1260 Infinity Binary LC System
The 1260 Infinity Binary LC system costs no more than a typical HPLC system, but yields faster results with significantly higher data quality. Delivering a pressure of 600 bars, this system boasts flat baselines and impressive sensitivity for diode array detector analyses thanks to the superior gradient accuracy from high pressure mixing. Based on the highly successful 1200 Series Rapid Resolution LC System, we promise full backwards compatibility for your established HPLC and RRLC methods. The binary system supports a wide range of LC and LC/MS applications with any narrow and standard bore analytical column.
-
Faster separations, higher resolution - the maximum 600 bar pressure system allows you to use smaller particle size columns.
-
Ultra-sensitivity through the revolutionary Agilent Max-Light cartridge flow cell with 60 mm optical path length (typical noise: < ± 0.6 µAU/cm).
-
Expand your UV-detection capabilities with the 30x wider linear UV-range offered by the new HDR-DAD solution - making it ideal for analysis of mixtures with widely different concentration levels.
-
Baseline robustness and fast spectral acquisition at data rates up to 80 Hz through the new optical design of the 1260 Infinity Diode array Detector. Expand your UV-detection capabilities with the 30x wider linear UV-range offered by the new
-
HDR-DAD solution - making it ideal for analysis of mixtures with widely different concentration levels
-
Universal applicability - the configurable pump delay volume goes down to 120 μl, while the flow range can reach 5 ml/min at 600 bar so you can use columns ranging from narrow bore (2.1 mm ID) to standard bore (4.6 mm ID), matching the needs for both LC and LC/MS.
-
Large and small injection volumes - the next generation flow-through design of the 1260 Infinity Autosampler achieves highest precision for a wide range of injection volumes without changing sample loops.
-
High throughput and reliability, low carryover - the new 1290 Infinity LC Injector HTC/HTS is designed specifically to meet the throughput and reliability demands of critical LC/MS applications, offering lowest carryover with dynamic load and wash (DLW) principle.
-
Flexibility and ultra-high throughput capabilities - new pull-out valve drive design and user-exchangeable QuickChange valve heads in the 1290 Infinity Thermostatted Column Compartment boosts usability and paves the way for ultra high-throughput, multi-method and automated method development solutions.
-
Easy method transfer - choose from a broad range of more than 140 Rapid Resolution High Definition (1.8 µm) LC columns for easy, fast and secure method transfer from HPLC to UHPLC through identical column chemistries.
-
Intuitive, powerful software - new Lab Advisor software has diagnostic and monitoring capabilities and alert functions that warn you of problems so you can manage your lab and achieve the best chromatographic quality.
