  • Page 11: Overview Of The Binary Pump

    Introduction Overview of the Binary Pump Overview of the Binary Pump The Agilent 1290 Infinity Binary Pump comprises two identical pumps integrated into one housing. Binary gradients are created by high-pressure mixing. A degassing unit is included for applications that require best flow stability, especially at low flow rates, for maximum detector sensitivity.

  • Page 12: Pump Principle

    Introduction Pump Principle Pump Principle The Binary Pump is based on a two-channel, dual-piston in-series design which comprises all essential functions that a solvent delivery system has to fulfill. Metering of solvent and delivery to the high-pressure side are performed by two pump assemblies which can generate pressure up to 1200 bar.
  • Page 13 Introduction Pump Principle Figure 1 The hydraulic path In the user interface the solvent in use for each channel can be selected in order to get optimum flow and composition accuracy. Although selecting the right solvent is not required for low ripple, especially for composition accuracy across pressure it is vital for the compensation algorithm to use the right solvent properties.
  • Page 14 Introduction Pump Principle the correct volumetric flow while sample passes through the detector it is necessary to correct for density related flow inaccuracies in the pump module. In order to always deliver the best possible pressure stability, the pump constantly tunes the delivery cycle for elasticity and dead volume effects. With this feature the pump is able to deliver a stable and accurate flow without requiring individual calibration settings.
