I/O box

Location of the I/O box

The illustration below shows the I/O-box and its recommended location and connection points.

Function of the I/O-box

The I/O-box E9 is used to interface other equipment in order to measure parameters such as refractive index, light scattering and fluorescence. See Requirements on connected equipment, on page 196 for information on requirements of the equipment that can be connected to ÄKTA pure. The I/O-box can control external equipment by a digital output signal, as well as detecting the state of them by digital inputs. It is possible to install up to two I/O-box E9 when using ÄKTA pure. If two I/O-boxes are to be used, the second one has to be configured as I/O-box E9, 2nd. The configuration is defined by the I/O-box E9 Node ID.

Part Description
1 I/O-box
2 D-sub connectors

External air sensors

Up to four external air sensors can be added to ÄKTA pure, and there are two different versions to choose from. They differ in internal diameter and optimal position on the instrument.

The air sensors can be attached to the instrument using the rails and holders. No dummy modules need to be removed.
In addition to be used for preventing air from entering the system, the external air sensors can be used together with System pump A to load the entire sample volume.


Air sensor L9-1.5
L9-1.5 has a 1.5 mm inner diameter and is designed for i.d. 1.6 mm FEP tubing at the low pressure side before pumps. It is installed in the flow path before the system pumps and is used to prevent air entering the valve.


Air sensor L9-1.2
L9-1.2 has a 1.2 mm inner diameter and is designed for o.d. 1/16" tubing at the high pressure side after the pumps. It is installed after the injection valve and is used to prevent air entering the column.

Connection between Tubing Connector
L9-1.5 and inlet valves FEP, o.d. 1/8", 1.6 mm Tubing connector, 5/16" + Ferrule (yellow), 1/8"

Note: When the air sensor is installed before System pump A, use tubing with a minimum length of 18 cm between the valve located before System pump A and the external air sensor when loading the sample at maximum flow rate, to be sure that air does not reach System pump A. Shorter tubing can be used at lower flow rates.

Mixer

The illustration below shows the location, together with a detailed view of Mixer M9.

Part Description
1 Outlet
2 Mixer chamber
3 Inlet

Select Mixer chamber
To obtain a homogeneous buffer composition, it is important to use a Mixer chamber suitable for the flow rate of the method. The tables below show what Mixer chambers to use in ÄKTA pure at different flow rates.
If the liquids are difficult to mix, use a larger Mixer chamber to achieve optimal mixing. However, note that a larger Mixer chamber distorts and delays the gradient.
Three different Mixer chambers are available for ÄKTA pure 25. Their volumes are: 0.6 ml, 1.4 ml (mounted at delivery), and 5 ml.

Mixer chamber volume [ml] Flow rate [ml/min],
Binary gradient
0.6 0.1-5
1.4 0.5-10
5 5-25

CAUTION
Risk of explosion
. Do not use Mixer chamber 15 ml with an ÄKTA pure 25 configuration.
The maximum pressure for Mixer chamber 15 ml is 5 MPa.

Four different Mixer chambers are available for ÄKTA pure 150. Their volumes are: 0.6 ml, 1.4 ml
(mounted at delivery), 5 ml (included in delivery), and 15 ml.

Mixer chamber volume [ml] Flow rate [ml/min],
Binary gradient
0.6 0.5-5
1.4 0.5-15
5 2-50
15 15-150

Note : At low flow rates (below 0.2 ml/min) a gradient of sufficient quality may be achieved with the mixer bypassed.
Note: For the highest flow rates, use the 5 ml mixer for ÄKTA pure 25 and the 15 ml mixer for ÄKTA pure 150. The larger chamber volume minimizes potential pump disturbances.
Note: The 1.4 ml mixer might work up to 25 ml/min provided that the buffers are easily mixed.

Note : O-ring 13.1 x 1.6 mm 28-9535-45 is for use with Mixer chamber 0.6, 1.4 and 5 ml.

Note : O-ring 22.1 x 1.6 mm 28-9818-57 is for use with Mixer chamber 15 ml.

