Multiple Wavelength Detector

The Rapid Separation Multiple Wavelength Detector (MWD-3000RS) is one of the most powerful detection options of the Ultimate® 3000 Rapid Separation LC System, and can simultaneously collect data from up to 8 channels at a rate of up to 100 Hz. The narrowest peak can be detected reliably—10 peaks in 10 seconds— no problem!

Achieve a new level of flexibility for routine operation or in method development with up to eight channels of single-wavelength data acquisition. The MWD-3000RS features noise and drift performance previously only available in forward-optic detectors, 1024 element diode array, and 1 nm resolution.

  • Data collection rates of up to 100 Hz allow detection and characterization of even the sharpest peaks
  • Low typical noise (<± 7 µAU) and drift (<0.5 mAU/h) guarantee high sensitivity
  • Front access to pre-aligned cells and lamps simplifies routine maintenance and therefore minimizes instrument downtime. Both the lamps and the flow cell feature an ID chip for tracking of all relevant parameters.
  • The flow cell range covers micro and analytical flow rate applications. Cells are also available in a biocompatible design.

The Multiple Wavelength Detector is also available in a standard version with up to 20 Hz data collection rate (MWD-3000). All other specifications are as for the rapid separation version. This detector perfectly supports conventional HPLC applications.
