2.4 Solvent and Additive Information
2.4.1 General Compatibility
To protect optimal functionality of the Vanquish system, observe these
recommendations on the use of solvents and additives:
• The system must be used with reversed-phase (RP) compatible
solvents and additives only.
• Use only solvents and additives that are compatible with all parts in
the flow path.
TIP In a Vanquish Core system, normal-phase (NP) compatible solvents
and additives may be used if the VC-pumps and the VC-autosamplers are
modified with the components from the Normal-Phase (NP) kit. Refer to
the
Operating Manuals for the pumps and autosamplers.
NOTICE
If the system flow path includes a Vanquish charged aerosol detector,
observe the specific solvent and additive information for this detector.
Refer to the
Operating Manual for the Vanquish charged aerosol
detector.
