Good Laboratory Practice, and consult your organization's safety
representative for guidance.

Considerations specific to the 515 HPLC Pump

Note:
When you use the instrument, follow generally accepted procedures for
quality control and methods development.
If you observe a change in the retention of a particular compound, in the
resolution between two compounds, or in peak shape, immediately determine
the reason for the changes. Until you determine the cause of a change, do not
rely on the separation results.
Note:
The Installation Category (Overvoltage Category) for this instrument is
Level II. The Level II Category pertains to equipment that receives its
electrical power from a local level, such as an electrical wall outlet.
