Installing the plunger seal wash system 3-17
Integral vacuum degasser vent tubing
To install the vent line, place the unattached end of the vent tubing in a waste
container. The container catches any incidental leaks or condensates from the
degasser.
Using the degasser
Electrical power is supplied to the degasser whenever you power-on the pump.
With the pump’s switch set to On, the degasser operates automatically while
you perform HPLC runs. There are no controls to adjust as it removes gases
from the eluents. For additional information, see page 4-2 .
Installing the plunger seal wash system
The plunger seal wash system is an optional accessory for all of the
1500-series pumps. The seal wash solvent lubricates the plunger and flushes
away any solvent or dried salts forced past the plunger seal from the
high-pressure side of each piston chamber. This wash cycle extends the life of
the seals.
Once you install the seal wash option, use it at all times during instrument
operation to protect plungers and seals.
