Agilent 1100 series Fraction Collector, preparative scale, G1364B (Refurbished)

The Agilent 1100 Series Preparative Fraction Collector (G1364B) is designed for high-flow, preparative-scale HPLC fraction collection. It supports multiple trigger modes, a wide range of collection vessels, and flexible tray configurations, making it ideal for compound purification, method development, and recovery workflows.

The system integrates seamlessly with Agilent 1100 LC modules and supported detectors, offering reliable fraction switching, low delay volumes, and robust safety features for demanding laboratory environments.

Key Features

• Preparative-scale fraction collection up to high flow rates
• Multiple trigger modes: time, peak-based, timetable, and manual
• Support for a wide variety of collection vessels (vials, tubes, well plates)
• Automatic tray detection and identification
• Low internal delay volumes for accurate fraction timing
• Fast 3/2 diverter valve switching (<100 ms)
• Optional cooling of collected fractions
• GLP-compliant features including error logging and maintenance feedback
• Parallel operation of up to three fraction collectors
