End caps
At delivery, all connectors on the flow kit, except those on the pump tubing, are covered
by protective end caps. The caps are removed during installation. Remember to save
the end caps as they are used to seal the tubing when the flow kit is removed and dis-
posed of (see Section 11.4 After the run, on page 180).
Test liquids
Wash and test liquids required for component testing should be prepared after mounting
a new flow kit. It is important that the liquids, which contain acetone are freshly prepared.
For details about volumes and concentrations required see description in Prepare a test,
on page109. A Test solution preparation protocol template is available on the ÄKTA ready
CD.
pH calibration
If pH is to be measured, the pH electrode should be calibrated and sanitized before in-
stalling the flow kit. pH calibration is described in pH calibration, on page 186.
