Switch on binary pump flow.
Daily Inspection and Maintenance
Verify that power and signal cables are firmly connected and not under strain.
Inspect all user- serviceable high pressure tubes and transfer lines for crimping or very tight bends. Replace as necessary.
Wipe up any visible liquid spills or condensation on or near the instrument.
Verify that all covers are securely fastened to the frame.
Inspect all reservoirs to ensure an adequate solvent supply.
Prime the wash pump and modifier pumps. Check that the purge valve reseals without leaking.
Empty all waste containers.
Check that the exhaust line is attached to a ventilation system, and that the ventilation system is drawing.
If an inlet step- down regulator is used with a gas supply system, check that the inlet pressure is between 40 and 70 bar.
Check the integrity of the SFC Flow path (that is, that column, flow cell etc have not been removed).
With the system running, visually inspect unions and tees for leaks. Run diagnostic leak test for added sensitivity.
Check CO₂ air monitor, if available, for suitable exposure level [< 5000 ppm CO₂].
