Fix connection suppressor – detector block
• Insert one of the column holders 8080 (6.2027.030, 6.2027.040
or 6.2027.050) in mounting rail 7979 and fasten coupling 9292 in
the column holder.

Attach pump tubings
• Loosen both tubing cartridges 44 from the holding clamp 99 by
pressing down snap-action lever 1010 and remove from
mounting pin 1212 on 753 Suppressor Module (see Fig. 1).
• Press contact pressure lever 55 on both tubing cartridges
down as far as it will go.
• Insert a length of pump tubing 3333 (6.1826.050) into each of
the tubing cartridges as shown in Fig. 7. The white-yellow
stopper 3434 must click into the corresponding holder on the
left-hand side of the tubing cartridge.
• Place the tubing cartridges on mounting pin 1212 and press
down on the right-hand side until snap-action lever 1010 clicks
into position on holding clamp 99. Take care that no kinks are
formed in the pump tubing.

connection 2222 (see Fig. 6) through one of the rear panel
openings 4141 or 4343 of the 733 IC Separation Center.
• Mount a PEEK compression fitting 3131 (6.2744.010) on the
end of inlet capillary 2525 and screw this on to coupling 3232
(6.2744.030) (see Fig. 7).
• Push coupling 3232 on to the outlet end of the first pump tubing
3333 (see Fig. 7).
• Mount suction tubing: cut a piece of PTFE Tubing 3030
(6.1803.020) to the desired length.
• Mount a PEEK compression fitting 3131 (6.2744.010) on one
end of PTFE tubing 3030 and screw this on to coupling 3232 (see
Fig. 7).
• Push coupling 3232 on to the inlet end of the first pump tubing
3333 (see Fig. 7).
• Immerse the other end of the suction tubing in a vessel
containing regeneration solution (normally 20 mmol/L H

and fix in place.
• Pull outlet capillary 2626 marked with "Waste" at suppressor
connection 2222 (see Fig. 6) through one of the rear panel
openings 4141 or 4343 of the 733 IC Separation Center.
• Lead outlet capillary 2626 to a sufficiently large waste container
and fix in place.
