How to connect the nanoZero® to the nanoViper™ fitting



This video demonstrates how to connect the nanoZero to the Thermo Scientific nanoViper™ fitting:
  1. Hold the nanoZero with the spanner.
  2. Tighten the nanoViper™ fitting finger tight until you reach a firm stop.
  3. A firm stop is the point at which the nanoViper™ stops turning and significant additional force would be required to turn the fitting further.
Due to the unique design of the nanoZero, there is no bore between the fittings. The end of the nanoViper™ interfaces directly with a polymer inside the nanoZero, creating a true-zero dead volume union.

Pro Tips:
  1. Operating the column with an under-tight fitting can result in a loss of performance that cannot be recovered with additional tightening.
  2. Additionally, we recommend only tighten the fitting finger tight, and not to use a torque tool.
