Safety and 
maintenance
Extensive support for troubleshooting and 
maintenance is provided by the Instant 
Pilot, Agilent Lab Advisor, and the 
Chromatography Data System. 
Safety-related features are leak detection, 
safe leak handling, leak output signal for 
shutdown of pumping system, and low 
voltages in major maintenance areas.
GLP features Early maintenance feedback (EMF) for 
continuous tracking of instrument usage 
in terms of seal wear and volume of 
pumped mobile phase with pre-defined 
and user settable limits and feedback 
messages. Electronic records of 
maintenance and errors
Housing All materials are recyclable

Type Specification Comments
For use with flow rates below 500 µl/min or for use without damper and mixer a vacuum 
degasser is required.
All specification measurements are done with degassed solvents.
