Linked Dual-Cartridge Configuration
In the linked dual-cartridge configuration, the EG contains two EGCs, linked
to a single pump. Note that the allowable eluent concentration for a linked
cartridge is less than when the cartridge is defined as independent. For details,
refer to the EGC manual. EGC manuals are included on the Thermo Scientific
Reference Library DVD (P/N 053891).
