5 How to Optimize the Performance of Your Module

Using Solvent Calibration Tables

Importing Solvent Calibration Tables

RC.NET based Agilent graphical user interfaces (ChemStation, EZChrom

Elite, OpenLab etc.) include data for most commonly used solvents in

HPLC. This data contains solvent properties and is used for optimum

pump control in order to ensure best flow and composition accuracy.

If your solvent is not included to the software, please check the Agilent

web site

http://www.chem.agilent.com/_layouts/agilent/downloadFirmware.aspx?whid=69761

for additional libraries (registration required), which also provides updates

and optimized data.

If your solvent is neither available in the user interface nor in the library,

please use generic solvents. "Generic aqueous" gives good results for most

solvent mixtures with at least 50 % water, which have similar properties

as pure water. For other solvents with high organic percentage, "Generic

organic" gives a good approximation.

Importing Solvent Calibration in ChemStation

1 Go to menu Instrument > Instrument configuration.

2 In the Instrument Configuration screen choose your module and click

Configure.

3 Click Configure Solvent Type Catalogs.

4 In Solvent Type Catalogs click Import.

5 Navigate to the location of the solvent calibration table and click Open.

6 The new solvent will now appear in the Solvent Type Catalogs.

7 The imported solvent is now available for selection as a solvent type,

see Table 4 on page 63.
