Its 7.0 m resin particles and robust column hardware ensure efficient performance in environmental, food, water, and beverage laboratories.
Durable Construction and Wide CompatibilityFeaturing a stainless steel housing and a proprietary ion-exchange resin, this column is compatible with automated or manual Metrohm ion chromatograph systems. The column supports a variety of laboratory workflows, allowing for flexible use and straightforward operation.
FAQ's of Metrohm Metrosep C Supp 1 - 250/4.0:
Q: How is the Metrosep C Supp 1 - 250/4.0 column installed in an ion chromatograph?
A: The column is installed by connecting its fittings to the corresponding Metrohm Ion Chromatograph system ports using standard installation protocols. Refer to your instrument's manual for detailed instructions on correct orientation and tightening, ensuring optimal performance and preventing leaks.
Q: What cations can be separated using this chromatography column?
A: The Metrosep C Supp 1 - 250/4.0 is intended for the separation and quantification of various cations, including sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and ammonium, commonly found in environmental, food, water, and beverage samples.
Q: When should the column be replaced?
A: Replacement is recommended after approximately 1000 injections or as indicated by deteriorating peak shapes, increased backpressure, or reduced resolution, whichever comes first. Follow the manufacturer's guidelines for maximum column longevity.
Q: Where can this column be used?
A: It is suitable for use in laboratories conducting environmental, water, food, and beverage analysis where cation determination by ion chromatography is required. It is widely used by researchers, quality control analysts, and environmental testing agencies.
Q: What is the typical process for using the column in analysis?
A: After proper installation and equilibration, samples are injected into the chromatograph, where the column separates cations based on their affinity to the ion-exchange resin. The resulting chromatograms allow quantification and identification of cations present in the sample.
Q: How does the column benefit laboratory workflows?
A: The robust design and broad pH stability allow for consistent and reliable separations over a wide range of conditions, reducing downtime and maintenance. The column's compatibility with Metrohm systems simplifies integration into existing workflows, increasing productivity and analytical confidence.
