Creating methods for UPC
HPLC normal-phase chromatography, the sole difference being the replacement of water
with liquid CO
3.1
Creating methods in Empower software
In Empower software, you first create an instrument method in a method set to specify your
instrument parameters. Create a processing method to specify how you want to process and view
the results.

Creating instrument methods for the UPC
Configure an instrument method for each of the following ACQUITY UPC
are part of your system:
•
ccBSM
•
SM-FL
•
CM-A or CM-30S
•
ccManager
•
PDA
•
Mass spectrometers

ccBSM instrument method settings
Follow these guidelines when setting up a method for the ccBSM:
•
Flow-rate range is 0.000 to 4.000 mL/min.
At a flow rate of 3.25 mL/min or less, maximum pressure 41,369 kPa (413 bar, 6000 psi).
•
•
Solvent A is always liquid CO
•
Solvent B can be one of four co-solvents.
