Leak and Waste Handling
Leak and Waste Handling
The Agilent InfinityLab LC Series has been designed for safe leak and waste
handling. It is important that all security concepts are understood and
instructions are carefully followed.
The solvent cabinet is designed to store a maximum volume of 8 L solvent. The
maximum volume for an individual bottle stored in the solvent cabinet should not
exceed 2 L. For details, see the usage guideline for the Agilent Infinity II Solvent
Cabinets (a printed copy of the guideline has been shipped with the solvent
cabinet, electronic copies are available on the Internet).
All leak plane outlets are situated in a consistent position so that all Infinity and
Infinity II modules can be stacked on top of each other. Waste tubes are guided
through a channel on the right hand side of the instrument, keeping the front
access clear from tubes.
The leak plane provides leak management by catching all internal liquid leaks,
guiding them to the leak sensor for leak detection, and passing them on to the
next module below, if the leak sensor fails. The leak sensor in the leak plane
stops the running system as soon as the leak detection level is reached.
Solvent and condensate is guided through the waste channel into the waste
container:
• from the detector's flow cell outlet
• from the Multisampler needle wash port
• from the Sample Cooler or Sample Thermostat (condensate)
• from the pump's Seal Wash Sensor (if applicable)
• from the pump's Purge Valve or Multipurpose Valve
