Setting Up a Test Sample Run

This instrument check demonstrates that the instrument is correctly installed
and connected. Please use a fused silica capillary with 40 cm effective length
and 50 µm inner diameter from the HPCE start-up capillary kit (part number
G1600-68700) with the green alignment interface (part number G7100-60210).
The instrument should be in CE mode.
Load chemicals from the Installation Qualification Chemical kit (part number
5063-6514) according to the table below. The Installation Qualification
Chemical kit contains:
• Buffer (20 mM borate, pH 9.3, 100 mL)
• Test sample (4-hydroxyacetophenone 1 mM, 3 mL)
• Conditioning solution (1.0 N sodium hydroxide, 100 mL)
