3 Using the Module
Install the Thermal Equilibration Device

installed columns in the way that the twist-lock clips are located at the top of
the device.
3 Guide capillaries (and column ID tag cords, if installed) through silicone side
covers.

InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Devices that point towards the valve.
5 Turn twist-lock clips with the hex-driver to fix the InfinityLab Thermal
Equilibration Device in place.
6 Guide the capillaries through the recesses provided at the top and bottom of
the module.
