This document describes the performance of the Agilent 1200 Series variable wavelength detector SL, including the use of different data rates and different detector cells.
This document evaluates the performance of the Agilent 1200 Series variable wavelength detector SL (VWD SL), specifically focusing on its capability for high-speed applications with a data acquisition rate increased to 55 Hz. The evaluation demonstrates how increasing the data rate improves resolution, sensitivity, and peak capacity for fast liquid chromatography runs.
| Maximum data acquisition rate | 55 Hz |
|---|---|
| Upper limit of linearity | > 2 AU |
| Typical noise level at 3 Hz | < 3 pAU |
The detector supports a data acquisition rate of up to 55 Hz.
The VWD micro cell (1 pL volume) offers the best performance for lowest dispersion and best resolution.
