Analyze how to maintain the chromatography infusion pump

The chromatography infusion pump is a key component of the liquid chromatograph. Their function is to deliver the mobile phase to the chromatography system at a stable flow rate or pressure. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


In chromatographs with an online degassing device, the mobile phase first passes through the degassing device and is then fed to the chromatography column. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


The stability of the infusion pump is directly related to the repeatability and accuracy of the analysis results. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


Several maintenance tips for chromatography infusion pumps: 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


1. When using methanol as mobile phase, please pay attention to your own protection and the protection of the Environment, waste liquid Fill into empty bottles and process centrally. Do not pour into drains. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


2. Before using the chromatographic infusion pump, pay attention to leak detection and check whether there are any leaksThere are leaks at the sealing point and on the pump body. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


3. It is strictly forbidden to start the pump motor without the mobile phase flowing to avoid wear of the piston seal ring. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


4. When testing the pump flow performance, the container used to collect the liquid should be a container with a small bottle neck to prevent the solution from evaporating during the collection process and affecting the measurement accuracy. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


If necessary, it should be sealed and stored in a dry container to avoid mold on the optical system. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


5. For infusion pumps with metal pump bodies, avoid using mobile phases that contain halide ions or mobile phases that can generate halide ions. If such mobile phases need to be used, it is recommended to use a pump: infusion pump made of non-metallic materials for the bodyruse. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


After use, deionized water should be used immediately to clean the pump housing and all chromatography system piping. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


6. The mobile phase used must be of HPLC grade or analytical grade, especially the configured mobile phase; 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


It must be filtered before use. Remove particulate contaminants and other substances (use a 0.45 μm filter membrane to filter)9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


7. If the infusion pump is not used for a long time, use a syringe to add deionized fluid at the end of the analysis Suck water through the special pump head cleaning hole to clean the pump body and piston rod. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


To extend the life of the seal ring and gemstone piston rod. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer


8. When repairing or maintaining the liquid line of the chromatographic infusion pump, the power supply of the instrument should be belowbe broken. Please do not open the case cover if you are not a maintenance person. 9SCTextile Testing Instruments, Testing Equipment Manufacturer
