Does anyone know where I can get the documentation for a Waters RCM 8x10 gauge? I've tried the Waters site and Google, and so far have come up with
nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Perhaps because it's not a gauge. The RCM is a Radian Compression Module, which comes in 8 mm x 10 cm, and 25mm x 10 cm. The 8x10 module is a holder
for prepacked columns specifically made for it. You fill it with water and crank a button to hydraulically compress the sides of the semi-rigid column
in order to eliminate packing voids. There is a simple indicator on the module to tell you when correct compression is accomplished.
The column segments can be strung together to a total of 30 cm (12 inches) by use of extensions and couplings.
See the Waters chromatography catalog (downloadable) for pics, parts lists etc. and info on solmn segments and packings available.
Not cheap!
