22 1260 Infinity Micro Degasser Service Manual
3 Installing the Micro Vacuum Degasser
Flow Connections to the Micro Vacuum Degasser
3 If the micro vacuum degasser is not used with an Agilent 1260 Infinity
pump, connect the waste tube from the accessory kit to the waste
outlet and place into your waste system.
4 Put the bottle head assemblies into solvent bottles containing your
mobile phase.
5 Connect the solvent tubes from the bottle head assemblies to the inlet
connectors A through D (typically the upper connection of the channel)
of the micro vacuum degasser. Use the mounting tool shown in Figure 7
on page 22 to fix the tube screw. Fix the tubes in the clips of the micro
vacuum degasser.
Figure 7 Mounting Tool
6 Connect the outlet tubes to the output ports (typically under connection
of the channel) of the micro vacuum degasser. Use the mounting tool
shown in Figure 7 on page 22 to fix the tube screw.
7 Prime the degasser before first use (see “Priming the Degasser” on
page 24).
Atmospheric gases can diffuse through the tubing and dissolve in the mobile phase
solvents. For best chromatographic results, keep the length of tubing between the micro
vacuum degasser and your pump as short as possible.
