Optimizing the Column Compartment
For best performance results of the multicolumn compartment:
• Use short connection capillaries and place them close to the heat exchanger.
This reduces heat dissipation and excessive band broadening.
• See the Accessories and Consumables section for additional available heat
exchangers with various internal volumes to address certain applications in
terms of flow rates and dispersion volume optimization.
• Keep the left and right heat exchanger temperature the same unless you do
specific applications.
Use the Divider Assembly, which is a part of the Accessory Kit for G7116B,
whenever you work with different temperatures on the left and right heater
element to verify an optimized separation of both temperature zones. See
also “Install the Divider Assembly” on page 63.
• Keep the front cover closed during analysis.
