|---|---|
| When I buy a column, what do I need to order? | With the exception of the Vantage A columns, all other column types come as a complete assembly. The Moduline Pilot columns include fittings and tube assemblies to connect to the column. Moduline production and engineered columns are supplied with triclamp type fittings only. Tubing and additional fittings can be supplied as optional items. The Vantage S columns include fractional triclamp fittings, tubing is not supplied. When purchasing the Vantage A column, the column stand and the APC-1 (the air pack controller), are purchased separately. The Vantage A column comes with fractional triclamp fittings; tubing is not supplied. For each column there are recommended lists of spare parts. Suggested spares to have on hand for Vantage columns are the DFC Kit (disposable flow cell). |
| What is the pore size of the bed supports for your different style chromatography columns? Are other pore sizes available? | For Moduline columns the standard porosity for the bed supports are 30 micron polyethylene sinter or 10 micron SST mesh. For customer engineered columns stainless steel mesh (Poristar) is available in 20 micron or 10 micron size as well as 30 micron polyethylene sinter. Vantage bed supports are 15 micron polypropylene, other porosities are not available. |
| What is the material of construction of the bed supports? Are other materials available? | For Moduline columns the standard bed supports material are 30 micron polyethylene sinter or 10 micron SST mesh, (Poristar) . For customer engineered columns 30 micron polyethylene sinter as well as 10 or 20 micron stainless steel mesh are available. Vantage bed supports are 15 micron polypropylene. |
