1.2 Unpacking
All electrical and mechanical components of the detector are carefully tested before the
instrument is shipped. After unpacking, please check the detector for any signs of mechanical
damage, which might have occurred during shipment.
Please note: Immediately report any shipping damage to both the incoming carrier and
Dionex. The shipping insurance will compensate for the damage only if
reported immediately.
Please note: Keep the original packing material, as it is the optimum packaging for
shipping the unit (e.g., for repair). Shipping the unit in any other packaging
automatically voids the product warranty.
• Place the shipping container on the floor and remove the accessories pack.
• Grasp the detector by the sides. Slowly and carefully, pull it out of the shipping container and
place it on a stable surface.
• Remove the foam inserts, and then remove the polythene packaging.
• Check off the contents of the accessory pack against the list in the Standard Accessories
section, page 49.
1.3 Warranty
The standard warranty coverage for the unit is in accordance with the terms of sale. Warranty
is given for one year, starting from the invoice date, and covers materials and labor, ex-works.
Please note that worn-out parts are not covered by the warranty.
The warranty period for the deuterium lamp is six months, starting from the delivery date (see
label at lamp cable). Removing the label automatically invalidates the warranty. The warranty
period for lamps with timer (without the above label) is 1000 operating hours.
The warranty coverage shall become invalid in any case identified as resulting from
inappropriate use, service, or the implementation of non-specified spare parts. Similarly, the
warranty coverage shall be invalidated in the event of inappropriate shipment, packaging, or
failure to remove aggressive or damaging solvent residues.

2 Overview
2.1 Principle of Operation
The UVD170U and 340U detectors feature:
• Highest sensitivity
• Powerful optics
• Extremely low-noise electronics
• Simultaneous detection at four wavelengths
• Recording of three-dimensional data
5
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
Important: The chemical resistance of the flow cell depends on the solvents used for
the analysis. This applies particularly to solvents that can form active
radicals or peroxides.
Please note: All UVD 170/340-U detectors are shipped with a standard analytical flow
cell (part no. 5065.1810).
The standard analytical flow cell (→ Fig. 21, page 42) is the choice for applications using 3
and 4 mm I.D. columns. The cell consists of a PEEK cell body and a heat exchanger equipped
with a stainless steel capillary with an inner diameter of 0.25mm I.D. The inlet capillary is
factory-fitted with a single-part, hand-tight fitting. The flow outlet capillary is made of PEEK
and has an inner diameter of 0.50 mm. The cell volume is 10 µL and the cell path length is
9 mm. The maximum pressure limit of the standard analytical flow cell is 10 MPa (1450 psi).
For other fields of application, the following flow cells are available as an option:
• Biocompatible flow cell (Part no. 5065.1820)
The biocompatible flow cell is recommended for applications using stainless steel
incompatible eluents or analytes. It has almost the same design as the standard analytical flow
cell. However, the stainless steel capillary is substituted by a PEEK capillary with an inner
diameter of 0.25 mm. The cell volume is 10 µL and the cell path length is 9 mm. The
maximum pressure limit for the biocompatible flow cell is 10 MPa (1450 psi).
• Semi-Preparative flow cell (Part no. 5065.1800P)
This flow cell is recommended for semi-preparative applications using columns with an inner
diameter, for example, of 25 mm. Often, highly concentrated samples and/or large injection
volumes are used, resulting in high signal levels with standard cell path length, e.g., 9 mm.
The path length of the semi-preparative flow cell is 2 mm. It has almost the same design as
the standard analytical flow cell. However, the cell body is made of PCTFE. The inlet and
outlet capillaries, with an inner diameter of 0.7 mm, are made of stainless steel. The cell
volume is 6 µL and the maximum pressure limit for this flow cell is 10 MPa (1450 psi).
For applications with 2 mm I.D. columns, we recommend using the micro flow cell:
• Micro flow cell (Part no. 5065.1810M)
The micro flow cell has almost the same design as the standard analytical flow cell. The cell
volume is 2.5 µL and the cell path length is 9 mm. The maximum pressure limit for the micro
flow cell is 10 MPa (1450 psi).
For applications with 1 mm I.D. columns, we recommend using the fused silica nano flow cell
or the micro flow cell:
• Fused silica nano flow cell (Part no. 5065.1810N)
Use the fused silica flow cell for applications for which peak separation and thus, the peak
width is critical. The cell volume is 395 nL and the path length is 8 mm. The maximum
pressure limit for the fused silica flow cell is 40 MPa (5800 psi).
Please keep in mind that fused silica might be incompatible with special eluents, e.g.,
pH ≥ 12. In these cases, use the micro flow cell (see above).
For information about how to clean the flow cells, refer to section 7.3.3 (→ page 43).

