Installation
This chapter describes 717plus Autosampler installation and setup. It includes procedures
for making connections, voltage selection, and configuring optional hardware.

2.1 Site Requirements

Required Space
Before beginning the installation procedure, note the following autosampler site and utility
requirements
(Figure
Note:
The autosampler site requires room for a waste bottle and a needle wash solvent
reservoir.
• Bench space – Allow 21 x 23.5 inches (53 x 72 cm) for the autosampler. This space
includes ventilation sides 2.5 inches (6.3 cm) and back 3.5 inches (8.75 cm).
Note:
Ensure the bench top must be level to ensure proper drainage of the solvent
spill lines.
• Bench space with heater/cooler installed – Allow an additional three inches on the
back and on each side next to the air vents.
Note:
To avoid heater/cooler performance degradation, do not place the rear of the
unit in an enclosed space, under a shelf, or near a heat source.
• Column location – Ensure the red fluid line reaches the column. Lengthening this
line may result in peak broadening.
• Waste and solvent container location – Place the needle wash reservoir at bench
level to prevent siphoning.
