New HPLC Column Chiller/Heater Model

This new unit from Torrey Pines Scientific has a temperature range from 4°C to 100°C readable and settable to 0.1°C. The PID temperature control software regulates temperatures to ±0.2°C, even at ambient. The Peltier-based CO50 has 5-programme memories with 10 steps per programme and the ability to repeat any programme from 1 to 99 times automatically. This unit is ideal for chiral and biomedical chromatography where below ambient temperatures help preserve bioactivity. It can be used for stabilising column temperatures from day to day at or near room temperatures for repeatable results. Temperature accuracy and stability are excellent, and there is a stable temperature indicator lamp on the front panel of the unit that lights when the target temperature is stable.

The unit can hold columns up to 30cm long by ¼” or 3/8” diameter in mounting clips provided. Larger diameter columns can be used by removing the column clips that hold the smaller columns. The CO50 features RS232 I/O port for controlling the unit by a chromatograph, for programming gradients, and for data collection. Also included are an injection counter, 30-day timer with user settable Auto-Off, and a chamber drain for spills.

The unit comes with a bench top universal power supply for use anywhere in the world, 3-wire AC line cord for the country of use, twelve month warranty and instruction manual. The Model CO50 is UL, CSA, and CE compliant.
