FRACTION COLLECTORS
Maintaining The Micro Fraction Collector/Spotter
Agilent offers three types of connecting
capillaries – each with different internal
d
iameters. We recommend replacing the
c
apillaries and flap septum every six
months – or when contaminated,
blocked, worn, or visibly damaged.
Before replacing the capillary, be sure to …
1. Place the transport unit of the micro
fraction collector/spotter in the
“Home” position.
2. Remove all installed trays from
the tray base.
3. Place the transport unit in the
“Change Parts” position.
4. Turn off the instrument.
5. Unscrew the micro fraction/spotter
capillary from the flow cell
of the detector.
