CAPEL®-103R/103RT, and their upgraded automated versions CAPEL®-104/104T and CAPEL®-105 are high-performance capillary electrophoresis instruments, equipped with a photometric detector. The CAPEL®-103R/103RT analyzers have manually controlled samplers with 4 inlet and 2 outlet positions, and CAPEL®-104/104T/105 have autosamplers with 10 inlet and 10 outlet positions. The samples, rinsing and buffer solution are fed automatically according to a preset program. The autosampler in CAPEL®-104/104T/105 increases the number of analyzed samples to 7, and the customized software makes the analysis fully automated. All instruments are equipped with a reversible polarity voltage supply units and with a customized report outputs (hard copy and file). The CAPEL®-103RT/104T/105 have a liquid cooling system with temperature control for capillary cooling.
Design and operation features
Detectors
CAPEL®-103R / -103RT, -104/ -104T with one wavelength UV-detector have a working wavelength of 254 nm. CAPEL®-105 is equipped with variable wavelength UV-detector, with a wavelength range from 190 to 380 nm.
Vials
Standard 1.5 mL vials are used, with a minimal sample volume 100 µL.
Injection modes
Injection modes employ controlled pressure profile injection with variable peak pressure, with programmable peak pressure ranging from 0 to 30 mbar. The injection time can be programmed, too.
