Can I use non-preslit vial septa with ACQUITY Flow Through Needle (FTN) sample managers? - WKB48320
Article number: 48320
ENVIRONMENT
- ACQUITY APC Sample Manager - FTN
- ACQUITY Arc Sample Manager FTN-R
- ACQUITY UPLC Sample Manager - Flow Through Needle PLUS (SM-FTN PLUS)
ANSWER
The use of non-split septa on ACQUITY FTN sample managers is not recommended because it will cause needle damage, septa coring, and injector blockages.
The use of non-split septa on ACQUITY FL sample managers is permitted because a puncture pin is fitted to the needle assembly.
We recommend the use of pre-slit septa for all sample managers if there are various injector types in the lab.
