1 INTRODUCTION
This operator's manual contains information needed to install, operate,
and perform minor maintenance on the Thermo Scientific Dionex
AXP Metering Pump (P/N 063973) and the Thermo Scientific Dionex
AXP-MS Metering Pump (P/N 060925).
1.1 Description of the Dionex AXP/AXP-MS Pump
The Dionex AXP/AXP-MS high performance m
etering pump is
designed as a dependable metering pump for general laboratory or
industrial use.
The Dionex AXP pump flow rate can be set from 0.01 to 10.00
mL/min (in increments of 0.01 mL) with a precision of 0.5%.
The Dionex AXP-MS pump flow rate can be set from 0.01 to 1.00
mL/min (in increments of 0.01 mL) with a precision of 0.5%.
The low pulsation flow produced by the reciprocating, single-piston
pump is achieved by using an advanced rapid-refill design,
programmed stepper motor acceleration, and an internal pulse damper.
1.1.1 Pump Features
The Dionex AXP/AXP-MS Pump includes:
 Rapid refill mechanism to reduce pulsation
 PEEK™ pump head
 LED front panel readout of flow rate
 PRIME mode to flush out entrapped air bubbles upon start-up
 Flow adjustment in increments of 10 µL
 Microprocessor advanced control
 Digital stepper motor design to prevent flow rate drift
over time and temperature
 Rear panel RS-232 serial communications port for
complete control and status
 Remote analog inputs to control flow rate (optional)
1.1.2 Wetted Materials
Pump heads, check valve bodies, and tubing are made of PEEK. Other
materials are synthetic ruby and sapphire (check valve internals and
piston).
