Eurospher C18 now in 3um particle size
Knauer says its 'well-known and reliable' Eurospher C18 stationary phase is now available in a 3um particle size for higher efficiency, faster analysis times and better resolution
As recently as in March of this year it won a first prize in the chemical analysis category at Eurolab 2005 in Warsaw, Poland.
This detector with the modest name is no ordinary UV detector, says Knauer It is based on fast diode array technology with practically no moving parts, making it extremely reliable and rugged by design.
It features a wavelength range from 190 to 500nm and can measure at up to four channels simultaneously.
Its high wavelength scanning speed allows for ten spectral scans per second.
The wavelength accuracy is better than 1nm and with a noise level below 1 E-05AU, it is clearly among the best diode array detectors on the market, says the company.
The wavelength accuracy is verified automatically via an internal holmium oxide filter.
All functions of the detector can be controlled manually from the front panel or by software via the RS-232 interface.
Signal output is accomplished by either using RS-232 or by 4x +/-1V analogue connection, the latter enabling the detector to be used in any other third-party HPLC system.
With the level and event outputs, it is even possible to set up software-independent solvent recycling by just adding a three-port solenoid valve.
GLP report features such as total working hours and number of lamp ignitions are also included.
