4.4 Set Up the Eluent Reservoirs
1. Rinse the eluent reservoirs with ASTM Type I (18 megohm-cm) filtered and
deionized water.
NOTE Always use ASTM Type I (18 megohm-cm) filtered and
deionized water to prepare eluent and regenerant or to
rinse eluent reservoirs.
2. If necessary, prepare the eluent for the application. For instructions, refer to
the manual for the column. Column manuals are provided on the Dionex
Reference Library CD-ROM (P/N 053891).
3. Fill the reservoirs with prepared eluent or deionized water.
4. Locate the end-line filters (P/N 045987) provided in the ship kit (DP Ship Kit,
P/N 062463; SP Ship Kit, P/N 063342).
5. Before installation, thoroughly rinse the end-line filter with ASTM Type I
(18 megohm-cm) filtered and deionized water to remove any loose particles.
6. Install an end-line filter on the end of each reservoir’s eluent line.
7. Install the reservoir caps, making sure the end of each line extends to the
bottom of the reservoir, and that each filter is submerged in liquid. This
prevents air from being drawn through the eluent lines. Hand-tighten the caps.
NOTE A Dionex High Pressure Inline Filter (P/N 044105) can
be used to remove particulates down to 0.45 micron
from eluent. Connect the inline filter between the pump
outlet and the eluent inlet port on the injection valve.
For details, see the instructions provided with the inline
filter.
