1. Fasten the splitter with the fastening screwa to the left side of the ELSD.

2. Connect the following tubings to the splitter kit:

• Outletf from the column

• Connection tubingd to the fraction collector

NOTE

Do not connect the splitter to the ELSD nebulizer before having adjusted the ﬂow rate to

1mL/min.

Recommendation:

For preparative chromatography applications connect the column to the splitter after the condi-

tioning step.

5.6.2 Adjusting the ﬂow rate of the ELSD splitter

1. Remove the protecting sticker from the flow adjustment knob and keep the predefined

adjustment.

2. Start the pumping system with the appropriate eluent for your application.

3. Check the flow rate. If the flow rate is not adjusted at 1mL/min, adjust the flow rate with

the flow adjustment knob until the delivered flow rate represents about 1drop/second,

which is about 1mL/min (±10%). Measure the flow rate using a graduated cylinder
