Abstract
An automatic analyzer includes a liquid feed unit including a liquid feed unit and a liquid feed flow passage and feeding a mobile phase, a sample introduction unit introducing a sample to the mobile phase, a separation column separating the sample into plural components, a detector detecting the component, and a control unit. A pressure sensor detecting pressure of the liquid feed flow passage is provided, and the control unit calculates a pressure rise rate of the time immediately after starting liquid feeding of the mobile phase based on the pressure detected by the pressure sensor and a compression pressure variation amount and a pressure average after continuing liquid feeding of the mobile phase for a certain time, and determines completion of equilibration of the separation column.
