Troubleshooting and Test Functions

System Pressure Abnormally Low

The current system pressure is significantly below the typical system pressure
produced by this method with this column.

Table 6

System Pressure Abnormally Low: Possible causes and actions

Possible Causes

Suggested Actions

Notes

Leaks somewhere in the
system

• Use a flashlight and absorbent tissue to search

for leaks throughout the system.

At very low flow rates, a leak may
never accumulate enough liquid to
trigger the module leak sensors. Low
flow rate leaks are also very hard to
see.

Solvent channels are not
correctly purged. %Ripple
might also be too high

• Perform a 4-minute purge at 2500 µl/min for

each solvent channel.

This is especially likely if the system
has been unused for more than one
day.

Dirty solvent inlet filters
Solvent intake is being
restricted, %Ripple might
also be too high

• Clean or replace the solvent inlet filters.

To minimize this problem, prefilter
the mobile phase, and take
precautions against algae formation
in the water.
