Using Solvent Calibration Tables

Importing Solvent Calibration Tables
RC.NET based Agilent graphical user interfaces (ChemStation, EZChrom Elite,
OpenLAB etc.) include data for most commonly used solvents in HPLC. This
data contains solvent properties and is used for optimum pump control in
order to ensure best flow and composition accuracy.
If your solvent is not included to the software, please check the Agilent web
site
additional libraries (registration required), which also provides updates and
optimized data.
If your solvent is neither available in the user interface nor in the library,
please use generic solvents. "Generic aqueous" gives good results for most
solvent mixtures with at least 50 % water, which have similar properties as
pure water. For other solvents with high organic percentage, "Generic organic"
gives a good approximation.
Importing Solvent Calibration in ChemStation
1 Go to menu Instrument > Instrument configuration.
2 In the Instrument Configuration screen choose your module and click Configure.
3 Click Configure Solvent Type Catalogs.
4 In Solvent Type Catalogs click Import.
5 Navigate to the location of the solvent calibration table and click Open.
The new solvent will now appear in the Solvent Type Catalogs.
The imported solvent is now available for selection as a solvent type in the
pump's method parameters.
