Used Flash Chromatography Systems

Used Automated Flash Chromatography Systems

A flash chromatography system is the process of purifying chemical mixtures by rapidly separating compounds using air pressure. Flash chromatography is popular among lab researchers due to its simplicity and speed.

Like other chromatographic techniques, flash chromatography follows the principle of column chromatography, which separates the components of chemical mixtures based on their mobile phase and stationary phase.  While flash chromatography uses compressed air, the column technique uses smaller silica gels and pressurized gas.

Choosing the Right Flash Chromatography System

Understanding your research needs comes in handy when selecting a flash chromatography system. These devices can be expensive, so it's practical to make the most of your equipment.

Design and Setup

Design and setup are primary conditions when choosing lab instruments, especially if you have limited space and want to remain frugal. In flash chromatography, the essentials are a powerful pump, a fully automated system, an optimal flow rate and a huge surface area.

User-Friendliness

Lab work is meticulous, so there's no need to make it even more complicated with instruments that are hard to operate. Some flash chromatography systems come equipped with advanced programming features for data validation. Equipment that allows parameter adjustments and process automation are also wonderful options.

Expansion Features

As you dive deeper into your research, it's possible for your equipment needs to grow as well. A scalable flash chromatography system makes expansion easy and lowers costs while ensuring your equipment is still suitable for your needs.

Size

It's common for facilities to run out of space to house all their equipment.  After all, many laboratory instruments are bulky and take up a significant amount of floor space. This characteristic makes size an important consideration for flash chromatography systems. Opt for a system with a small footprint without compromising functionality.
