Available modules
The ÄKTA avant instrument is always delivered with the standard modules installed, but
one or more optional modules may be added to the flow path.
The following tables contains information on the standard modules and the optional
modules of the ÄKTA avant 25 and ÄKTA avant 150 instruments. The sections that follows
contain descriptions of the modules.
The valves for ÄKTA avant 25 and ÄKTA avant 150 are compatible with both
systems but for the best performance the specific valve type should be used.
The narrow channels in the valves for ÄKTA avant 25 will give too high back
pressure if used above 50 ml/min. The larger volumes in the “H” valves for
ÄKTA avant 150 may decrease resolution and increase peak broadening if
used in ÄKTA avant 25.
