Liquid inside the degasser
C AU T I O N
In case a low boiling point solvent condensates or there is a leak, liquid can
accumulate inside the degasser chambers, and this will compromise
performance.
When this happens,
Purge all solvent channels with isopropanol.

 Keep unused channels filled with isopropanol.

Check compatibility of solvents with degasser and application
• Use the standalone standard degassers (G1322A or G7122A) for RI
applications, flow rates higher than 5 mL/min, with low boiling point
solvents (<60 °C) and with hexane, tetrahydrofuran and any halogenated
solvents.
• Use integrated or a standalone high-performance degasser (G4225A) for
all other applications.
If enough vacuum for the optimal degassing performance cannot be reached
or maintained (as indicated by yellow or red status LED in standalone
degassers, or specific error messages on integrated degassers), power cycle
the module.
If, after power cycling, vacuum still cannot be reached or maintained on
integrated degassers, use the Evacuation Mode, available in the instrument
control screen of Agilent Lab Advisor.
