Introduction to the Detector
The detector is designed for highest optical performance, GLP compliance and
easy maintenance. It includes the following features:
• 80 Hz data acquisition rate for (ultra-) fast LC applications (requires
internal hard disk, G1315C and G1365C only),
• data recovery (DRC) feature provides data-never-lost insurance (requires
internal hard disk, G1315C and G1365C only),
• RFID tags for all flow cells and UV-lamps provides traceable information
about these assemblies,
• long-life deuterium with RFID tag and tungsten lamps for highest intensity
and lowest detection limit over a wavelength range of 190–950 nm,
• no loss in sensitivity for up to eight wavelengths simultaneous,
• programmable slit from 1–16 nm for complete optimization of sensitivity,
linearity and spectral resolution,
• optional flow-cell cartridges with RFID tag (standard 10 mm 13 µl,
semi-micro 6 mm 5 µl, micro 3 mm 2 µl, 80 nl, 500 nl, 10 mm, high pressure
10 mm 1.7 µl and prep-cells) are available and can be used depending on
the application needs,
• easy front access to lamps and flow cell for fast replacement, and
• built-in holmium oxide filter for fast wavelength accuracy verification,
• built-in temperature control for improved baseline stability,
• additional diagnostic signals for temperature and lamp voltage monitoring,
