Overview
The Agilent 1200 Series HPLC System is a high-performance, modular liquid chromatography platform engineered for precision, reproducibility, and operational robustness in regulated and research laboratory environments. Built upon Agilent’s proven Quaternary Pump architecture and integrated with the G1315D Diode Array Detector (DAD), this system delivers reliable UV-Vis spectral acquisition across 190–950 nm with 1 nm resolution, enabling qualitative and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures including pharmaceuticals, environmental contaminants, natural products, and polymer additives. The system operates on standard reversed-phase, normal-phase, ion-exchange, and size-exclusion chromatographic principles—supporting gradient elution, isocratic runs, and method transfer compatibility with legacy Agilent 1100 and newer 1260/1290 platforms. Its modular design allows configuration scalability, from basic isocratic setups to fully automated, temperature-controlled multi-detector workflows.
Key Features
- Modular architecture supporting independent replacement or upgrade of pump, autosampler, column oven, detector, and degasser modules
- G1312B Binary High-Pressure Gradient Pump with flow accuracy ±0.1% RSD and pressure range up to 400 bar
- G1367C Autosampler featuring 100-position vial capacity, low carryover (<0.005%), and programmable injection volume (0.1–100 µL)
- G1330B Thermostatted Tray for precise solvent temperature control (4–40 °C), minimizing baseline drift
- G1316B Column Compartment SL with rapid thermal equilibration (10–80 °C, ±0.15 °C stability)
- G1379B Integrated Degasser and Solvent Tray accommodating up to four solvents with online vacuum degassing
- G1315D Diode Array Detector with dual-beam optics, 1024-pixel array, and real-time spectral scanning at up to 80 Hz
- Pre-calibrated, factory-reconditioned units verified for baseline noise ( 0.999)
Sample Compatibility & Compliance
This reconditioned Agilent 1200 HPLC system is validated for use with standard 3.0–4.6 mm ID analytical columns (including sub-2 µm particle packings when operated within pressure limits) and compatible with common mobile phases (aqueous buffers, acetonitrile, methanol, THF). It meets core performance criteria outlined in USP , EP 2.2.46, and ISO 17025-accredited laboratory requirements when operated under documented SOPs. All refurbished systems undergo full functional testing per Agilent’s Service Quality Assurance protocol—including leak detection, pressure calibration, dwell volume verification, and detector linearity assessment. Systems are supplied with traceable calibration certificates and compliance-ready documentation packages suitable for GLP/GMP audit preparation.
Software & Data Management
The system ships with Agilent ChemStation Rev. B.04.03 or later (license-included), supporting full instrument control, data acquisition, peak integration, spectral library matching, and report generation. ChemStation provides 21 CFR Part 11-compliant features including electronic signatures, audit trail logging (enabled by default), user access levels, and secure data archiving. Raw data files (.D format) are natively compatible with OpenLab CDS for future migration. All software installations include validation documentation templates and IQ/OQ checklists aligned with laboratory quality management systems.
Applications
- Pharmaceutical QC/QA: Assay, related substances, dissolution testing, and stability-indicating methods per ICH Q2(R2)
- Food & Beverage: Pesticide residue screening, preservative quantification, vitamin profiling, and adulterant detection
- Environmental Analysis: PAHs, PCBs, phenols, and emerging contaminants in water and soil extracts
- Academic & Contract Research: Method development, column characterization, and preparative fraction collection interfacing
- Materials Science: Polymer additive leaching studies, surfactant analysis, and monomer purity assessment
FAQ
Is this a factory-refurbished unit or third-party reconditioned?
All Agilent 1200 systems are reconditioned by Agilent-authorized service partners using genuine Agilent spare parts and original firmware. Each unit undergoes full hardware diagnostics, optical alignment, and hydraulic integrity testing.
What documentation accompanies the system?
You receive a Certificate of Reconditioning, detailed test reports (pump flow accuracy, detector noise/wavelength calibration), ChemStation license certificate, and a 6-month limited warranty covering parts and labor.
Can this system be upgraded to support modern communication protocols?
Yes—the G1315D detector and all major modules support LAN connectivity and can be integrated into Agilent’s OpenLab environment via optional firmware updates and interface cards.
Are columns, standards, or consumables included?
No. Columns, guard cartridges, filters, and reference standards are sold separately; however, we provide application-specific consumables recommendations and bulk procurement support.
Do you offer installation and qualification services?
Yes—we deliver remote or on-site IQ/OQ execution, including site preparation guidance, installation verification, operational qualification protocols, and final sign-off documentation compliant with internal QA requirements.
