v.ARC Model 3

Radio-LC System for HPLC & UPLC

The most advanced novel radioisotope detector for HPLC, UPLC, and other high resolution liquid chromatography with the highest online radioisotope detection sensitivity and resolution

Sensitivity/Resolution:

HPLC: Detects down to ~10 CPM peaks with peak width of 10-30 seconds

UPLC: Detects down to ~ 100 CPM peaks with peak width of 3~5 seconds

Spearheading Innovation for LC Research

The pioneering v.ARC (nu-ARC) Model 1 was the first radioisotope detector specifically designed for sensitive online radioisotope detection in HPLC. Today's innovative v.ARC Model 3 has the latest electronic designs and incorporates patented/patent-pending accurate counting technologies invented by AIM Research Company. The v.ARC Model 3 offers unmatched performance and powerful capabilities for UPLC, HPLC, and other high-resolution liquid chromatography with sub-micron partice packed columns.
