Agilent Optical unit for HPLC RI detectors, G1362-60002 (Tested)

The G1362‑60002 optical unit is a micro optical module designed for use with Agilent 1260 Infinity III Refractive Index Detectors (micro RID). It includes the optical path, flow cell, heat exchanger, purge/recycle valves, and integrated diagnostics—delivering high-sensitivity detection of non-UV-absorbing compounds like carbohydrates, lipids, and polymers.

Key Features

• Micro volume flow cell: 2.5 µL sample volume and ~265 µL total internal volume for low-dispersion, high-speed applications 
• LED illumination: Long-life light source (~40,000 h) with automatic intensity control to maintain stable detection 
• Integrated heat exchanger & temperature control: Regulates optical module from ambient +5 °C up to 55 °C for baseline stability 
• Built-in diagnostics & calibration: Enables real-time troubleshooting, automatic refractive-index calibration, and zeroing 
• Front-access plumbing: Provides easy maintenance access to valves and capillaries
