Introduction
This section outlines the steps needed to connect a column to ÄKTAprocess.
Important
Considerations for AxiChrom
columns
AxiChrom columns can be packed using ÄKTAprocess and Intelligent Packing.
Small diameter columns, up to 200 mm diameter, use ÄKTAprocess pumps to drive the
adapter hydraulically.
Larger AxiChrom columns, 300 mm diameter and above, use an AxiChrom Master con-
nected to the ÄKTAprocess Profibus connector.
See respective AxiChrom column manuals for information on hose connections.
For more details regarding using AxiChrom with ÄKTAprocess, refer to the AxiChrom
user manual.
Preparations
The air sensor alarm(s) before the column must be disabled before filling the system/col-
umn with liquid (Alarms:Air_Alarm:Disabled).
