Eluent Cap Air Filter (Shut-off Valve)

If the HPLC pump works and
extracts the eluent from the bottle, it causes a vacuum in a closed system. To
avoid this, you need to use pressure compensation.
For this reason we suggest
using our Vision Eluent Safety Shut-off Valve (VLV-SF1), which is a one-way
valve - on the inlet side, it contains a 0.22µm PTFE membrane, on the outlet
side is a silicone duckbill valve. In normal usage, the membrane can accumulate
dirt, and the duckbill valve can wear out, so it is mandatory to change the Air
Filter every six months.
The best visible indicator that it is time to change
the filter is the Timestrip sticker. After the Air Filter installation, just
start the Timestrip sticker by slightly pushing the button until a straight red
line is visible on the screen. After 6 months the screen will become red, then
you will know to change it.
