Solvent Recommendations
The maximum operating temperature of the detector and the boiling
point of the solvent will determine the type of solvents compatible
with ELSD-A120. High boiling point solvents such as
• N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP),
• Dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO),
• meta-Cresol (m-Methylphenol) and
• 1,2,4-Trichlorobenzene (TCB)
are not recommended. Greater care and attention to detector cleaning
procedures should be exercised with these solvents. It is
recommended that any solvent be flushed from the detector for
overnight and weekend storage.