3 Installation
3.1 Positioning and Environment
Bring the detector to a moderate temperature for four hours to allow any condensation that
might have occurred during shipping to evaporate. Do not connect the instrument to the mains
yet. After four hours, check the instrument; if condensation is still there, allow the instrument
to continue to warm up (without connecting it to the mains) until the condensation is
completely gone.
Place the instrument on a firm and level surface that is free of vibration. Avoid large
temperature variations in order to minimize the baseline drift. Avoid draughts and direct
sunlight. Allow sufficient clearance behind the detector for power connections and
ventilation. Capillary connections between the column and the flow cell should be as short as
possible, to avoid peak broadening effects due to excessive dead volume.

UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
Dionex instruments are factory-set for operation at the local voltage requirements of the
destination country.
If the setting is not appropriate for your local requirements, reset the voltage at the selector on
the instrument's rear panel (next to the main supply connector) as explained below:
Warning: Before resetting the voltage, turn off the detector. Be sure to disconnect the
power cord from its source.
• Use small pliers or tweezers to pull the small voltage selector board out of the power socket
housing (→ Fig. 5).
• Place the board (with the writing face up) on a firm surface.
• Turn the board so that you see the correct voltage selection, as shown in → Fig. 6.

UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
USB
The detector is connected to the server PC via the USB port (1), i.e., either directly to the USB
port of the PC, or via another instrument of the Summit HPLC product line that is already
connected to the server PC, or via a USB hub.
The other three USB ports (2) allow the detector to be connected to either one instrument of the
Summit HPLC line or one USB hub each. Additional Summit HPLC instruments can then be
connected to the hub.
Important: We recommend using these USB ports (2) for connecting Dionex
instruments only. Dionex cannot guarantee correct functioning if
instruments of other manufacturers are connected.
The two digital inputs can be used to inform Chromeleon about external events. The relay
outputs allow potential-free switching of external signals.
11
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
LAN
The LAN port allows connection of the detector to an instrument LAN.
Digital I/O
The two 6-pin ports (Mini-DIN) on the detector rear panel can be used under Chromeleon, as
necessary, for communication with external instruments, e.g., to synchronize the Inject Signal of
an external autosampler or injection valve with the start of the analysis start by the data system.
Please note: If the detector is connected to Chromeleon via LAN, it is not advisable to
use the digital inputs for remote inject synchronization. This is because the
timing of LAN communication varies, depending on the current LAN
traffic.
Range
Digital Input ↔ Digital GND 0 or +5V
Digital Out (GND) ↔ Digital Output Switching voltage: 100V; switching current: 0.5A
Limiting value of mean on-state current: 1.0A
Switching capacity: 10W/10VA
Volume resistance: max. 0.15 Ohm
A 6-pin signal cable (Mini-DIN) (part no. 8911.0001) is available for connection. The Analog
High, Analog Low, and Shield pins on the connection cable are not supported.

UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
Important: The maximum pressure stability of the flow cell depends on the model.
The maximum pressure limit for the standard flow cell is 10 MPa
(1450 psi). For information about the pressure stability of the other flow
cell that are provided for the UVD-U detectors, refer to Technical
Specifications (→ page 47).
Please note: Make sure that capillary connections between the column and the flow cell
are as short as possible. This will avoid peak broadening effects due to
excessive dead volume.

4 Operation
The detector is intended for operation with the Chromeleon Chromatography Management
System. Stand-alone operation is not possible. Data transfer is performed digitally, via USB
or LAN (→ Rear Panel Connections, page 11 and USB Installation, page 17 and/or LAN
Installation, page 18).
4.1 Power-Up
The detector is turned on via the power switch on the rear panel of the instrument.
Please note: The deuterium lamp does not switch on automatically when the power to
the detector is turned on. Lamp on/off control is via Chromeleon. For
optimum results, turn on the lamp at least 30 minutes before beginning an
analysis.
Please note: After selecting the Lamp off command, wait at least 5 minutes before
turning on the deuterium lamp again. Otherwise, the lamp becomes too hot
and may be damaged (message "Lamp too hot...").

UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
To control the detector by Chromeleon, one of the following Chromeleon licenses is required:
For questions regarding the individual options, please contact your Dionex sales
representative.
We generally recommend connecting the detector to the Chromeleon server PC via USB
(Universal Serial Bus). Almost all PCs provide at least one USB port. However, if this is not
possible, use a network connection (LAN) for communication between the detector and the
Chromeleon server. For example, Windows NT 4.0 does not support USB. If you are using a
LAN connection, please observe the recommendations for network operation (→ page 26).
For information about how to install the detector via USB and LAN, refer to USB Installation
(see below) and LAN Installation (→ page 18).
Please note: Install the Chromeleon software (→ page 27) before connecting the
detector to the USB port of the Chromeleon server PC.
Connect the detector to the mains using the power cord shipped with the instrument. Please
observe the information about the facility requirements and the electrical connection (→ page 8).
Use the USB cable from the standard accessories kit (page 49) to connect the detector to the
USB port on the Chromeleon server PC.
17
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
Please note: The USB connection to the PC or the USB hub must not exceed 5m.
Longer connections are possible via a special USB extension cable
(Dionex part no. 8911.0004). Up to five extension cables may be
connected in series. For system reasons, the overall connection length must
not exceed 30m.
For Chromeleon versions 6.11, 6.20 and 6.30, the USB installation of the detector is via the
Master Setup from the current Service Pack CD (part no. 4580.0316). Insert the CD into the CD
drive of your Chromeleon server PC. Double-click Setup.exe in the root directory. Click Next to
have the Master Setup check which Chromeleon version is installed on your PC. Follow the on-
screen instructions as they appear to install the driver. If a version is found for which no driver is
available, the setup aborts.
Starting with Chromeleon 6.40, the USB installation of the detector is handled automatically
during the Chromeleon setup. The user is not required to take any other steps.
Please note: Use the LAN connection under Windows NT 4.0 only. For any other
operating systems, a USB connection is recommended.
Connect the detector to the mains using the power cord shipped with the instrument. Please
observe the information about the facility requirements and the electrical connection (→ page 8).
Use the LAN cable from the standard accessories kit (page 49) to connect the detector to the
LAN port on the Chromeleon server PC.
To ensure reliable communication between the detector and the Chromeleon server with a
LAN connection, we recommend using a LAN connection that is independent of the office
LAN, i.e., an instrument LAN, between the detector and the Chromeleon server PC. This type
of connection requires that you install a separate 10 Mbit network interface card in the
Chromeleon server PC and assign unique IP addresses to all connected devices. For
information about how to install the separate network interface card in the Chromeleon server
PC, see page 19.
If your PC already contains a separate network interface card for operating Summit HPLC
devices, the detector can be connected to this card. For information about how to connect the
detector using an instrument LAN under Windows NT4, see below.
18
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
If you wish to connect no other instrument but a single detector, you can connect the server PC
and the detector via a so-called crossover cable; a special network cable with crossed-over data
lines. These lines are usually marked by colors (red, yellow) to distinguish the cable from
standard network cables.
If you wish to connect several TCP/IP-enabled Summit HPLC devices to the server PC, you
must use a hub (10 Mbit) to establish the connection to the instrument LAN. In this case, use
standard network cables instead of the crossover cable (One standard network cable, part no.
8906.2038, is provided in the accessories kit.)
Install the card according to the manufacturer's instructions, via Start → Settings → Control
Panel → Network → Adapters → Add.
19
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
Configure the network adapter for the instrument LAN (here: [2] 3Com Fast EtherLink XL
NIC (3C905B-TX)) on the Bindings tab page. First, select all protocols in the Show
Bindings for field to verify that the TCP/IP protocol is installed. Install the TCP/IP protocol,
if necessary:
20
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
Then, select all adapters in the Show Bindings for field and disable all protocols for the
adapter for the instrument LAN except the TCP/IP protocol:
An IP address and a subnet mask are required for the separate network adapter because the
TCP/IP protocol is used for the instrument LAN. The dialog box for entering the IP address
and the subnet mask opens automatically during the installation.
Please note: You may as well open this dialog box later again to change the IP address
and the subnet mask if necessary. Select the properties of the TCP/IP
protocol via Start → Settings → Control Panel → Network →
Protocols. Then, select the TCP/IP protocol and open the Properties of
Microsoft TCP/IP dialog box, using the Properties command on the
context menu.
21
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
In the Adapter field, select the network adapter for the instrument LAN and enable the
Specify an IP address option.
Important: Do not change the settings for the office LAN network interface card!
Important: For the adapter for the instrument LAN, disable all other network
protocols and services (see above).
First, identify which IP range is already used. To do so, open a DOS command box via
Start → Programs → Command Prompt and enter: Ipconfig /all. Differentiate between the
two following cases:
Case A: Already used IP address ≠ 192.168.60.xxx
Case B: Already used IP address = 192.168.60.xxx
Note: The subnet mask determines which part of the IP address describes the network
and which part defines the individual devices connected to the network.
