3. For each reservoir bottle, ensure that the ends of the solvent delivery tubes approach, but
do not touch, the bottom of the bottle, and rest the reservoir bottle on the stand below the
solvent delivery tube.
B.4.2 Purging the fluidics
If the solution bottle runs dry, air will enter the tubing and affect the performance of the
instrument. If this happens, you must purge the fluidics. Simply replacing a bottle does not
require you to purge the fluidics. See the ACQUITY RDa Detector online Help for details.
Requirement:
Ensure that the end of the tubing is fully submerged in the solvent in the
reservoir bottle.
