1 Installing the Fluorescence Detector
Note:
The fluorescence detector should be the last module in the flow system. An additional detector should
be installed before the fluorescence detector to prevent any overpressure to the quartz cell (maximum
20 bar) . When working with detector behind the FLD (on own risk) determine the backpressure of this
detector first by
- removing the column and the last detect and measuring system pressure at the application flow rate.
- connecting the last detector (without column and FLD) and measuring the system pressure with flow.
- the difference in measured pressure is due to the back pressure generated by the last detector and is
the pressure seen by the FLD.
