Complements UPLC and Rapid Resolution Systems
The New SofTA Model 1400 (formally the Model 1200) maintains the peak widths obtained with rapid
resolution and ultra performance LC systems. This is our fastest ELSD yet, with
the narrowest peaks of any ELS Detector, peak widths < 1sec. The sensitivity
will be better than the Model 400.
Unique, Full Feature Display
The touch screen displays all the detector settings and conditions. Simply touch the screen to modify setting, view the
chromatogram in real time, annotate a method, and much more.
The
Model 1400 fits into the Agilent LC System Stacks
The SofTA Model 1400 ELSD incorporates SofTA exclusive technology in a
format that fits in your Agilent LC system. This ELSD can also integrate seamlessly into
any
existing systems. The Model 1400 is designed to fit in the existing Agilent 1100
and 1200 LC systems. It is placed at the bottom of the stack to reduce the
tubing length between the autosampler, or UV, and the ELSD. Now Agilent
1100 and 1200 systems can benefit from the superior
performance obtained with Thermo-Split™ technology. See
our technical page
Exclusive Thermo-Split™ Technology
for more details on this
exciting new concept in Evaporative Light Scattering Detection.

SofTA Features Increase
Productivity, Enhance Performance and Reduce Cost of Operation
The Model 1400 is
extremely fast to set-up. Inject samples with in 30 minutes of power up by
selecting the primary method. This set of conditions is appropriate for 90% of
all HPLC applications. The Model 1400 can also be optimized for superior
detection of semi-volatile analytes and very low concentrations. Less volatile
mobile phases and high flowrates are accommodated by selecting a sub-ambient
Thermo-Split temperature.
Unlike halogen light sources, the laser does not need replacement and the
intensity is maintained with internal feedback and displayed and recorded for
reproducible results.
The fully warranted Teflon nebulizer provides superior solvent and chemical
resistance, eliminates sample build-up even at high temperatures, does not
permit sample carry over or increased noise from surface leaching. Reproducible
droplet distributions are assured by thermally isolating the nebulizer from the
spray chamber and drift tube, improving reproducibility between methods.
Low gas pressure and flow requirements allows use of cylinder, house systems, or
gas generators. The pneumatic system is protected by a high pressure shut off,
and provides a signal in the event of unstable or low pressure.
