Summit x2 Dual-Gradient HPLC System
The Summit x2 Dual-Gradient HPLC System (in short: Summit x2 HPLC System) provides the maximum flexibility for standard HPLC and LC/MS methods and for advanced chromatographic techniques requiring two gradient pumps. The system is suitable for both standard HPLC applications and advanced chromatographic techniques, such as Tandem Operation, online sample preparation, and 2D chromatography.
Running the Summit x2 HPLC System in tandem operation mode allows increasing the productivity, typically by 50-100%, without the need to modify existing chromatographic methods.
In addition, the Summit x2 system supports online sample preparation, e.g., for analyte enrichment or sample matrix elimination, and 2D chromatography for optimizing the chromatographic separation.
The Summit x2 HPLC System comprises the following modules:
Two P680 HPLC gradient pumps (e.g., a P680 DGP dual-gradient pump with two ternary gradient pumps in one enclosure or two separate P680 gradient pumps with identical flow rate.)
SOR-100 solvent rack with integrated degasser for degassing all channels of the pumps
ASI-100 autosampler (that supports overlapping injections)
TCC-100 thermostatted column compartment with column switching valve
A detector of the Summit HPLC System series, including the MSQ Mass Spectrometer
