Specifications
7.1
Performance Specifications
The solvent monitor performance is specified as follows:
Type
Specification
Operating principle
Hydrostatic pressure measurement with intelligent automatic
calibration for solvent density and bottle dimensions
Volume assessment
Fully automated, independent of solvent type or composition
Hydrostatic pressure sampling
Repeatability of pressure sampling of 1%
Pressure range
Up to 350 mm water liquid level, solvent reservoir/waste container at
atmospheric pressure
Number of solvent lines
4 or 8
Solvent and additives information
Common HPLC-grade solvents
The allowed salt concentration for the solvent monitor is 1 mol/L or
less.
For further information, refer to the
Operating Manual
for your
Vanquish pump.
Solvent reservoir/waste container
sizes
All solvent reservoirs/waste containers from 0.25 L to 5 L (and
additionally 10 L for waste containers) with a maximum height of less
than 350 mm are supported with any solvent.
Solvent reservoir/waste container
types
Solvent reservoir/waste containers of any suitable material with a
uniform cross section along the entire height are supported. Solvent
reservoirs of any suitable material with a uniform cross section along
the entire height are supported with reduced accuracy. If the liquid
level is within the bottleneck, the accuracy may be reduced.
Solvent reservoirs/waste containers must not be sealed tight and air
valves or other one-way valves must not be used. Filtering caps are
acceptable.
Fisherbrand solvent reservoirs/waste containers are recommended.
Biocompatible
Yes
Metal free
Yes
Communication
1 USB port (USB 2.0, "B" type connector)
1 system interlink port (RJ45-8 connector)
Control and user interface
Chromeleon 7 (and Vanquish User Interface) and status indicators on
the solvent monitor
Wetted materials
PEEK
