Temperature Control in the Charger Compartment

Vanquish Charger Operating Manual
This section gives information on any additional steps that are required
to prepare the Charger for operation and sample analysis.
• Set the target temperature and wait until the temperature has been
reached (see section 6.4.1, page
•
Load the sample racks or well plates (see
•
Verify that the Charger door is closed.
• Select a rack type in Chromeleon, if applicable (see
page 52).
•
Make sure that the chromatography system is properly equilibrated.
For more information, refer to the Vanquish System Operating
Manual.
Define the following parameters if you want to use temperature control
inside the Charger compartment to maintain the samples as required.
The same setting is used to control the Charger compartment
temperature and autosampler compartment temperature.
•
The target temperature (Temperature.Nominal) for the Charger
compartment. Setting a nominal temperature automatically turns on
temperature control (TempCtrl = On).
•
The maximum allowed deviation (ReadyTempDelta) between the
target temperature and the actual temperature of the Charger. If
the temperature deviates from the target temperature by more than
the maximum allowed deviation, the Charger is not ready to
operate.
You can deactivate this feature by setting the allowed deviation to 0.
Keep the door closed until the target temperature has been reached.
Note that in case of excessive ambient conditions (while cooling and at
set temperatures below ambient), condensation might appear
temporarily on the outside of the Charger door.
