Agilent 1100 HPLC with DAD and QuatPump: Applications in Pharma, Food, and Environmental Labs

The Agilent 1100 HPLC System with a Diode Array Detector (DAD) and Quaternary Pump is a versatile liquid chromatography platform widely used in environmental, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, biotechnology, chemical, academic, and industrial laboratories. Common laboratory applications include pharmaceutical assay and impurity testing, environmental contaminant analysis, pesticide residue monitoring, organic acid determination, food additive analysis, natural product characterization, beverage quality control, and raw material verification. The Diode Array Detector provides simultaneous multi-wavelength monitoring and full spectral acquisition, allowing analysts to perform compound identification, peak purity assessment, and quantitative analysis within a single run. The Quaternary Pump offers flexible mobile phase blending and gradient development capabilities, making the system well-suited for method development and a broad range of chromatographic separations. Environmental laboratories frequently utilize this configuration for herbicide, pesticide, and drinking water analyses, while pharmaceutical laboratories rely on it for formulation development, stability studies, and quality control workflows. Combined with proven Agilent reliability, excellent chromatographic performance, robust data quality, and flexible detection capabilities, the Agilent 1100 HPLC with DAD and Quaternary Pump remains a trusted solution for routine and advanced liquid chromatography applications across multiple industries.

Agilent 1100 HPLC with DAD and QuatPump: Refurbished System Benefits and Pricing

The Agilent 1100 HPLC System with a Diode Array Detector (DAD) and Quaternary Pump provides a dependable and cost-effective liquid chromatography solution for environmental, pharmaceutical, food safety, chemical, and research laboratories. Certified refurbished systems typically range from approximately $11,000 to $16,500, offering substantial savings compared to comparable new systems, such as an Agilent 1260 Infinity II LC with a Quaternary Pump and DAD, which commonly range from approximately $32,000 to $45,000 depending on configuration, software, and accessory options. In addition to the initial acquisition cost, laboratories should consider ongoing operational expenses, including HPLC columns, solvents, mobile phase preparation, pump seals, check valves, autosampler maintenance, deuterium lamp replacement, calibration standards, software support, preventive maintenance, and compliance-related qualification services. Long-term ownership costs remain manageable due to the proven durability of the Agilent 1100 platform, readily available replacement parts, and straightforward maintenance requirements. Purchasing a certified refurbished Agilent 1100 HPLC with DAD and Quaternary Pump allows laboratories to significantly reduce capital expenditures while benefiting from flexible gradient capabilities, full-spectrum UV-Vis detection, reliable chromatographic performance, and proven analytical accuracy for applications such as pharmaceutical analysis, environmental monitoring, food testing, pesticide analysis, and routine quality control workflows.
