The Ion Chromatography Theory & Operation training courses are designed to develop fundamental and operational skills of new users of IC systems.  This course is strongly recommended for IC users with a minimum of 2 months of hands-on experience who would like to further expand their knowledge on the principles of ion chromatography, how to successfully operate their IC system, and properly maintain its consumables.

Course Pre-requisites: Completion of Chromeleon Software courses (Levels 1 & 2) or equivalent

Class size is limited to 10 attendees.

Specific System/Hardware focused Courses Include:

• Principles of Ion Chromatography
• Eluent Preparation for Ion Chromatography – Tips & Tricks
• RFIC Eluent Generation Technology (Care & Operation)
• Detectors & Suppressors (Care & Operation)
  • Conductivity Detection
  • Amperometry Detection
• Columns (Care & Operation)
• AS Injection Modes (Simultaneous & Sequential)
• ICS-5000 Capillary Systems – Special Considerations
• Theory of Troubleshooting
• Laboratory (hands-on) exercises
  • IC System Installation, Setup & Equilibration
  • Making “Low-Noise & Voids-Free” Plumbing Connections
  • 1-pt Calibration Curve
  • Method Calibration / Data Processing
  • System Shutdown (Short- & Long-term)

Because we will be using Dionex Chromeleon Software for system control and data manipulation, Chromeleon Level 1 and Chromeleon Level 2 courses are required for all of the Basic IC operation and troubleshooting courses.

Basic IC Operation and Troubleshooting

Who Should Attend:

New users of Dionex instrumentation with one to two months of hands on experience.
