This durability allows for repeated use following careful cleaning and, where material permits, sterilization by autoclaving.
Manual Precision and Simple OperationNo power source or display requiredoperate the kit manually for precise control. The ergonomic syringe and adaptable tubing facilitate efficient maintenance without specialized training, making it practical for busy labs. Step-by-step instructions are included for correct operation.
FAQs of Dionex THERMO Flow cell syringe injection flushing kit 6078:
Q: How do I use the Dionex THERMO Flow Cell Syringe Injection Flushing Kit (6078) for cleaning HPLC flow cells?
A: Attach the appropriate connector and flushing tube to the syringe. Insert the tube into your flow cell assembly, then manually flush with the recommended laboratory solvent. Follow the included instructions to ensure proper technique for effective cleaning.
Q: What components are included in the flushing kit, and are they reusable?
A: The kit contains one syringe, one flushing tube, and two adaptors/connectors. All components are designed for repeated use and can be cleaned between maintenance cycles. Chemical-resistant materials ensure long-term reliability.
Q: When should I perform maintenance using this kit on my HPLC system?
A: Conduct flushing and cleaning as part of routine preventive maintenance, after sample batches prone to carryover, or whenever analytical accuracy begins to decline. Frequency varies depending on your workflow and sample types.
Q: Where can I verify compatibility of the flushing kit with my Dionex or Thermo Scientific flow cell model?
A: Check the specific compatibility listing provided with the kit or consult the supplier. The kit is broadly compatible with many Dionex and Thermo models, but verifying for your exact flow cell is recommended before use.
Q: What is the process for sterilizing the kit components before reuse?
A: Components made from polypropylene and stainless steel may be autoclaved provided their material tolerances are observed. Refer to the instructions for recommended sterilization techniques consistent with laboratory protocols.
Q: What benefits does using this manual flushing kit offer my laboratorys HPLC maintenance routine?
A: Manual operation offers precise control over the flushing process, improving cleaning efficiency and reducing sample carryover. Routine use helps prolong flow cell life and maintain optimal instrument performance without the need for powered equipment.
