Description
Agilent 1200 HPLC System with Refractive Index Detector RID
Integrated HPLC Platform for Isocratic Analysis and Universal Detection
The Agilent 1200 HPLC System with Refractive Index Detector (RID) is a reliable liquid chromatography platform designed for precise and consistent analysis of compounds that lack UV absorbance. This configuration is particularly well suited for applications requiring universal detection, including sugars, polymers, lipids, and other non-UV active compounds.
The system delivers stable and reproducible chromatographic performance through controlled solvent delivery, efficient degassing, and precise flow regulation. Its quaternary low-pressure gradient capability allows flexible solvent selection, while maintaining consistent flow conditions necessary for accurate and repeatable separations. Automated sample introduction supports high-throughput workflows and minimizes operator variability, enabling consistent injection precision and improved laboratory efficiency. Temperature-controlled conditions enhance retention time stability and baseline consistency, both of which are critical for refractive index detection. Detection is performed using a Refractive Index Detector (RID), which provides universal compound detection independent of UV absorbance. This makes the system especially valuable for analytes that are difficult to detect using traditional UV-based methods. Stable baseline performance and controlled environmental conditions ensure reliable quantitative results.This Agilent 1200 HPLC configuration provides a balanced combination of reliability, sensitivity for non-UV compounds, and operational efficiency.
