How to Configure the Optimum Delay Volume
Delay Volumes in the Agilent 1260 Infinity Binary LC
Table 4 on page 42 and Table 5 on page 42show the component volumes
which contribute to system delay volume in the Agilent 1260 Infinity
Binary LC System .
Switching between configurations can be done in two ways:
• manually, by disconnecting and reconnecting capillaries
• automatically, using a 600 bar 2PS/6PT valve (optional)
