62 Agilent 1200 Preparative Pump User Manual
4 Using the Preparative Pump
Setting Up the Pump
Use the Setup Pump dialog box (Figure 16 on page 58 or Figure 17 on page 59)
to define a suitable error method. Then select Take Current Method and click
OK. The current method is immediately copied to the pump and stored as
error method and executed in case of an instrument error.
Seal Wash Pump: The settings for seal wash pump can be controlled in this
section. The seal wash can be switched off or a single wash can be started for a
user-specified time. In addition, you can choose to turn the seal wash on
periodically for a user-defined on-time. The on-time must be between 0.1 min
and 70% of the entire period.
Running the seal wash periodically will reduce the ware of the pump seals and
increase the maintenance interval of your pump. For more details read the
chapter “How to Configure the Seal Wash Function” on page 66.

The Control dialog box is also available for channel B on gradient pump

To prevent the pump from running dry you can specify the fillings of your
solvent reservoir in the Solvent Bottle Filling dialog box (Figure 21 on
page 63). This dialog box can be opened through Instrument > More
Preparative pump > Bottle Filling… or by clicking on the bottle icon in the
graphical user interface (Figure 14 on page 57).
