Typical Specifications

Typical pressure range

Up to 600 bar, commonly found on units of this type for high-resolution separations.

Typical flow rate

Up to 10 mL/min at 200 bar, suitable for analytical to semi-preparative applications.

Injection volume

Typically ranges from 0.1 µL to 1800 µL, depending on the sampler configuration.

Column capacity

For this class of equipment, often supports up to four columns with automated switching capabilities.

Detector type

Commonly includes a Diode Array Detector (DAD) for broad UV-Vis detection.

Power supply

Typically operates on standard laboratory single-phase electrical supply (e.g., 230V, 50Hz in the UK).

Modularity

Units of this type are typically modular, allowing for customisation and upgrades of components like pumps, detectors, and autosamplers.
