4.4.2 Capillary Connections in an UltiMate 3000 System
Note the following:
• Different fitting systems are used in an UltiMate 3000 system. Therefore, install the
capillaries and fittings only at the positions for which they are intended.
• Viper and nanoViper fitting connections
Loosen or tighten the Viper connection only using the black knurled screw and only with
your hand (do not use tools). The knurled screw can be easily removed and reattached to
the capillary at any time. If you observe leakage on the connection, tighten the screw a
little further. If leakage continues, remove the capillary, clean the capillary ends carefully
by using a cloth or tissue wetted with isopropanol, and reinstall the capillary. If the
connection continues to leak, replace the Viper capillary.
When connecting the Viper capillary to the detector inlet, observe the guidelines in the
Installation Instructions shipped with the capillary.
Capillaries with Viper fitting connections can be reused also for a different connection.
• Conventional fitting connections (non-Viper)
Do not over-tighten these fitting connections. If you observe leakage on the connection,
tighten a little further.
If leakage still exists, first consider cleaning the connection port with a cleaning swab
(part no. 6040.0006). Replace the capillary and/or fitting if this does not eliminate the
problem.
Reuse used fittings and ferrules only for the same capillary connection. This is to avoid
increased dead volume or damage to the system and leakage.
