Liquid Chromatography Flowmeter

Real time monitoring of chromatography system flow rate.

Traditionally the quality of analytical data from HPLC systems has been determined by periodic checks of a set of measured parameters. This unfortunately just gives you a snapshot of how your HPLC system is performing at a point in time and cannot assure the total quality of an application.

Our Liquid Chromatography Flowmeter (LCF) is an intelligent real-time monitoring device for continuously measuring the performance of pumps serving HPLC and uHPLC systems opening the door to the world of total quality assurance.

By monitoring the liquid flow being delivered to your HPLC system in real-time, the TESTA Analytical LCF generates a constant stream of data which is easily correlated to a particular chromatogram, thus achieving true total quality assurance of your application. Compatible with all HPLC solvents, the compact LCF powers itself from a USB connection. This non-invasive device will operate over a wide dynamic range.

µFlowmeter

Precise measurement of liquid flow to ensure reliable, quantitative LC/MS

The AB-40004 microflowmeter (µFlowmeter) from TESTA Analytical is an affordable non-invasive device optimised to provide continuous high precision measurement of low volume liquid flows that may be split off for analysis from chromatography systems. Fully compatible with all organic and aqueous chromatography solvents, the AB-40004 µFlowmeter is the perfect tool for precise measurement of liquid flow to ensure reliable, quantitative HPLC/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) measurements.

Refractive Index Detector Kits

$Refractive Index Detector Kits$

...for HPLC techniques

A high-performance Differential Refractive Index (DRI) detector is widely acknowledged as one of the most flexible detectors for liquid chromatography use. A DRI is a detector that measures the refractive index of an analyte relative to the solvent. They are often used as detectors for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gel permeation /size exclusion chromatography (GPC/SEC). DRI’s are considered to be universal detectors because they can detect anything with a refractive index different from the solvent.

Based on decades of experience in the field, TESTA Analytical Solutions designed a DRI Detector adaptable to fulfil the specific demands of different OEM clients. The key to this versatile detector is based upon modularity of the DRI kit from which it is designed.

Solvent Line Monitor

...for liquid chromatography techniques.

Running out of solvent when running an HPLC or any other liquid chromatography system is a problem most separation scientists will have encountered. Your chromatograph running out of solvent can lead to loss of data, need to re-prime the pump / system downtime and often necessitates system re-validation to make sure the obtained results are within expected limits. The Solvent Line Monitor is designed to eliminate this problem, without any user input or need for regular resetting. The Solvent Line Monitor runs independently and is fully compatible with almost any liquid chromatograph.

Another commonly experienced problem in liquid chromatography systems can arise from unexpected air or gas bubbles. The presence of bubbles or microbubbles can result in changes in retention times, pulsating baselines, unexpected changes in peak areas, irregular peak shapes, pump outages and excessively high back pressures. Connected to a liquid chromatograph pump feed line, the Solvent Line Monitor will non-invasively check the status of liquid flows for air / gas bubbles and stop operation if any are detected thereby increasing the performance reproducibility and reliability of any liquid chromatography or flow chemistry system.
