Column Brackets
The column brackets are installed in the TC at the factory. The TC can hold up to
three columns with an inner diameter of 1 to 9 mm and a maximum length of
30 cm (11.8 in). Columns are attached to the brackets with special column clips
(P/N 064786; set of six clips).
Temperature Stabilizers (Optional)
Installation of a temperature stabilizer (standard bore, P/N 064548; microbore,
P/N 064650) ensures that (a) the temperature of the stationary phase remains
constant over the total column length and (b) the column and the eluent have the
same temperature during the analysis.
When these conditions are met, the analytical separation is performed at the
nominal temperature. This minimizes fronting and tailing of peaks, as well as
retention time variations.
Column ID Chip Card Slots
The TC column ID (identification) system lets you store column-specific
information on a memory card and read the information at any time. Up to four
column ID chip cards can be installed at the same time. The TC is shipped with
two column ID chip cards (P/N 5710.1500). An optional Column ID Kit
(P/N 066353) containing five chip cards is available.
See Section 2.23 for details about the column ID system.