Independent LANs have different network addresses. Based on the subnet mask
255.255.255.0 in the above example, the term "192.168.60" describes the
network, while "xxx" defines the individual modules connected to the network.
22
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
Case A:
Select the address from the range given below and enter the subnet mask specified below:
Do not enter a gateway address; no gateway is available for the instrument LAN and the
above addresses cannot be routed. Communication between the detector and the Chromeleon
server is always direct
Case B:
If the range 192.168.60.xxx is already used, use a different network range for the instrument
LAN, e.g., use 192.168.61.
Important: In this case, make sure that the addresses assigned to the individual
Summit HPLC modules also start with 192.168.61.
For information about the appropriate value for your individual configuration, contact your
system administrator.
Do not enter a gateway address; no gateway is available for the instrument LAN and the
above addresses cannot be routed. Communication between the detector and the Chromeleon
server is always direct.
23
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
Important: Every device on the same network must have a unique IP address.
Selecting duplicate IP addresses may cause conflicts on the network.
To check the selected settings, enter the following commands at the DOS level:
ipconfig /all
What it does: Lists the configuration of all network adapters. The newly installed 10Mbit
network adapter has been configured successfully it this command also returns its IP address
and subnet mask.
route print
What it does: Checks whether you can address the detector with the network adapter used for
the instrument LAN. The new network adapter is correctly configured if the indicated
network (here, for example, 192.168.60.0) is given under Target and its subnet mask is given
under Net mask.
ping 192.168.60.51
What it does: Checks the connection to the detector with the IP address 192.168.60.51. If the
installation is correct, the detector will reply to the ping command.
To operate the detector on a network, an IP address and a subnet mask must be assigned. The
program used to assign these IP properties is the CM IP Utility.
It is only possible to assign IP properties when data are not being transferred between the
detector and the Chromeleon server. To stop the Chromeleon server, select Start → Programs
→ Chromeleon → Server Monitor. In addition, the PC on which the CM IP Utility is running
must be connected to the same subnet as the detector you wish to program.
• If necessary, copy the CmIPUtil program from the software CD to a separate directory on
your computer.
• Double-click Setup.exe to start installation. Follow the installation instructions as they appear
on the screen.
• Open the program via Start → Programs → Chromeleon → IP Utility → CmIPUtil.
24
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
The Module Information window of the IP Address Assignment dialog box lists all
modules that are active on the network, together with their IP address, serial number (S/N),
server name (the name or IP address of that server is given with which data are currently
exchanged), gateway address, subnet mask, and Ethernet address. The IP address for
modules that have not yet been configured is 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255 (→ figure above).
• Enter the IP address and the subnet mask for the modules to be configured. The values depend
on the settings for the adapter for the instrument LAN (→ page 23).
• Select the module to be configured by its serial number.
• In the Available IP Addresses window, select the IP address to be assigned to the detector. If
it is not listed, click Add/Remove to enter the desired address.
• Enter the required subnet mask. Select the same subnet mask as used for the Chromeleon
server PC.
When selecting the IP address of the network adapter of the server PC, be sure that only the
last digit differs from the IP address of the detector. Otherwise, it may not be possible to
address the connected Summit HPLC devices.
25
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
To configure several TCP/IP-enabled Summit HPLC devices, make sure that every device has
its own IP address. In this example, the following entries would be possible:
Important: Every device on the same network must have a unique IP address.
Selecting duplicate IP addresses may cause conflicts on the network.
• The Gateway Address field must not be empty, although no gateway is available for the
instrument LAN. Therefore, enter the IP address of the device to be configured in this field to
prevent a gateway from being used.
• When you finish entering IP properties, assign them to the module by clicking Assign. After
about 1 second, the instrument's new parameters will be displayed in the Module Information
window
• Click the Query button to check the settings.
• Click Exit to close the program.
Important: Verify that a unique IP address has been assigned to all Summit HPLC
devices that are connected to the Chromeleon server PC.
Unlike USB connections, Ethernet LAN connections have limited real-time capabilities. Data
transmission can occur only when no other connected user is using the network. In order to
take full advantage of the real-time capabilities of the detector, select the instrument LAN
connection (→ page 19). This ensures that other network users do not delay the server
communication.
If the detector is connected to the data system via a LAN, it is not advisable to use the digital
inputs of the detector for remote inject synchronization. This is because the timing of LAN
communication varies, depending on the current LAN traffic.
If the detector is connected to the data system via USB, all remote inputs are polled after 0.1
seconds and they can be used without restrictions.
Please note: Dionex cannot guarantee reliable communication when operating the
detector on an office LAN because the load of the office LAN will be a
decisive factor. Overload of the office LAN may result in timeouts and
loss of data, and thus disturb automatic operation of the data system. We
therefore advise against operating the detector on an office LAN.

UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
• During calibration, the baseline must be sufficiently stable. This may not be the case, e.g., if
the solvent composition has been modified or if there are bubbles in the solvent.
• The solvent in the cell must not be fully absorbing in the wavelength range to be calibrated.
This will be the case, e.g., if the cell is filled with 96% hexane/4 % ethyl acetate.
• Before calibration, make sure that the deuterium lamp is already warm because its spectrum
changes a lot during the first minutes after turning on the lamp.
If these conditions are not met, the process will be interrupted with the corresponding error
message. When the problem is solved, repeat the calibration using the Disconnect command
followed by the Connect command.
Calibrating the detector is via a holmium oxide filter that is installed in the beam path of the
deuterium lamp. The maxima are determined from the resulting transmission spectrum and
compared to the holmium oxide values stated in the literature. If a difference is detected for this
maximum between the measured value and the known value, interpolation is performed between
this maximum and the two adjacent maxima to correct the wavelength allocation of the affected
photodiodes. Wavelength calibration can take up to 2 minutes. During this time, data acquisition
is not possible.
If an error is found, an error message is displayed and the error is logged in the Chromeleon audit
trail.

7 Maintenance
7.1 General Information
The detectors are made of high-quality components and materials, which keep maintenance
requirements to a minimum. In general, the unit should be kept clean. The painted surfaces
are relatively resistant to weak acids and alkaline or organic solutions. Nevertheless,
immediately wipe up all liquids spilled onto the detector's painted surface, using a lint-free
cloth or paper.
The following sections describe all maintenance procedures that can be carried out by the user.
Only qualified Dionex personnel should perform any additional servicing.
Important: Always use the original packaging when shipping the detector. Shipping
the instrument in anything other than the original packaging will void the
product warranty! (→ Warranty, page 2).
All parts serviceable by the user (e.g., the lamp and flow cell) are accessible via the removable
cover on the detector's left-side panel. To open, press in and turn the knurled screw 90°
counterclockwise. You may now open and remove the panel. The lamp and flow cell are clearly
visible (→ Fig. 20).
Warning: During operation, the lamp becomes extremely hot and remains so for
some time after the unit is turned off. To avoid possible injury, allow
sufficient time for the lamp to cool before performing any maintenance.

Warning: During operation, the lamp becomes extremely hot and remains so for
some time after the unit is turned off. To avoid possible injury, allow
sufficient time for the lamp to cool before performing any maintenance.
• Insert the new lamp (part no. 5053.1204), aligning the notch on its base with the alignment
pin of the lamp housing and replace the retaining screws. No additional alignment is required.
Please note: A new lamp must "run in" for at least 24 hours before the first analysis.
During this period, strong baseline fluctuations and increased noise may
occur.

43
UVD170U/340U Operating Instructions
• Clean the lenses, using a soft, lint-free cloth or tissue and an optical cleaning solution or
isopropanol.
• Replace scratched or damaged lenses.
Important: Do not attempt to remove the flow cell body (8) from the housing (10)!
• To clean the flow cell body and housing, rinse the parts with water, isopropanol, or methanol,
or place the entire assembly in an ultrasonic bath.
Important: Never attempt to remove dirt from the flow cell body using a spatula,
tweezers, or other object, as this may cause irreparable damage.
• Reinstall the lenses onto either side of the flow cell body so that the plane faces are on the
inside.
• Reinstall the lens retaining plates (6 and 9), taking care to tighten the screws (5) evenly and
without excessive force.
Important: If you have loosened the fitting screws (4 and/or 15) on the flow cell body,
take care not the re-tighten the screws too tight to prevent damage to the
flow cell body.
• Check the flow cell for leakage before you install them into the unit. Tighten the screws (5) if
necessary.
