XTerra Shield RP18 Prep Guard Cartridge, 125Å, 10 µm, 7.8 mm X 10 mm, 1/pk
When you’re hard at work in the lab performing prep HPLC separations, the last thing you want is data variability to be created from contaminants in the mobile phase stream. Luckily for you, we’ve developed an HPLC column protection solution that integrates seamlessly into your existing XTerra Shield RP18 Prep Guard Cartridge. We’re happy to present the XTerra Shield RP18 Prep Guard Cartridge, an essential piece of chromatographic equipment that truly changes science for the better. Rather than having to rapidly reproduce with a column that’s fouled, the XTerra Shield RP18 Prep Guard Cartridge protects your prep column by acting as an extra step for the mobile phase stream to move through. As the stream moves, the guard cartridge picks up contaminants and removes them from the workflow.
How do I install the XTerra Shield RP18 Prep Guard Cartridge?
The guard cartridge is supposed to be installed between the mobile phase injector and prep column, but to properly hold the cartridge in place, another part is needed. You need to purchase the Prep Guard Holder if you haven’t done so already, as the holder keeps the cartridge in place and performing exactly as it should. Plus, the Prep Guard Holder is easy to install and remove, making for an easy guard cartridge installation and removal process.
Protecting your preparative HPLC assays from contaminants is one of the biggest challenges when you’re hard at work in the lab. That’s why the XTerra Shield RP18 Prep Guard Cartridge is here to help. This guard cartridge is packed with the same packing material as the XTerra Shield RP18 Column, making for a chemically stable workflow when the cartridge is added. Plus, the XTerra Shield RP18 Prep Guard Cartridge has the same diameter as the column itself, which ensures that no backpressures leak during your assays.
Once you’ve added the XTerra Shield RP18 Prep Guard Cartridge to your lab’s procurement list, make sure to check out everything else we have to offer at Waters. No matter if you need a full LC-MS system for your lab or just require a refill on some classic chromatography consumables, you’ll find it all.
