Connecting the separation column
The smart separation column (iColumn) is the heart of ion chromato-
graphic analysis. It separates the different components according to their
interactions with the column. Metrohm separation columns are equipped
with a chip where their technical specifications and history (start-up, oper-
ating hours, injections etc) are stored.
NOTE
Information regarding which separation column is suitable for your
application can be found in the
Metrohm Column Program
, the
product information for the separation column or it can be obtained
through your representative.
You can find product information for your separation column at
in the Ion Chromatography product area.
A test chromatogram and a leaflet accompanies every column. Detailed
information on special IC applications can be found in the corresponding
"
Application Bulletins
" or "
Application Notes
". You can find these
online at
in the Applications area or request
them from your responsible Metrohm representative free of charge.
CAUTION
New separation columns are filled with a solution and sealed with stop-
pers on both sides. Before inserting the column, ensure that this solu-
tion can be mixed with the eluent being used (follow the information
provided by the manufacturer).
