4. The primary piston delivers solvent to the accumulator, the vent valve,
and the inline 22-µL filter during transfer.
5. The accumulator piston delivers solvent, under pressure, to the vent
valve and the inline 22-µL filter.
6. From the inline 22-µL filter, the solvent flows to the UPC
2
Flow-splitter.
7. The UPC
2
flow-splitter adds the ISM solvent to the LC mobile phase and
then splits the diluted mobile phase into two streams, one flowing to the
convergence manager and the other to the QDa detector.

kit:
Solvent flows through the ISM with an installed UPC
2
Flow-splitter kit as
follows:
1. Solvent is degassed through the in-line vacuum degasser.
2. The solvent is filtered before entering the primary check valve.
3. The filtered solvent flows through the primary check valve and into the
piston chamber.
