Flow connections between the modules of the Vanquish system are guided through either the tubing chase in the devices or the guide holes or capillary clips of the devices.
Tubing Chase with Tubing Guides
To guide certain tubes and lines from the top module to the bottom module in the Vanquish system stack, the stackable modules have a tubing chase on the inside right. The tubing chase provides four tubing guides.
Each guide can hold up to three tubes or lines. In each module, push the tube (or line) into the appropriate guide.
No. | Use for |
---|---|
1 | Solvent tubing (up to three solvent lines) |
2 | Solvent tubing (up to three solvent lines) |
3 | Wash liquid tubing (seal wash, autosampler needle wash) |
4 | Detector waste line |
Tubing Brackets
Tubing brackets are available for holding the tubing in place. Slip the bracket side onto the drain pipe.
Dual System Arrangements
The number of tubes may exceed the capacity that the tubing guides can hold. In this case, it is recommended to place the solvent lines in the tubing guides and route any additional tubes freely in the tubing chase.
Guide Holes and Capillary Clips
Guide holes and capillary clips are provided at specific positions on the system modules. Route flow connections from one module to the next module in the Vanquish system through the appropriate guide hole or capillary clip when instructed to do so in the manual.
