Installing Capillaries
In May 2013, Agilent has introduced new UHP-FF fittings, which are designed
for improved robustness and ease of use. Previous fittings require careful
handling. Therefore it is important to know, which fittings are used in the
system.
The figure below illustrates the differences between new and previous
capillaries.

with nose
Figure 12 Previous bio-inert capillary and fitting
For handling instructions of capillaries and fittings, used in modules before delivery of the
new UHP-FF fittings (introduced in May 2013), refer to “Installation of Stainless Steel
Cladded PEEK Capillaries” on page 302.
To work on bio-inert capillaries produced before May 2013, you will need a 1/4 inch
wrench instead of the 5 mm mounting tool.
