Priming modes
Topic LCI-USG-0058, Last Updated 11/08/2024

The sample manager has three priming modes available.

  • Needle Wash Solvent – where the wash solvent flows through the needle wash pump
  • Sample Metering Pump – uses the solvent manager to prime the sample metering pump (the sample metering pump is downstream of the solvent manager pumps)
  • Seal Wash Solvent – prime occurs in the sample manager area of the IFM rather than the pump area
