Fraction Collector

FRC-10A

A Fraction Collector for a Wide Variety of Fractionation Modes
The FRC-10A can be used over a wide range of flow rates, covering small and large-scale
preparative work. It flexibly adapts to various applications, such as simple, manual collection
performed while viewing chromatograms, and advanced, continuous and automated
preparative separation and collection performed in combination with an autosampler and
detector.

Convenient Fraction Simulation

Fraction simulation can be performed using LabSolutions, so the optimization of fractionation conditions is very simple.

Minimal Influence of Variations in Elution Time

Even if the elution time changes due to the influence of fluctuations in room temperature or the composition of the mobile phase, it is still
possible to accurately perform fractionation by catching the target component with special parameters. This function is indispensable for
continuous automatic preparative separation.

Options

Fraction collector heads, racks, and collection tubes and vials are available as options. Select according to fraction size required.

* A "fraction-collector head with valve" allows the eluate to be switched between the fraction side and the drain side using a 3-way solenoid valve. Use this model with standard fractionation in
order to fully attain the FRC-10A's functionality.
* A "fraction-collector head" (i.e. without a valve) continuously directs the eluate to the fraction side without using a solenoid valve. It is used for micro-volume fractionation.
