Column Thermostat Temperature Calibration Procedure

Tools required Temperature measuring device (see note below)
Parts required Description
Calibrated temperature measuring device
For the measuring and calibration process Agilent Technologies recommends a
N O T E
thermometer with 0.1 °C precision. Contact the local Agilent Technologies support
representative for ordering information.
The figures in this procedure refer to a specific type of temperature sensor (Heraeus,
N O T E
Quat340, quartz surface-temperature measurement sensor). Other sensors may require a
different fixing.
1 Install the temperature sensor
2 Select the column-compartment temperature calibration mode in the user
3 Wait for the temperature to stabilize at the calibration temperature (36 °C).
4 Measure the temperature of the heat exchanger.
5 If the measured temperature deviates by more than ± 0.5 °C from the actual
6 Install the sensor at the measurement point on the right heat exchanger.
Limits
N O T E
After calibration, the measured temperature and the calibration temperature should be
within ± 0.5 °C. The maximum deviation which can be adjusted is ± 1.6 °C. If the measured
value and the calibration value differ by more than ± 1.6 °C, this is an indication that a
problem exists,

for the left heat exchanger.
Repeat the calibration procedure for the right heat exchanger.
