Mode Of Operation - Agilent Technologies 1220 Infinity II LC Series User Manual

Bench space
If using the cooling module together with the Agilent 1220 Infinity II LC System, the LC
system needs an additional 15 cm of space on the left side (view from the front).
Moreover, the module needs approximately 10 cm (3.9 in) at the rear and the left side for air
circulation.
Environment
NOTE
Condensation within the module can damage the system electronics in case of improper
use or storage!
Of the cooling module was shipped in cold weather, leave it in its box and allow it to warm
slowly to room temperature to avoid condensation.
The cooling module will work within specifications at ambient temperatures and relative
humidity as described in chapter 9 (see Tab. 4)

4. MODE OF OPERATION

The cooling module for the sample tray of the Agilent 1220 Infinity II LC System is firmly
mounted on the LC. It is designed to temper the sample tray from 5 ⁰C to 40 ⁰C.
The module is controlled by the delivered SIM software (possible options: driver for
OpenLAB CDS ChemStation/EZChrom/2.x or a standalone version).
The original sample tray is modified by a metal plate beneath the sample tray. This plate is
cooled with a Peltier element. Heat is drawn outside the system using a heat exchanger with
circulating cooling water.
The metal plate beneath the sample tray (for 100 x 1.8 ml vials) transmits the temperature to
the sample vials. During cooling, condensation will appear in the system. The condensed
water is safely guided out of the module.
The cooling module contains its own power supply and is switched on separately.
Communication of the cooling module with the stand-alone software or the OpenLAB driver
takes place via the local network.
If the standalone version is used, the APG Remote interface will transmit the system status.
