The Sepmatix 8x System Screening HPLC from Sepiatec only uses one external HPLC pump. The flow is separated by the patented Sepmatix Flow Control into eight channels, and the flow in each channel is precisely measured and regulated throughout the entire run. Together with an autosampler and a detector with 8 independent spectrometer modules working in parallel, the result is an unbelievably compact HPLC system, which will instantly enhance the throughput of every research and development laboratory eight times over. It is not necessary to spend time adapting methods to the new system or to purchase any new costly HPLC columns. Different designs of the Sepmatix 8x System Screening HPLC are available for applications such as chiral column screening, protein screening, method development, or with an 8x Fraction Collector for preparative work. The required space for the Sepmatix 8x System Screening HPLC is only 55 x 55 x 90 centimetres (W x D x H).

The preparative version of the Sepmatix 8x HPLC system has an HPLC pump that is equipped with a 100 ml pump head, the max. operating pressure is 400 bar. Flow rates per channel 3.0 to 8.0 ml/ min. For parallel collection of fractions from all 8 channels, the system is additionally equipped with 8 fraction collectors, which are combined in a compact collector module. In the standard version the capacity of the fraction collectors is 6 deep well microtiter plates per channel. Customized solutions for fraction collection can be realized on request.

The Sepmatix SFC 8x parallel system combines Sepiatec’s proven parallel HPLC technology with the advantages of supercritical fluid chromatography. The result is the first SFC system with eight separating columns working in parallel, high operating speed and as yet unmatched performance. In a space of only a few minutes for example enantiomers can be separated on eight different chiral columns at the same time. The automatic variation of the eluents makes it possible to determine the optimal chiral separation in a significantly shorter time than was previously possible.
