Waters Acquity UPLC with Photodiode Array (PDA) Detector

Waters Acquity UPLC with Photodiode Array (PDA) Detector

Compound identification with spectral confidence

• Work at higher efficiencies with a much wider range of linear velocities, flow rates, and backpressures
• Higher flow rates and increased throughput result in superior resolution and sensitivity
• Eliminate significant time and cost per sample, while improving quality of results
• Benefit from Waters’ patented sub-2-μm hybrid particle chemistry

For routine analyses, the Waters ACQUITY (PDA) Detector is reliable, easy-to-use, and has enhanced software control to provide flexibility for simultaneous 2D and 3D operation. The Photodiode Array Detector offers advanced optical detection, providing trace impurity detection and quantitation with spectral analysis capabilities. It is the ideal detector for any laboratory application, from compound identification to method development. 

PDA Features

• High optical and digital resolution, low signal-to-noise ratios, and library matching provides quantitation of trace impurities with low signal-to-noise ratios
• Flexible parameter control for the detection of analytes in any UPLC separation
• Simultaneous 2D and 3D operation in either Empower or MassLynx Software
• Wavelengths of 190 to 500 nm and up to 2.0 AU without compromising linearity 
• Low-volume, light-guided flowcell improves light transmission efficiency, allowing quantitation up to 2.0 AU without compromising linearity
