WARNING

Always wear eye protection when working with solvents or any pressurized liquids.

AVERTISSEMENT

Porter toujours des protections pour les yeux lorsque vous manipulez des solvants ou

tout autre liquide sous pression.

WARNING

Use this product only as specified in this document. Using this system in a manner not

specified may result in injury or damage to the system.

AVERTISSEMENT

Veuillez suivre avec attention les indications figurant dans ce document lorsque vous

utilisez ce produit. Un usage différent le système causer un accident ou endommager

le système.

WARNING

PEEK tubing is polymeric material. Use caution when working with any polymer tubing

under pressure.

1. Always wear eye protection when in close proximity to pressurized polymer tubing.

2. Extinguish all nearby flames if using flammable solvents.

3. Do not use PEEK tubing that has been severely stressed or kinked.

4. Do not use PEEK tubing with tetrahydrofuran or concentrated nitric and sulfuric

acids.

5. Methylene chloride and dimethyl sulfoxide cause PEEK tubing to swell and greatly

reduce the rupture pressure of the tubing.

6. With high solvent flow rates (>40 ml/min), a static charge may build up on the

surface of the tubing. Electrical sparks may result.

AVERTISSEMENT

Le tubage PEEK est un matériau polymère. Prenez des précautions lorsque vous

travaillez avec un tubage polymère sous pression.

1. Porter toujours des protections pour les yeux lorsque vous vous trouvez à

proximité d’un tubage polymère sous pression.

2. Éteindre toutes les flammes avoisinantes si vous utilisez des solvants

inflammables.

3. Nes pas utiliser un tubage PEEK qui a déjà été sérieusement travaillé ou plié.

4. Nes pas utiliser un tubage PEEK avec du tétrahydrofurane ou des acides nitriques

et sulfuriques concentrés.

5. Le chlorure de méthylène et le sulfoxyde de diméthyle entraînent un gonflement

du tubage PEEK et réduisent fortement la résistance à la rupture du tubage.

6. Avec des débits d’écoulement de solvants élevés (>á 40 ml/min), une charge

statique puet se développer sur la surface du tubage. Des étincelles électriques

peuvent en résulter.

WARNING

For continued protection against fire hazard, replace fuses with those of the same type

and rating.

AVERTISSEMENT

Pour une protection permanente contre le danger d’incendie, remplacez les fusibles

existants avec des fusibles similaires, présentant les mêmes caractéristiques.

WARNING

Before handling any chemicals, refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet provided by

the manufacturer, and observe all relevant precautions.

AVERTISSEMENT

Avant de manipuler des produits chimiques, veuillez consulter la fiche de sécurité du

matériel fournie par le fabricant, et observer les mesures de précaution qui

s'imposent.

CAUTION

Failure to flush the system after daily use may result in system downtime. Refer to

Section 3.6, Flushing the SCOUT Column Selector After Use, for the recommended

procedure.

1.1 SCOUT Column Selector

Features

Overview

Applied Biosystems’ SCOUT® Column Selector is an

automated multi-column switching unit for use with the

BioCAD® family of workstations and the INTEGRAL™ 100Q

System. The SCOUT Column Selector allows flow to be

diverted to any one of six attached columns.

The SCOUT Column Selector offers increased flexibility for

both systematic methods development and routine execution

of experiments.

A new template added to your system software allows you to

program columns to be switched sequentially or repeatedly

depending on your application.

Features

The SCOUT Column Selector provides the following features:

• Allows you to screen a range of columns and media to

systematically determine the effect of selectivity on the

desired separation

• Includes column clips that are compatible with columns

up to 24 mm in diameter and 30 cm in length

• Is compatible with ID™ Sensor Cartridges to allow

sequential peak tracking and Poroszyme™ Immobilized

Enzyme Cartridges to allow online enzymatic digestions

• On BioCAD, BioCAD 700E, and VISION systems, can

be plumbed at any position in the tandem column or

three column configuration to allow for automated multi-

dimensional chromatography methods development

Parts of the

SCOUT

The SCOUT Column Selector includes the following parts

(shown in Figure 1-3 and Figure 1-4):

•Column clips—Allow you to mount and secure

columns easily.

•Hinge (stand-alone model only)—Allows you to tilt the

column holder for easy access to the outlet ends of the

mounted columns.

• Valves—Top valve and bottom valve (not shown) allow

you to connect columns for switching.

• Front panel—Includes yellow Column LEDs that

indicate the column in use and a red Fault LED that

indicates a valve switching problem. The stand-alone

unit also includes a green Power LED that is lit when

the unit is on.
