What a Quaternary Pump HPLC System Can Do: One Instrument, From Routine QC to Impurity Analysis and Dissolution Testing
Share
Method development staff run into the same practical problem constantly: different tests require very different mobile-phase ratios, and re-preparing mobile phases every time a method changes is inefficient. That's exactly the problem quaternary pump design is built to solve.
Quaternary Pump vs. a Standard Dual Pump
A standard dual-pump system typically handles a mixing ratio between only two mobile phases. A quaternary pump can deliver four mobile phases simultaneously, with the four channels combinable in any proportion — covering a much wider range of method-development scenarios without needing to re-blend a premixed mobile phase for every new method.
The EasySep-5010 HPLC System's quaternary pump design comes standard with a built-in four-channel online degasser that automatically degasses in-line to avoid bubbles from mixed mobile phases; it also has an in-line automatic plunger-cleaning function, with configurable cleaning programs for automated in-line cleaning that reduces manual intervention.
