Cassette Temperature

The cassette temperature can either be set to not be controlled or to a certain
setpoint. This setpoint must be within the instrument's specified range (see
"Physical Specifications" on page 21).
The lowest applicable temperature is 10 °C below ambient temperature. The
highest temperature is 60 °C.
The instrument is ready after the cassette temperature reaches the setpoint
and stabilizes. A run can be started
The home values are activated at five points in your analysis:
• When a method is loaded.
• When you activate Run Method or Run Sequence from the RunControl menu.
• After injection is completed.
• After the stoptime has elapsed.
• After the entire analysis (including postconditioning) is completed.
Keep the cassette temperature above the dew point or decrease the ambient humidity.
N O T E
The instrument is specified to be operated at non-condensing conditions which is at
humidity below 80% at 31 °C (87.8 °F). Please be aware: if the temperature of the cassette
is below the dew point condensation might take place. Subsequently water condensate
from the ambient might lead to arcing and damage of the cassette or instrument.
