AZURA® VWD 2.1L Variable Wavelength Detector, fiber optics version
without Test and Flow Cell, without Fiber Optic Cables, 190-900 nm
The AZURA VWD 2.1L is a versatile variable wavelength detector designed to adapt seamlessly to your needs.
In combination with a classic KNAUER flow cell, it supports analytical HPLC by detecting up to four compound-specific wavelengths across 190–900 nm at data rates of up to 5 Hz (for four UV channels) or 100 Hz (for one channel).
When equipped with KNAUER’s patented CombiLight flow cell, the VWD 2.1L goes even further—simultaneously monitoring conductivity and eluent temperature alongside up to four UV/VIS channels. To complete FPLC systems, a pH glass electrode can be connected for real-time pH monitoring.
Thanks to its flexible design, the VWD 2.1L can be easily converted between flow cell and fiber-optics version. One detector, multiple possibilities - stay flexible and ready for any project that comes your way.
