pump, observe the following
• Operating the pump with a mixing system with a volume lower than
the volume installed in the pump upon shipment reduces the
gradient delay volume but increases the ripple.
• The maintenance procedures are the same as for the mixing system
with which the pump was shipped (see
Mixing System ( } page 168) ).
10.1.2.4
Installing the 35 µL Inline Filter Set

• Capillary to connect the pump to the autosampler
Tools and additional items required
• Depending on the fitting connection on the capillaries
¨
Viper capillary: Viper knurl (usually present on the capillary)
¨
Conventional capillary (non-Viper): Open-end wrench, size 1/4"
