Required Operating Supplies by Customer

Special Notes: 1. For information on Agilent consumables, accessories and laboratory operating supplies, please visit http://www.chem.agilent.com/en-US/Products/consumables/Pages/default.aspx
Item Description, (including dimensions etc) G4218A ELSD Gas N2 (Typical) Vendor/Part Number (if applicable) N/A Recommended Quantity N/A

Other/Special Requirements

G4218A ELSD Gas requirements A supply of inert gas (typically nitrogen) is required to operate the detector. The gas supply needs to be free of oil, humidity and particles, as such contaminations will create background noise in the chromatograms and may damage the built-in pressure sensor. In case of such noise for example for newly installed gas lines, flush the gas lines for sufficient time (might take days) and consider additional filters. A manometer (part number G4218-60100) with filter (0.01 m) is available optionally. Pure gas is not required as the gas is only used as a carrier for the solid sample particles. Exhaust venting and drain requirements The exhaust from the detector must be directed into a fume hood or exhaust vent. If a vacuum is used, it should be moderate so as to avoid turbulence in the glass cell siphon. The potentially hazardous exhaust of evaporated solvent and sample must not be allowed to enter the laboratory atmosphere and any appropriate accessory like solvent filters should be disposed according to local environmental requirements. The drain tube must be directed to a suitable solvent waste container. The user is responsible for decontamination or recycling of any residue, regarding to local environmental requirements. Further requirements The detector is controlled via RS232, not via LAN/CAN, so it must be installed close to the control PC unless special data transmission systems are used. The length of the included straight female/female RS 232 cable is 1.7 m. Customer should have available HPLC grade Acetonitrile and water with a dry residue below 1 ppm or MS grade solvents.
