4 Preparation for Operation (Startup)

4.1 Overview

After you have unpacked, positioned, and connected the SRD described in sections 3.1
through 3.4 (→ page 17 and following pages), prepare the SRD for operation:
1. Connect drain tubing (→ section 4.2).
2. Connect the solvent reservoirs, and then connect the solvent supply lines to the
degassing channels (→ page 24).
3. Select one of the following alternatives:
• To operate the SRD with the pump of the UltiMate 3000 System
Connect the pump to the degassing channels (→ page 27).
• Standalone Operation
Connect the degassing channels as required by your application.

4.2 Connecting Drain Tubing

To discharge liquid leaks that might have accumulated in the interior, the SRD has a drain
port at the bottom right of the instrument.
Direct liquid leaks to waste through the drain system of the UltiMate 3000 system. The
required components are shipped with the UltiMate 3000 pumps, NCS-3500RS and NCP-
3200RS, but can be ordered also separately. The drain kit (part no. 6040.0005) includes all
required components and detailed installation instructions.
