1. Overview
The Model 210D front panel houses the UV detector lamp switch, Rheodyne injection valve, prime/purge
valve, pressure gauge, and the storage
compartment. In the storage compartment
are the LED display for the column
temperature, and the vacuum degas pressure
gauge (shown above). An accessories kit is
included with your 210D. In the kit are two
PEEK finger tight nuts (Alltech part # 32233)
for column connection, a spare 1/16"
stainless steel fitting (Valco part ZN1) and
ferrule (Valco part ZF1S6), a flange fitting
(Upchurch part 203X) and ferrule
(Upchurch part 240X) for the solvent recycle valve, a 20mL priming syringe (Sigma Aldrich part Z248037),
and a 100µL glass injection syringe (SGE part 005300).
On the right hand side of the 210D is the column compartment, which gives you access to the column heater,
pump head(s), solvent recycle valve, and the detector housing. Open the column compartment by loosening
the two captive thumbscrews and lifting off the cover. Use the picture below to familiarize yourself with the
interior of the column compartment.

On the right hand side of the 210D is the column compartment, which gives you access to the column heater, pump head(s), solvent recycle valve, and the detector housing. Open the column compartment by loosening the two captive thumbscrews and lifting off the cover.

    Power supply jack 6. Power Supply Your 210D comes with a universal (115V or 230V) benchtop 12 volt power supply (shown at right). Plug the small power source cord into the jack on the left hand side of the LC. Plug the larger power cord into a wall outlet.

Note for those who have the 4 or 6 channel data system upgrade: Unless you have connected an external detector to the 210D, the column temperature will display on channel 3, and the detector cell temperature will display on channel 4.

    HPLC Model 210D Expected Performance This chromatogram shows the 210D UV detector response to a BTX sample (benzene, toluene, and ortho xylene). Description: UV 254 Sample: 20µL 100ppm BTX Column: 15cm C18 5µ Mobile phase: 70% Isopropyl Alcohol, 30% water at 1.0mL/minute...
  • Page 10 Model 210D Expected Performance The first chromatogram is a UV separation of 5ppm BTX with an isocratic 210D system. The second chromatogram shows the same run after using PeakSimple’s data smoothing function. Short term up/down noise is a function of pump refill. Binary systems are therefore noisier than isocratic systems. PeakSimple’s smoothing feature can reduce the pump noise for a clearer picture of your data.

  • Page 12: General Information

    Short term up/down noise is a function of pump refill. Most other manufacturers smooth data inside detector. SRI does not, so pump noise is visible. Binary systems are therefore noisier than isocratic systems. PeakSimple’s smoothing feature can reduce the pump noise so you can more clearly picture your data. Pump noise peaks are much narrower than data peaks, and do not obscure, esp after smoothing is applied.
