again ready for use.

16.3.3.2 Capillary connections
The micro flow cell is supplied with a low dead-volume fused silica capillary connection for
coupling with capillary columns (< 1 mm ID fused silica columns) as a standard.
Important:
Use proper eye and skin protection when working with solvents.
Note:
If the capillary connection is already installed properly, continue with step 11. If not, start
with step 1.
Warning:
When disconnecting the column, always release pressure slowly, or
damage to the column will occur. Tighten the low dead-volume coupling firmly to
prevent it from snapping out of the capillary. A sudden pressure drop will destroy
column performance and the pulse dampener.
