After you have installed the slide-in module in the enclosure, set up and restart the device.

Follow these steps

  1. Set up the slide-in module:

  1. Connect the slide-in module and set up flow connections (see Installation).
  2. Prepare the slide-in module for first-time operation (see Preparing the Device for Operation).
  3. If you installed a replacement slide-in module, update the instrument configuration in the chromatography data system accordingly.
  1. Prepare all other modules of the Vanquish system for operation and restart them. Refer to the Operating Manuals for the modules.

  2. Before starting an analysis, let the chromatography system equilibrate and be sure that it is ready for operation.

  1. From the Chromeleon software, perform performance qualification for the pump:

    • Run the pump-specific Performance Qualification tests (PQ tests) (= Flow Precision Test and Gradient Accuracy Test). For details, refer to the Operational and Performance Qualifications manual.

    • When the tests are completed, execute the QualificationDone command.
