Five standard configurations to fit your LC workflow Isocratic Configurations Gradient Configurations Isocratic Pump Isocratic Pump Gradient Pump Gradient Pump Gradient Pump Manual Injector Autosampler Manual Injector Manual Injector Autosampler Column Oven Column Oven Column Oven Agilent s LC detectors are fully compatible with the 1120 Compact LC. Additional external detection choices include: Refractive Index (RID) Fluorescence (FLD) Evaporative Light Scattering (ELSD) Solvent delivery The optimized design of the pumping module used in the Agilent 1120 LC ensures stable, virtually pulse-free solvent flow up to 10 ml/min. Servo-controlled, dual floating pistons enable variable stroke volume optimized for the selected flow rate, and keeps maintenance to a minimum. Choose from different configurations, including either an isocratic pump or a gradient pump with up to two solvents and integrated two-channel degasser. Degasser The gradient pump includes an integrated dual-channel degasser with continuous vacuum using Teflon AF technology, which provides low internal volumes of 1.5 ml per channel. The degasser eliminates baseline fluctuations and shortens equilibration times. Pump options Automated solvent selection valve for gradient pump combines two-out-of-four solvents for gradient formation or for column flushing with different solvents. Continuous seal wash kit to prevent corrosion for applications running buffer solutions with high salt concentrations greater than 0.1 M. Gradient pump and integrated degasser 4
Manual injector An easy to use, easy to maintain solution for low throughput sampling, the manual injector includes a long-life Rheodyne 2-position, 6-port sample injection valve and standard 20 µl loop. Front access to the valve facilitates easy sample injection and straightforward exchange of sample loops. Autosampler The integrated autosampler is designed for reliability, safety, and easy maintenance, and facilitates reliable injections from 0.1 to 100 µl. The unit delivers high precision as well as excellent linearity over a wide volume range. The autosampler s flow-through design ensures that there is no loss of sample; the entire sample drawn from the vial is injected. The standard configuration offers a sample capacity of 100 2-mL vials; alternatively, two half-trays each with 40 2-mL vials or 15 6-mL vials can be used. Column oven The 1120 Compact LC's available column oven houses a single column, and provides accurate, stable column temperature from 10 degrees above ambient to 60 C, for applications where retention time reproducibility and separation quality improve above ambient temperatures. Variable wavelength detector Featuring simplified optics for high sensitivity, low baseline drift and wide linear range, Agilent s variable wavelength detector not only lowers your detection limits; it lowers your cost of ownership with easy front access for fast lamp and flow cell replacement.
