UHPLC chromatography system Focus LC®

HPLCPDAUV

With the smallest footprint in HPLC technology, the Focus LC delivers the reliable and repeatable results that your teams need, wherever they work—from the field to the lab to the hood.The flexibility that the Axcend Focus LC brings to your workflow means you can integrate it seamlessly into your processes for industry-leading accuracy and reliability. So, bring the lab to the sample—and use far less of the sample for real-time results than legacy big box systems require.Robust and Capable: Get the accurate analysis you need with more real-time results from every drop of your sample.Compact Design: At only 18 pounds, the Focus LC is lightweight enough to bring the lab to the sample wherever your teams work.Low Cost of Ownership: Use 500-100 times less solvent than the legacy big box system for less waste, lower energy costs, and less maintenance.Easily bring the lab to the sample or use the Focus LC in a state-of-the-art laboratory thanks to the smallest footprint in the industry. With lower solvent consumption, reduced waste, and less energy use, you'll benefit from both reliability and efficiency wherever your teams work.Compact, Lightweight and Powerful: At 18 pounds and operating up to 10,000 psi, the Focus LC provides improved sensitivity and reduced on-column sample dilution.Take the Lab to the Sample™: Deliver real-time results in the lab, in the field, or anywhere else that legacy big box systems can't reach.Integration Is Easy and Painless: The Focus LC makes integration simpler, including low volume interfacing kits for connections to MS and photodiode array (PDA) UV detection.The Column Choice is Yours: Operate the Focus LC using any standard capillary HPLC or UHPLC column, allowing you to compare results to your existing LC.Lowest Cost of Ownership: Benefit from solvent and waste costs that are about 1/1000th of analytical-scale systems, with the Focus LC paying for itself in as little as two years.The Most Eco-Friendly HPLC: Use under 10 mL per week of solvents with a fraction of the energy consumption required by legacy big box LCs.Accessories and Options:Columns: Compatible with a variety of phases and configurations for flexible separations. Supports a wide range of HPLC columns including single or dual configurations with multiple stationary phases. Easily connect third-party columns.Cartridges: Choose from Fixed Column Cartridges for routine assays or Heated Column Cartridges for temperature-sensitive methods. Both offer low sample volumes, reduced solvent use, and single or dual UV detection at 235, 255, or 275 nm.Sample Introduction: Flexible sample introduction for manual, automated, and in-line workflows. Use manual injection, integrate with AutoFocus for unattended automated workflows, or pair with InFocus to enable in-line process analytical technology (PAT).Software Compatibility: Works with your preferred CDS, including Agilent OpenLab, Waters Empower, and DataApex Clarity, plus Axcend Drive—an intuitive, browser-based interface.Industry Applications: The flexibility and reliability of the Focus LC allow you to use the system to tackle nearly any analytical chemistry challenge, including pharmaceutical suspension testing, adapting pharmaceutical monographs for capillary HPLC, impurity analysis in mini-tablets, and reducing PFAS in oligonucleotide analysis.Real World Success Stories: Praised for robust miniaturized HPLC system, ease-of-use, low price point, and suitability for both experienced and inexperienced users.Key Features / Technical Specifications:Smallest footprint in HPLC technologyWeight: 18 poundsOperating pressure: up to 10,000 psiSolvent consumption: under 10 mL per weekCompatible with standard capillary HPLC/UHPLC columnsLow volume interfacing kits for MS and PDA UV detectionSingle or dual UV detection at 235, 255, or 275 nmIntegration with leading CDS and browser-based interfaceEco-friendly: reduced solvent and energy useFlexible sample introduction: manual, automated, in-line
