1 Introduction
1.1 Instrument description
The 818 IC Pump is a serial dual piston pump especially developed for
ion chromatography and optimized for use with Metrohm ion
chromatographic instruments (e.g. 819 IC Detector and 820 IC
Separation Center). The 818 IC Pump operates with minimal residual
pulsation and has an excellent flow constancy. All wet parts of the
pump are metal free.
The 818 IC Pump is completely remote controlled by the Metohm
software «IC Net» (version 2.3 or higher). All functions are fast and
easily accessible via software and can be clearly arranged at the
monitor. To assure optimum operational reliability, both lower and
upper pressure limit values can be set. If such a limit is reached, the
pump switches itself off automatically. An additional purge valve allows
rapid removal of air from the pump system.
