Increase sample capacity for high throughput workflows

Methods get faster and sample sets become bigger. Choose an instrument that doesn't limit your sample capacity.

Your Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ system can run a UHPLC experiment unattended for several days and "not run out of sample"- that would mean use the full weekend to record data. Out of the box, the Vanquish system comes with a vial capacity of 208 samples. You can increase this sample capacity to 8832 samples simply by replacing vials with well plates and adding our Charger module.

The built in bar code reader keeps track of all the sample racks and wellplates. And naturally, all samples are temperature controlled.

Proprietary injection and switching valves

Having 1500 bar pressure capability is not enough— the rest of the system must be built to handle the extended pressure range. To ensure the reliability you need, we have built the valves from scratch, using ceramic wetted parts, for maximum durability and biocompatibility. These Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ dedicated valves are used to introduce the sample, and are also available as switching valves for more advanced applications.

Combined with biocompatible Viper fingertight connection tubing, there is no better flow path imaginable.

Industry-leading pump performance

The Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ System allows you to perform separations up to 1500 bar of column pressure. Add smooth flow delivery and correct gradient composition and you get excellent results.

Over the full pressure and flow range, the Vanquish pump has exceptionally low pressure ripple, contributing to incredible retention time stability. Minimal pulsation ensures that the same flow and gradient are delivered in each run, for consistent results every time.

Fingertight pump check valves

Optimal performance and up-time requires that maintenance be performed easily and efficiently.

As example, the Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ system has fingertight check valves, based on Viper technology. This allows for tool-free maintenance and provides an easy and reliable sealing mechanism.

2x3 solvent channels HPG

Experience the benefits of binary pumping without compromising flexibility.

Binary pumping systems are good for high-throughput applications. By offering a binary pump with 6 solvent channels, the Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ system provides the flexibility required in chromatography. Solvent changing between methods can be done automatically, which provides the ability to run up to 9 different solvent combinations without interrupting your experiment.

Active pre-heating

Temperature rules retention, selectivity and efficiency, so temperature variation during separation must be minimized.

Active pre-heating ensures that the solvent entering the column will match the column temperature and avoids any performance loss from temperature effects. The pre-heater causes minimal dispersion while still providing ideal heat transfer and the installation is as easy as with any Viper connection tubing.

Thermostatting modes

Hosting the LC column means much more than simply "hold and heat." At UHPLC pressures, frictional heat can build up inside the column. The Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ column compartment offers two thermostatting modes, which you can select based on your needs. Maximize chromatographic efficiency with the still-air mode and achieve seamless method transfer with the forced air mode.

System biocompatibility by default

UHPLC is not limited to small molecules. Biomolecular analysis can benefit from the higher resolution and faster analysis this technique offers.

By making the entire fluidic path biocompatible and have temperature control of critical elements the Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ system is also ideal for the analysis of proteins, peptides or DNA.

Viper fittings

Viper fingertight fittings have revolutionized the way connections in HPLC and UHPLC are made.

The Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ system utilizes the Viper fittings in all connections from the pump to the detector. Whether setting up a method or maintaining the system, the Viper fingertight fitting system will ensure that making connections is always tool-free.

Outstanding S/N and linearity of LightPipe DAD

With impurity profiling or other high sensitivity measurements, the difference is in the tiniest details.

The LightPipe™ technology in the Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ detector provides you with an unmatched detection experience. This detector achieves the best signal-to-noise performance through the combination of the lowest baseline noise, a very long light path, and minimum peak dispersion. The ultra-wide dynamic range supports the challenging simultaneous detection of highly concentrated main compounds and impurities down to trace levels. Interfering refractive index and thermal effects are reduced to a minimum for less baseline drift, and therefore more reliable peak integration. This enables you to detect what was separated with confidence.

Columns

There is no separation without a column. Founded on state-of-the-art Core Enhanced Technology, the Thermo Scientific™ Accucore™ Vanquish™ C18 UHPLC columns provide a unique chromatography solution to enhance laboratory workflow and productivity.

This Accucore Vanquish UHPLC column features 1.5 µm solid core particles, which provide ultra-short diffusion path lengths, resulting in the most efficient separations.

Accucore Vanquish UHPLC columns enable laboratories to meet higher throughput demands, by achieving better separations and more results.
