The Dionex SC-CERS 500 is installed in the column compartment of the chromatography module right after the analytical column and before the conductivity detector cell.

Procedure

  1. Orient the Dionex SC-CERS 500 with the ELUENT IN port and the cable at the top; align the slots on the back of the Dionex SC-CERS 500 with the tabs on the panel.
  2. Press in, and then down, to lock the Dionex SC-CERS 500 in place.
  3. Lift up, then pull out to remove the Dionex SC-CERS 500. Make sure the Dionex SC-CERS 500 is plumbed properly, according to the selected mode of operation.

Refer to Installation for detailed instructions.

CAUTION

The membranes and screens in the Dionex SC-CERS 500 must be completely hydrated to maintain liquid seals and chromatographic performance. This requirement is achieved by maintaining the regenerant chambers full of the appropriate regenerant solution when in operation or full of water during storage. This will ensure that the membranes and screens remain properly hydrated.
