Installing 8000 Full Flow Filters
The 8000 has been supplied with 10-, 35-, and 70-micron Full Flow
Filters for use with the sampling cannulas. In theory, dissolution
continues until the samples are filtered. The 8000 allows filtering at the
instant a sample is taken with the use of the Full Flow Filters. Some
drug excipients may clog the Full Flow filters reducing their
performance. Filters may need to be changed during a run only in
extreme cases.
Power and Network Connections
• If your system configuration includes the peristaltic pump, the power
receptacle, and power switch are located on the rear of the unit.
Connect the power cord and turn on the peristaltic pump.
Install Full Flow Filters on the sampling cannulas to prevent
clogging of the sampling lines. Damage to your equipment will
result if the sampling lines clog. For best results, use the
10-micron Full Flow Filter.
Full Flow Filters are not for use with Apparatus 3 / 7
configurations.
The electrical connection at the back of the 8000 is the primary
disconnect for the instrument. The instrument should be
positioned to allow accessibility to the power cords for easy
disconnection.
Ensure the 8000 and any coupled components are configured for
the voltage supplied at the receptacle.
