Frequently asked questions

Is a vacuum degasser required after upgrading to a quaternary pump?

Yes, an Agilent 1100 Series vacuum degasser must be added because degassing is a must for low pressure mixing pumps.

What command must be entered to configure the upgraded pump?

The user must enter the TYPE G1311A command via the Control Module or ChemStation.

What happens if the pump status indicator turns red after installation?

This is normal behavior because the firmware requires a new TYPE command for the upgraded quaternary pump.
