Install or replace the column required for the method after placing the filled solvent bottles on the tray so that old mobile phase cannot pass through the new column.
Notes:
  • Power-on the system before installing or replacing the column to ensure proper RF column identification when the CHC door is closed. See Powering-on the system.
  • Waters BioSuite columns and some non-Waters columns may leak when connected with the tool-free fitting. In this case, install an adapter between the column and the tool-free fitting. See Installing the tool-free fitting adapter.
