1220 Infinity LC System II
The Agilent 1220 Infinity II LC System is an affordable, high quality UHPLC system for routine standard analyses that maximizes uptime, minimizes maintenance and provides the highest return on your investment.
As a member of the 1200 Infinity II Series it gives you the proven quality and performance you expect from the industry leader, in your choice of four easy to own, integrated, "all-in-one" configurations.
The new 1220 Infinity II LC with integrated diode-array detector can also be used for mobile applications.
-
Winner of the Scientists’ Choice Award as Best New Separations Product of 2010.