Note : O-ring 13.1 x 1.6 mm 29-0113-26 (high resistant) can be used as an alternative to 29-9535-45.

Location and illustration of UV monitor U9-M and UV monitor U9-L

The illustration below shows the location of UV monitor U9-M, together with a detailed view of the monitor unit and detector. The monitor unit is labelled U9-M and the detector U9-D.

Note: When UV monitor U9-M is used, the entire Multi-module panel shown in the illustration is replaced by U9-M.

The illustration below also shows the recommended location of UV monitor U9-L, together with a detailed view of the monitor and detector. The UV monitor U9-L requires that the Multi-module panel is installed.

Part Description
1 Inlet
2 UV flow cell. Three different path lengths are available: 0.5 mm, 2 mm (default) and 10 mm
3 UV detector
4 Outlet
5 Inlet
6 UV monitor U9-L
7 UV flow cell. Two different path lengths are available: 2 mm (default) and 5 mm
8 Outlet
9 UV detector

Function of UV monitor U9-L

The UV monitor U9-L measures the UV absorbance at the fixed wavelength of 280 nm. It is not possible to vary the wavelength, or turn on or off the U9-L monitor. This is therefore not shown in the Phase Properties pane in Method Editor.

For information on how to install UV monitor U9-L, please refer to Section 4.10 Install UV monitor U9-L, in the system handbook.

Using two UV monitors
The UV monitor U9-L module can be used in two configurations, UV monitor U9-L and UV monitor U9-L, 2nd. The configuration is defined by the module's Node ID.
It is possible to use two UV monitors in ÄKTA pure, in the following combinations:
• UV monitor U9-M together with UV monitor U9-L, 2nd

• UV monitor U9-L together with UV monitor U9-L, 2nd

UV monitor U9-L, 2nd can be located anywhere in the flow path and is therefore shown in the Process Picture as a component without a fixed place. This means that it is possible to place U9-L, 2nd before the other UV monitor in the flow path.
Note: If U9-L, 2nd is placed on the high pressure side of the column, pressure limits have to be considered.

Valves for ÄKTA pure

The modular design allows the user to customize ÄKTA pure in multiple ways. The system is always delivered with the core modules of the selected configuration, but one or more optional modules may be added to the flow path.
The table below contains information on the core modules and the optional modules of ÄKTA pure 25 and ÄKTA pure 150.

The valves for ÄKTA pure 25 and ÄKTA pure 150 are compatible with both systems but for the best performance the specific valve type should be used.

Note: All valve kits include the necessary tubing.

Note: Many different sizes/types of tubing can be connected to a chromatography system. Tubing with a smaller inner diameter (i.d.) holds less delay volume and will therefore generate less dilution of the protein peak. Narrow tubing, however, increases the system pressure, especially when running at high flow rates. The tubing used should match the application needs. See Recommended tubing kits, on page 467 in the System Handbook for more information.

Examples of pump pressure curves

The table below shows some examples of pump system pressure curves obtained when errors have occurred. The examples can be useful in troubleshooting of the System pumps. The System pressure monitor R9 has higher resolution than the other pressure monitors, and is therefore recommended for troubleshooting purposes.

Incident: 30 μl of air enters pump.
Action: Purge pump. See Section 5.4 Prime inlets and purge pump heads, on page 217 in the system handbook.

Incident: A large volume of air enters pump.
Action: Purge pump. See Section 5.4 Prime inlets and purge pump heads, on page 217.

Incident: Blocked outlet check valve
Action: Clean the check valve, See Section 7.6.7 Clean the pump head check valves, on page 343 in the system handbook.

Incident: Inlet check valve is loose.
Action: Tighten the check valve. See Section 7.8.8 Replace the pump head check valves, on page 378 in the system handbook.

Incident: Leaking inlet check valve.
Action: Replace the check valve. See Section 7.8.8 Replace the pump head check valves, on page 378 in the system handbook.

Incident: Leaking outlet check valve.
