The Smallest-Scale Octave
The system can run up to eight columns connected in series separated by multiport valves that control up to four inlet streams and four outlet streams. The proprietary pneumatic valves are independently controlled to maximize flexibility for programming separation methods via user-friendly SembaPro™ software. Columns can be placed in a convenient 8-position stand included with the system, or, in the case of small 1-5 ml columns, attached directly to the face of the valve blocks. Up to 8 pumps can be accommodated for performing a variety of continuous chromatography protocols. One or two Octave 4XE UV-VIS Detectors (optional system accessories) can be controlled by the included SembaView™ software for monitoring output streams.
- Typical separations range from 1 to 30 g/day
- Flow rates up to 12 ml/min
- Ideal for running small columns (typically 1-10 ml)
