2 Place the solvent cabinet on top of the module.
3 Place the bottle into the solvent cabinet and place a bottle head assembly
into the bottle. Ground the solvent bottle!
4 Connect the solvent tubes from the bottle head assemblies to the inlet
adapters of the pump. Fix the tubes in the clips of solvent cabinet and
preparative pump.
5 By holding a piece of sanding paper around the waste tubing connect it to
the electromagnetic purge valve (EMPV) and place it into your waste
system.
6 If the preparative pump is not part of an Agilent 1200 Series system stack
or placed on the bottom of a stack, connect the corrugated waste tube to the
waste outlet of the pump leak handling system.
In order to guarantee an error-free handling of any leakage that may occur in the system, all
modules of a stack must be thoroughly aligned on top of each other. Outstanding knobs at
the rear of the top covers of the modules and holes as counterparts at the rear of the
bottom covers of the modules will help to align the instruments nicely on top of each other
by making them slide into the correct position. This will then allow any possible spills to be
routed safely from one instrument to the next one with the help of the built in leak drainage
system. (Each module has a funnel to catch drops coming from the above instrument, from
there spills a lead through a waste drain tube into the leak pan and out from there through
an outlet on to the next module).
