GE AKTApure - Connection of External Modules

3.6 Connection of external modules
Introduction
The external modules are not installed in the instrument cabinet, but are connected via a UniNet-9
cable at the back of the system. it is possible to install up to six external modules with F-type connectors
and up to two external modules with D-type connectors at the same time.
Some of the external modules are also connected to the ÄKTA pure instrument by tubing. See the ap-
propriate section in Chapter 3 ÄKTA pure external modules, on page 87 for detailed instructions on
how to install this tubing, if applicable.
