Optionally, your Smartline Pump 1000 can be fitted with an integrated
dynamic mixing chamber (Fig. 25). The Smartline Pump S1000 with
integrated dynamic mixing chamber is a special version of the S1000
pump. It is not possible to mount the dynamic mixing chamber into an
older version of the pump.

Connecting the integrated dynamic mixing chamber
1. Connect the pump head outlet to one of the mixing chamber inlets
(Pos. 6.2 in Fig. 4 on page 8).
2. In the case of a low pressure gradient system, the second inlet is
to be left closed with a blind fitting.
3. In the case of a binary high pressure gradient system, each of the
two chamber inlets is to be connected to one of the two pump head
outlets. If more then two components are involved in the HPG
system, the use of one or two additional t-connectors will be
necessary.
4. Connect the mixing chamber outlet (Pos. 6.1 in Fig. 4) to the
appropriate inlet of the injection valve. .
As delivered, the mixing chamber is configured with all segments
installed to provide the largest possible mixing volume. This is normally
suitable for analytical as well as semi-preparative requirements. To
achieve a lower mixing volume and shorter mixing time, the intermediate
segment of the mixing chamber can be removed.
Adjusting the mixing chamber volume
1. Disconnect the power supply of your pump.
2. Remove the six housing screws and remove the cover of the
pump.
