The Adept CE4100 dual piston pump delivers flow rates from 0.001 to 10mL/min with a maximum operating pressure of 40MPa. The pump head is constructed with ceramic inserts to provide bio- compatibility.

The CE4201 UV-Visible detector operates over the wavelength range 190nm-700nm with automatic fast second order filter insertion at 370nm. With noise typically 0.35 x 10-5A peak to peak at 230nm and drift, at temperature equilibrium, typically 3 x 10-5A/hour, the new Adept UV visible detectors offer the highest performance available.


A column-mounting panel is supplied, which carries the Rheodyne injection valve, allows close coupling of the column to the flowcell for minimum dead volume. The standard flowcell 8L x 10mm pathlength is provided. Chromatograms may be plotted on a pen recorder or an integrator. The system may be upgraded to provide data processing. The system is supplied complete with solvent and pipe organiser CE4033 and installation kit 4150 01 00.

The CE4901 PowerStream software operating in Windows XP may also be used with Windows 98 and 2000, offers the same data processing power as the CE4900 software but unlike the latter, offers no system control. The system is supplied complete with column oven and valve mounting panel, Rheodyne injection valve with 10L loop, solvent and pipe organiser CE4033, 8L x 10mm cell and installation kit 4150 01 00

As an alternative the CE 4900 PowerStream system with full system control, could be used allowing for expansion of the system at a future date.
