ICS-3000 Eluent Generator (EG)
The EG generates high purity acid or base eluents online from deionized
water. The EG can be configured for single- or dual-channel operation.
Each channel includes:
• A high precision programmable current source (power supply)
• A high pressure gas removal device that removes electrolysis gases
created during eluent generation
The following options must be ordered separately for installation inside
the EG:
• A disposable EluGen® cartridge to generate eluent. Each cartridge
contains 900 mL of the appropriate electrolyte concentrate solution.
• A Continuously Regenerated Trap Column (CR-TC) to remove any
extraneous contaminants from the deionized water source. The CR-
TC is electrolytically-regenerated, which allows it to operate for
extended periods without chemical regeneration.
ICS-3000 Eluent Organizer (EO)
The EO holds eluent reservoirs in a liner that contains spills and leaks. Up
to two EOs can be installed on top of the DC. Each EO accommodates up
to four 1-liter or 2-liter reservoirs or up to two 4-liter reservoirs. The EO
is typically ordered configured with four 2-liter reservoirs (P/N 062629).
All eluent reservoirs available for use with the DP/SP can be pressurized.
If you plan to pressurize the eluent reservoirs, the optional EO Regulator
Accessory and Stand (P/N 063493) is required.
The Regulator Accessory includes a pressure regulator and gauge
assembly with four outputs (for connections to four eluent reservoirs), as
well as the tubing and connection fitting required. If more reservoirs are
required, order a second regulator (P/N 064387).
