Installing the Pump
Site Requirements
Bench Space
The quaternary pump dimensions and weight (see Table 1 on page 16) allow
to place the quaternary pump on almost any laboratory bench. It needs an
additional 2.5 cm (1.0 inches) of space on either side and approximately 8 cm
(3.1 inches) in the rear for the circulation of air and electric connections.
If the bench should carry a complete Agilent 1100 Series system, make sure
that the bench is designed to carry the weight of all the modules.
NOTE The pump should be operated in a horizontal position!
Environment
Your quaternary pump will work within specifications at ambient
temperatures and relative humidity as described in Table 1 on page 16.
CAUTION Do not store, ship or use your quaternary pump under conditions where
temperature fluctuations could cause condensation within the quaternary
pump. Condensation will damage the system electronics. If your quaternary
pump was shipped in cold weather, leave it in its box and allow it to warm
slowly to room temperature to avoid condensation.
