1260 Infinity II Multimethod Solution
This configuration allows to increase your labs' efficiency by combining
hardware for column-selection with solvent selection. Multiple LC
applications using different mobile phases, different gradients, but also
different stationary phases can be performed on just one LC instrument.
Typically, several users share one instrument, nevertheless use their
individual LC methods dedicated to their specific samples. This configuration
is chosen to optimize instrument use.
• By using a high-pressure 4-column selector valve (G4237A, 600 bar) inside
the 1260 Infinity II Multicolumn Thermostat, up to 4 columns (30 cm length
with InfinityLab fittings or shorter) can be accessed without any
re-plumbing. Individual InfinityLab Quick-Connect heat exchangers
support pre-column solvent heating for each column. A bio-inert version of
the 4-column selector valve is also available. Fingertight InfinityLab fittings
allow a fast exchange of columns when needed.
• A solvent selection valve attached to the LC stack allows additional access
of up to 12 different solvents.
• Utilization and productivity of the LC are optimized by switching between
several applications run on a single instrument.
