Making fluidic connections 2-11
Connecting the outlet tube
Tip: Leave the instrument end of the outlet tubing disconnected until
you have primed the pump and flushed the system as described in
“Preparing the 515 pump” on page 3-13.
2. After you prime the pump and purge the system, press the free end of
the tubing assembly into the injector or next device in your HPLC
system and finger-tighten the compression screw. Then use the
5/16-inch wrench to tighten the screw another 1/8 turn.
Connecting for high-pressure gradient operation
The figure below shows recommended plumbing configurations when you use
two or three remotely controlled 515 pumps for high pressure gradients. If
your application requires high-pressure gradient delivery with minimal delay
volumes, plumb the pumps as shown in the figure below (without using the
optional mixer). If your application requires high-pressure gradient delivery
with minimal compositional ripple, install the optional mixer, part number
WAT051518.
