General safety
The system working environment should meet the specifications
indicated in this manual.
The system is intended to be used in a regulated laboratory
environment with trained operators following good laboratory
practices.
Use this system ONLY for its intended use. Use of the system for
any other purpose may cause unsafe situations.
Do not use the system if there is any visible damage.
The system working environment should meet the specifications
indicated in this manual.
System operation and maintenance
To keep up the specified performance of the system,
maintenance must be carried out as indicated in this manual.
Service contracts and preventive maintenance services are
available. Please contact your local dealer or the nearest sales
office for more information.
Electrical safety
The system must be connected to a suitable mains power supply
with a correctly installed protective earth conductor. Never use
the system without a properly connected protective earth
conductor.
Read the installation instructions before connecting the system to
the mains power supply.

Waste disposal
Dispose of waste (samples, solvents, device) in accordance with
a regulated waste disposal program. Follow a regulated,
approved waste disposal program and never dispose of solvents
through the municipal sewage system.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Use a personal grounding device or wrist strap. This device or
wrist strap must always be worn snugly to assure skin contact at
all times. It must be connected to a common point ground to drain
static charges present on the body.
Applications: quality control
It is recommended that you routinely run several quality control
samples.
Quality control samples should represent low, average and high
levels of a compound. Make sure that quality control sample
results are within an acceptable range, and evaluate precision
from day to day and run to run.
Data collected when quality control samples are out of range may
not be valid. Do not report this data until you are certain that
system performance is acceptable.
Apart from use of quality control samples, we recommend that
you use blanks. The blanks will help you assess whether carry-
over is within an acceptable range, and they will help you in
monitoring the integrity of your data.
It is also recommended that you use a proper internal standard.
If the system runs into an error state, the results for the processed
sample should not be trusted.
EMC caution statement
This device complies with the emission and immunity
requirements described in the IEC61326 standard.
Do not use this device in close proximity to sources of strong
electromagnetic radiation (e.g. unshielded intentional radiators),
as these can interfere with proper operation.
If this device is integrated into a system, the user is responsible
for electromagnetic compatibility of the overall system.
FCC emission notice
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in
a particular installation.

4. Maintenance
The pump is designed for many years of trouble-free operation. To keep the
pump in optimal condition, preventive maintenance is required after 12 months
of use, or after 120 liters have passed through the system, whichever comes
first. Preventive maintenance must be performed by an authorized service
engineer.
During a PM wetted parts are replaced and the drives will be lubricated.
l Parts inside the pump head are extremely sensitive to dirt
and dust particles.
l Before you start any work on the pump heads, place the
solvent bottles at a lower level than the pumps, to prevent
solvent from flowing from the open ends.
Available parts for the PM (see " Spares and Accessories" on page 36):
Tools:
l 0770.710 - Toolkit
l Isopropanol
In the service screen there is a wizard that will act as a guide through the seal
and piston replacement procedure.
18
0060.368-15 UHPLC Pump 770 Service Manual
Start the Pump head maintenance wizard in the service screen and follow the
instructions.
Each pump head is equipped with a pressure sensor. These sensors need to
be calibrated to create a well performing pump.
19
0060.368-15 UHPLC Pump 770 Service Manual
The pump has 4 check valves in total. Each pump has 1 inlet and 1 outlet valve.
Each check valve contains the same type of cartridge. For convenience the
cartridges are provided with an arrow. These should always point upwards.
Always tighten check valve housings with 8Nm torque:
