1 Introduction Introduction to the Thermostat Introduction to the Thermostat The Agilent 1290 Infinity Thermostat is designed for use with other modules of the Agilent 1200 Infinity Series or with other LC systems if adequate remote control inputs and outputs are available. The thermostat is controlled from the Agilent 1200 Infinity Series Instant Pilot or from your Agilent control software for LC systems. The specially-designed thermostattable sample trays holds either 100 × 1.8 mL vials or two wellplates and 10 × 1.8 mL vials. The thermostat contains Peltier-controlled heat exchangers. A...

Thermostat Operation Thermostat Operation Heat exchanger Special sample tray autosampler sampling unit Heating/cooling module Peltier elements Figure 2 Thermostat Principle The thermostat is equipped with a cooling/heating module which uses Peltier elements for efficient air cooling. When turned on the front side of the Peltier elements is heated/cooled according to the temperature setting. A fan draws air from the sample tray area and blows it through the channels of the heating/cooling module. The fan speed is determined according to the environmental conditions (e.g., ambient...

Introduction Thermostat Operation 1 heating/cooling module the air reaches the temperature of the Peltier elements and this thermostatted air is blown underneath the special sample tray where it is evenly distributed and streams back into the sample tray area. From there it is again drawn into the thermostat. This “recycle” mode assures a very efficient cooling/heating of the sample vials. In cooling mode the opposite side of the Peltier element will become very hot and to maintain the performance of the elements they have to be cooled down. This is done with large heat exchangers in the...

2 Site Requirements and Specifications Site Requirements Site Requirements A suitable site environment is important to ensure optimum performance of the instrument. Power Consideration The autosamplers comprises two modules, the autosampler module (G1329A/B, G1367A-E, G1377A, G2260A, G4226A, G5667A, G4303A) or fraction collector (G1364A-C, G1364D, G5664A) and the thermostat module (G1330B). Both modules have a separate power supply and a power plug for the line connections. The two modules are connected by a control cable and both are turned on by the autosampler or fraction collector. The...

2 Site Requirements and Specifications Site Requirements Power Cords Different power cords are offered as options with the module. The female end of all power cords is identical. It plugs into the power-input socket at the rear. The male end of each power cord is different and designed to match the wall socket of a particular country or region. WA R N I N G Absence of ground connection or use of unspecified power cord The absence of ground connection or the use of unspecified power cord can lead to electric shock or short circuit. ➔ Never operate your instrumentation from a power outlet...

2 Site Requirements and Specifications Site Requirements Bench Space The module dimensions and weight (see Table 1 on page 15) allow you to place the module on almost any desk or laboratory bench. It needs an additional 25 cm (10 inches) of space on either side and approximately 8 cm (3.1 inches) in the rear for air circulation and electric connections. If the bench shall carry a complete HPLC system, make sure that the bench is designed to bear the weight of all modules. The module should be operated in a horizontal position. Environment Your modules will work at ambient temperatures and...
