  • Page 8: General Description

    4. GENERAL DESCRIPTION 4.1 WORKING PRINCIPLE The HPLC Pump SDS 9414I is a dual piston solvent delivery system. The mechanism is designed with short piston stroke technology and only two check valves. This results in the low pulsation of a dual piston pump combined with the reliability of a single piston pump.
  • Page 9 SDS 9414i HPLC Pump While the delivery piston pushed the solvent volume out, the compensation piston, located on the pressure side, collects half of the volume. During return movement of the delivery piston, the collected volume is pumped from the compensation. The microprocessor controlled speed regulation leads to a highly stable speed of the D.C.

    SDS 9414i HPLC Pump These 40 MPa (400 bar or 6000 PSI) are indicating the pressure of the pump. The maximum pressure level should be set to a level which ensures to avoid any damage of the whole HPLC-system if a blockage of any part may occur. Always the weakest part has to be used for selecting the correct level.

    SDS 9414i HPLC Pump 5.6 ANALYSES TIME By pushing the [PROG] key the programming dialog is switched to the next menu. The display shows: As the pump is able to count times, the requested run time can be selected in this step. If the time is set to 0:0 the pump will start to run after pushing the [START] key and will stay under this condition until the [STOP] key will be pushed.
  • Page 19: Stop Delay Time

    SDS 9414i HPLC Pump The HPLC pump SDS 9414I has a built-in start delay time function which protects and therefore prolongs column's durability as a careful increase of pressure onto the column is possible. During the start delay time operation, the display shows the symbol “^” right before the RT.

    SDS 9414i HPLC Pump 6. INSTRUMENT SETUP 6.1 CHECK VOLTAGE Before connecting the pump to the mains, check the voltage shown on the type plate on the rear of the instrument. This voltage should be identical with the voltage of the existing power source.
  • Page 21 SDS 9414i HPLC Pump function (pressing the up and down key at the same time) with approx. 20 ml solvent. Close the relief valve (clockwise) and the pump is ready for operation. The priming of the pump with the help of a syringe as described above will only work as long as the whole system is closed, e.g.
  • Page 22: Instrument Operation

    The SDS 9414I is in STANDBY when its STOP LED is on. The pump is set to STANDBY when the [STOP] key is pressed. When the instrument is in RUN, the START LED is on. The SDS 9414I is set to RUN when the [START] key is pressed.
  • Page 23 SDS 9414i HPLC Pump MINIMUM PRESSURE ERROR The MINIMUM PRESSURE ERROR indicates that the pressure dropped below the preselected minimum pressure level for more than 1 minute. If there is no increase above the preset level during this time, the pump will stop to run and the display will show: Beside this optical signal an error message is activated through the interface to the controller, if this one is connected.
  • Page 24: Operation Modes

    SDS 9414i HPLC Pump 7.2 OPERATION MODES The SDS 9414I can be operated in 2 different modes: Constant Flow and Constant Pressure. In Constant Pressure mode the pump keeps the pressure constant by adjusting the flow. 7.2.1 CONSTANT FLOW MODE In Constant Flow mode, the pump delivers with a constant flow rate.
  • Page 25: Constant Pressure Mode

    SDS 9414i HPLC Pump 7.2.2 CONSTANT PRESSURE MODE If this mode is selected the pump delivers the volume at a constant pressure during a set period of time. The constant pressure mode can be selected by setting the value for constant flow during programming to 0.0 ml/min.
  • Page 26: Power Down Feature

    SDS 9414i HPLC Pump 7.3 POWER DOWN FEATURE In case of power failure, the pump software can react differently. If the power failure lasts less than one minute, the pump will start automatically again, as soon as the power is reconnected.
  • Page 27: Compressibility

    SDS 9414i HPLC Pump 8. COMPRESSIBILITY A general problem for constant flow delivery with piston pumps is the compressibility of the solvents under pressure. Any liquid shows a specific volume elasticity. If the liquid is influenced by pressure changes ∆p, the volume will change by ∆V. The volume V will become the same as before, if the pressure will be reduced to the original value again.
  • Page 28 SDS 9414i HPLC Pump A to B: suction of liquid during pressure p1 B to C: compressing the liquid from p1 to p2 C to D: delivery against pressure p2 D to A: changing from delivery to suction The compressibility will effect the constant of the liquid delivery depending on the pressure. To overcome this problem, the S 2100 is using a calculation program to correct the pressure depending change of the flow rate.
  • Page 29 SDS 9414i HPLC Pump For solvent mixtures of different organic solvents, the constant can be calculated by adding the constants of the different solvents in relation to their percentage in the mixture. For example: 50% H O, 20% Methanol, 30% Acetonitril F = 0.5 F(H...
