Electrochemical detector testing

[Lyser]

Hi,

I have a problem with my IC-3000 Dionex system and I want to test my EC detector.

How can I do this?

Check with Dionex. They should be able to provide you with an appropriate "PQ" (Performance Qualification" procedure.

Lyser,

Tom's advice above is your best bet but could you comment on what you want aspect you would like to test? There are many possible aspects to characterize including: response factor of the detector, electrical continuity, reference electrode performance, chromatographic dispersion, grounding.

That's right!

I want to test particularly the gold electrode performance, I'm practically sure that reference electrode is good because pH is ok.

I will see with dionex for standard procedure to do that...
