Installing the InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Device
The InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Device occupies the top row of the Multicolumn Thermostat (MCT) (1, 5). Therefore, Quick Connect Heat Exchangers and columns cannot be installed in the top row. Up to 6 columns can be installed in the MCT when two InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Devices are installed at the same time.

NOTE
Divider assembly cannot be installed in the MCT together with the Thermal Equilibration Device at the same time.
WARNING
Hot Surfaces
When an InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Device is installed, it might be hot.
- Allow the InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Device to cool down before removing it and performing any procedures with column/valve installation/deinstallation.
-
Check that the column in use is no longer than 30 cm.
-
Place the InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Device covering one or more installed columns in the way that the twist-lock clips are located at the top of the device.
-
Guide capillaries (and column ID tag cords, if installed) through silicone side covers.
-
To avoid obstruction of the capillary guidance, remove the side covers of the InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Devices that point towards the valve.
NOTE
This measure is only necessary if several columns are connected to the column selection valve and two InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Devices are installed in one MCT.
-
Turn twist-lock clips with the hex-driver to fix the InfinityLab Thermal Equilibration Device in place.
-
Guide the capillaries through the recesses provided at the top and bottom of the module.
NOTE
This measure prevents the capillaries from being squeezed through the doors.
-
Close the MCT door.
-
Let the system equilibrate before beginning the analysis.
