Connecting the Pump to the Surveyor Autosampler Plus
The solvent outlet tubing is a 1/16 in. stainless steel tube that is used to deliver mobile phase
from the Surveyor MS Pump Plus to the Surveyor Autosampler Plus. The tubing, which is
pre-installed on the autosampler inlet, has an internal diameter of 0.020 in. A 1/16 in.
stainless steel nut and PEEK ferrule, Fingertight fitting is included to connect the tubing to
the outlet fitting of the pulse dampener of the MS pump.
To connect the MS pump to the inlet tubing of the autosampler
1. Place the Surveyor Autosampler Plus on top of the Surveyor MS Pump Plus. Locate the
autosampler inlet tubing (extending out of the column oven) to be connected to the
pump.
2. Carefully bend the Surveyor Autosampler Plus inlet tubing so that it passes through the
access port found on the bottom-right side of the Surveyor Autosampler chassis.
3. Connect the tubing to the outlet of the pulse dampener using the 1/16 in. stainless steel
nut and PEEK ferrule (P/N 00101-18088) included in the Surveyor MS Pump Plus
accessory kit. Be careful not to over-tighten the fitting.

Note
To decrease the gradient delay volume of your system, bypass the tubing behind the
column oven. This tubing allows the mobile phase to equilibrate to the requested column
oven temperature, but it also adds 250
L of gradient delay volume. To bypass this
tubing, disconnect it from port 5 of the injection valve, and then connect the pulse
dampener outlet directly to this port.
