Innovative product is said to have 256 times the detection power and up to 50 times the dynamic range of any other RI detector in existence
Wyatt Technology announces the availability of what it says is a revolutionary refractive index (RI) detector - the Optilab rEX. This innovative product has 256 times the detection power and up to 50 times the dynamic range of any other RI detector in existence, says Wyatt.
The Optilab rEX is a new generation of instrument that offers a multitude of unique features.
With a combination of cutting-edge semiconductor photodiode technology and proprietary computer algorithms, the Optilab rEX presents a host of instrument firsts.
These include the ability to view the full range of instrument detection at all times.
In addition, the Optilab rEX can also measure the DN/DC of a solvent at the same wavelength of light as a light scattering instrument, enabling absolute molecular weight determinations.
The Optilab rEX can also measure the absolute refractive index of a solution - a unique option not possible with any other on-line RI detectors, according to Wyatt.
This new instrument shares the ability of its predecessor (the Optilab DSP) to reach below ambient temperatures as easily as above ambient ones.
The no-hassle temperature control can be programmed to as low as 4C or as high as 50C and is said to be compatible with all HPLC systems.
