The Dionex RFC-30 uses the formulas shown in Table 6 to calculate
current ranges. The Dionex RFC-30 sets the current to the minimum
value. You can select a different value, provided it is within the range. If
the calculated maximum current exceeds the absolute maximum allowed
for the suppressor type (see Table 7), the absolute value is used for the
upper limit of the range.
NOTE If the Dionex RFC-30 is in gradient mode (see
Section 3.7) the Dionex RFC-30 uses the highest
concentration entered to calculate the suppressor
current. This is normally the final concentration.
