Running the Pump Elasticity Calibration

Running the Pump Elasticity Calibration from the Agilent Lab Advisor Software

When

The initial calibration is done at the factory. It only needs to be repeated after replacement of major pump parts (mainboard, pump drive).

Tools required

Qty.		p/n	Description
1		8710-0510	Open-end wrench 1/4-5/16 inch

Prerequisites

Place all bottle heads in to a bottle of HPLC-grade water.

NOTE

Make absolutely sure that the pump is very thoroughly flushed with the solvent to be calibrated before starting the procedure! Any trace of other solvents or the smallest air bubble inside the flow path definitely will cause the calibration to fail!

NOTE

If a solvent selection valve is installed flush all four solvent channels to avoid that air from a dry solvent intake tube is drawn into the flow path upon initialization.

Select the pump elasticity calibration from the test selection menu.
Start the test and follow the instructions.

NOTE
Make sure to release the pressure by opening the purge valve when the test has completed. Otherwise the pump may generate an overpressure error.
