Degasser 20DG User Manual V7632A, Version 1.1
Cleaning and Caring for the Device
CAUTION! Intruding liquids can cause damage to
the device!
Place solvent bottles next to the device or in a
solvent tray.
Moisten the cleaning cloth only slightly.
All smooth surfaces of the device can be cleaned with a mild,
commercially available cleaning solution, or with isopropanol.
Preventative Measures
To ensure that the degasser can constantly run at maximum
capacity, pay attention to the following:
Only use ultrapure solvent as mobile phase. If water is used as
solvent, it also has to fulfill this standard, i.e. be filtered and
deionized.
Filter all solvents to prevent clogging.
Use only ultrapure gas to dry the degasser.
Properly flush all capillaries and tubes before installing them.
Observe the information on switching off the degasser.
