Connecting the Tubings

The Smartline Manager 5000 with degasser unit can only be used in
combination with the Smartline Pump 1000. A special gray connection
cable (G0649) must be installed on the back side to ensure the
functionality of the degasser unit. To guarantee the electrical power
supply of the Smartline Manger 5000 by the Smartline Pump 1000 the
devices must be placed in a tower, where the Smartline Manager 5000 is
arranged on the Pump 1000 (see Figure 9). As soon as the Smartline
Pump 1000 is switched on the vacuum pump of the degasser unit will
operate.
Smartline Tower Arrangement
Solvent lines to be degassed are connected to the Vacuum Degasser's
front panel ports, as detailed below. Unused ports must be plugged with
the blind fittings to enable the degasser to operate at its peak level of
performance.
To make a proper tubing connection, please follow the instructions and
scheme. The Smartline Manager 5000 accessory kit is equipped with pre-
cut PFTE tubings (see also Table 3). A colour identification will help to
install the compatible tubings.
All supplied tubings are pre-cut and should be installed to bring
about the shortest distance between the connecting ports.
1. Run a blue marked 1 m solvent line of 1/8" O.D. x 1/16" I.D.
PTFE chromatography tubing from the solvent supply to the
Vacuum Degasser.
2. Install at the one end of the solvent tubing the eluent filter.
