Introduction

Features

The G4204A Quaternary Pump is designed for highest performance, GLP

compliance and easy maintenance. It includes the following features:

•Seal wash function for continued high lifetime of pump seals for buffer

applications.

•Optional Jet Weaver for optimum mixing performance with a minimum of

delay volume.

•Automatic purge function for ease of use and unattended preparation of the

system.

•Auto tuning of the delivery cycle for compensation of elasticity and solvent

volume change effects (compressibility, thermal expansion).

•Solvent Calibration Tables for optimum flow accuracy.

•Fast defill function for improved intake and delivery performance.

•Two pistons in series design for increased reliability.

•High resolution piston movement control for smooth and reliable motion.

For specifications, see “Performance Specifications” on page 26.
