ABSTRACT 21

Agilent 1260 HT Sample Prep System Operation Manual

1General Information

1.1 Overview

Agilent’s high temperature sample preparation system is designed for routine dissolution and filtration

of polymer solutions at temperatures up to 260 °C. Controlled heating and careful shaking of the

samples assists dissolution, and a unique hand pipettor device, fitted with an interchangeable frit

magazine, efficiently filters and dispenses the hot solution directly into autosampler vials with minimal

handling. The vials then can be crimped and transferred directly into the high temperature carousel.

1.3 Unpacking

Care has been taken to ensure that the instrument should be received in proper condition. The

packing and protection are designed for normal hazards of road, rail or air transit. Any damages to

the container or instrument should be reported immediately to your local distributor or to Agilent,

Inc. It is recommended that the shipping container be kept, if possible, for re-shipment or return to a

service centre.

Examine the shipping box for visible signs of exterior damage. Unpack the instrument and examine

for transit damage. Refer to local manual lifting guidelines and regulations. It is recommended that

instrument be lifted by a minimum of two people. Check that all items on the packing list are

included.

Notify your local distributor or Agilent of any damage or missing items.

This instrument is heavy (40kg)

1.3.1 Packing list

Sample Preparation System

Hand pipettor

10 x Filter magazines fitted with 2 µm frits

1 pack of sample preparation vials (20 mL, 100)

1 pack of aluminium crimp caps (100)

2” Exhaust ducting (2M)

2” Jubilee clip

4 mm nylon tubing for gas purge (2M)

1.4 Location

The Sample Preparation System must be supported by a sturdy, level bench. Preferably

avoid exposure to direct sunlight.

The unit must be sited in a fume cupboard or suitably extracted environment when used with

hazardous and dangerous chemicals.

Provide adequate space around the unit to allow for the motion of the horizontal shaker.

Agilent 1260 HT Sample Prep System Operation Manual

Ensure that the power switch & appliance power connector situated at the rear of the unit

remain easily accessible at all times.

Do not use this equipment in hazardous atmospheres or with hazardous materials for which it

was not designed.

1.5 Utility Requirements

1.5.1 Electrical Power

Single phase mains power is required. The instrument is designed for connection to a Cat II

installation.

Before plugging in the power cable, ensure the instrument voltage rating matches your local

power supply.

Use only a supply with protective grounding.

The correct fuses should be fitted:

230V (AC): 2x 250V 5A F HBC 20 mm fuses (inlet)

1x 250V 5A FF HBC (heater).

RISK OF FIRE, REPLACE FUSES AS MARKED!

THE UNIT IS DOUBLE-FUSED. DISCONNECT POWER CORD BEFORE

REMOVING COVERS!

1.5.2 Extraction

The unit should be positioned in a fume hood or extracted area. Additional extraction via a 2” duct

may also be required

1.5.3 Nitrogen Supply

The hood of the unit is fitted with a 4 mm push-fit gas pipe coupling. Nitrogen purge gas should be

fed into the hood at approx 1SLM.

1.6 Safety Precautions

1.6.1 Condensation within the Module

Condensation will damage the system electronics.

➔

Do not store, ship or use your module under conditions where temperature

fluctuations could cause condensation within the module.

➔

If your module was shipped in cold weather, leave it in its box and allow it to

warm slowly to room temperature to avoid condensation.

Agilent 1260 HT Sample Prep System Operation Manual

1.6.2 Preventative Maintenance

Periodically inspect the power lead for signs of wear or damage. Contact Agilent’s Service

Department to obtain a replacement lead –it must be fitted with a ferrite to maintain EMC

compatibility.

1.6.3 Temperature

The Sample Preparation System is designed to control the temperature of the sample preparation

vials to temperatures up to 260 °C and therefore the metal hot plates, vials and the base of the hand

pipettor will be extremely hot during normal operation. Please handle these components carefully

wearing suitable protective gloves. Heat sensitive warning labels are affixed to the hot sections of

the instrument for your protection.

Beware Hot Surfaces

1.6.4 Toxic and Flammable Vapours

To prevent the risk of accumulation of toxic and/or harmful vapours, the system must be used in a

fume cupboard or suitably extracted area when operated at elevated temperatures and with organic

solvents. Additional vapour removal can be achieved by connecting the hood of the hot plate to an

extraction system via standard 2”(50 mm) flexible ducting.

1.6.5 Risk Reduction Procedures for Flammable Liquids

THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT

Keep any sources of ignition (e.g. sparks or naked flames) well away from hot solvents!

Always wear a grounded anti-static wrist strap when manipulating flammable liquids.

Ensure the temperature of solvents is always kept at least 10 °C below their boiling point.

Always use extraction or ventilation to minimise the concentration of flammable vapours.

Remove solvent reservoir containers and cover all vials before shaking.

The hood of the unit should be purged with Nitrogen during shaking.

Reduce the exposed surface area of solvents to a minimum by replacing vial caps and container

lids as quickly as possible.

Replace the hood whenever possible.

Do not overfill containers –allow plenty of room for solvent motion during shaking.

Use the minimum necessary quantity of solvents.

Mop up any spillages immediately.
