n Setting the compressibility of solvent《COMP》
Although the instrument corrects the
compressibility to suppress pulse increase
caused by the effect of the compressibility
of the solvent, setting a compressibility
suitable for the solvent used enables more
accurate correction.
Input the compressibility (GPa)
-1
with the
numeric keypad and press [Enter]. The
initial value is 0.45.
Single solvent
Set the compressibility according to the table.
Mixture of water and organic solvent
If the concentration of the organic solvent is 50 % or less, "0.45" is recommended for
the compressibility of water. If the concentration is more than 50 %, make the value
closer to the compressibility of organic solvent according to the mixture ratio.
Example) When the ratio between water and acetonitrile is 50 : 50, set "0.45".
When the ratio between water and acetonitrile is 30 : 70, set "0.75".
In other cases or when rigorous adjustment is required
1
Connect a resistance tube (or column) that can create pressure similar to the
desired delivery pressure at 1.0 mL/min or less and wait until delivery becomes
stable.
