1Introduction

Introduction to the System

The Agilent SD-1 is an innovative HPLC solvent delivery system engineered

with preparative chromatographers in mind. Corrosion-resistant titanium

pump heads address the needs of biochemists for compatibility with

salt-containing buffers and freedom from unwanted metal ions. Each pump

head has a piston washing chamber to prevent deposition of abrasive salt

residues behind the high-pressure seal, thereby greatly extending seal life.

Major new technology includes dual independent linear piston drives. Rather

than operating both heads from cams attached to a single motor, as in

conventional dual piston pumps, the Agilent SD-1 uses two independent

stepper motors which connect to pistons via linear screw drives. The motors

reciprocate, rather than running only in one direction. Independent drive

frees the Agilent SD-1 from the operating constraints of mechanical cam

profiles and makes it the first dual piston pump to produce entirely pulse-free

flow under all operating conditions, without auxiliary hydromechanical pulse

dampers. Totally pulse-free flow favors improved column performance and

extended column life by saving expensive preparative columns from the

constant pressure-pulse pounding typical of other large piston and diaphragm

pumps.

In addition, the Agilent SD-1 meters flow at a constant rate independent of

solvent compressibility and without the slight refill-associated flow deficits

seen with conventional single-motor dual-piston models. In gradient

operation, this produces more precise composition profiles without the time

and volume delays introduced by large mixing chambers. Plus, flow rates

extend well into the analytical HPLC range, permitting method development

on smaller columns without interchanging heads.

Each Agilent SD-1 pump includes a standard serial interface for flow control.

A built-in two-channel analog-to-digital converter allows the computer to

collect data from HPLC detectors. Contact closure inputs and outputs are

provided for system automation. Firmware includes Good Laboratory

Practices (GLP) logging features.
