LC Packings UltiMate UV Detector

The UltiMate UV Detector is a rapid-scanning spectrophotometer that can monitor up to four different wavelengths at a time. It can be fitted with a D2 or a Tungsten lamp and operated in the range from 190 to 740 nm. It can scan at the rate of 100 nm/sec and has an ordinate range of 0-4 AU. A variety of flow cells are available to meet the needs of the application ranging from 3 nL to 100 μL. When the unit is integrated into the UltiMate system, it is controlled by the CHROMELEON Chromatography Management software, but it can be controlled on a local level via the keypad as a stand-alone detector.

If desired, the UltiMate UV Detector could be used as a stand-alone detector for HPLC. While this chapter primarily describes the use of the detector as a component in the UltiMate Capillary HPLC system, it also includes information which should be useful if the detector is used with other devices. Nano flowcells are available as well.
