1 Introduction
Product Description
Product Description
The Agilent 1290 Infinity II High Speed Pump can enhance your efficiency
through high speed and chromatographic performance.
A low-delay-volume mixer allows you to run fast gradients for narrow-bore
applications for high laboratory efficiency.
The new 1290 Infinity II LC power range has a high instrument efficiency,
allowing you to run any HPLC and UHPLC method.
The full ISET range enables you to transfer existing methods from different
instruments, including current Agilent systems as well as instruments from
other manufacturers.
Active damping, automatic purge valve, new ultralow dispersion kits or low
delay-volume capability, combine to achieve high instrument and analytical
efficiency.
