High-Sensitivity Fluorescence Analysis for Advanced Analytical Laboratories

If your laboratory needs to achieve ultra-low detection limits and eliminate matrix background interference for naturally fluorescent or derivatized compounds, the Waters Alliance 2695 HPLC System with 2475 Multi-Wavelength Fluorescence Detector delivers a proven, high-sensitivity workstation. Powered by the reliable, low-pulsation quaternary solvent delivery of the Alliance 2695 separations module, this platform ensures rock-solid retention time reproducibility and smooth sample injection across large sequence queues. The integrated Waters 2475 detector features an advanced optical path covering excitation from 200–890 nm and emission from 210–900 nm, enabling high-speed, multi-wavelength switching within a single injection sequence to quantify target analytes at trace levels. Capable of outperforming traditional UV detectors in complex matrices, this system serves as an indispensable tool for food safety labs tracking aflatoxins and mycotoxins, environmental facilities measuring the fluorescence-responsive portion of the PAH panel, and pharmaceutical QA/QC operations running API impurity profiles, vitamin assays, and stability testing programs.

Waters Alliance 2695 HPLC System Price and Cost of Ownership: Reliable Performance at Lower Cost

The Waters Alliance 2695 HPLC System with Waters 2475 Fluorescence Detector provides a dependable and cost-effective chromatography solution for pharmaceutical, environmental, food safety, chemical, and research laboratories requiring sensitive fluorescence detection capabilities. Certified refurbished systems typically range from approximately $8,500 to $16,500, offering substantial savings compared to newer comparable platforms such as the Waters Alliance iS HPLC System paired with the Waters 2475 Fluorescence Detector, which commonly range from $65,000 to over $88,000 depending on system configuration and software options. In addition to the initial acquisition cost, laboratories should consider ongoing operational expenses such as HPLC solvents, mobile phase additives, fluorescence lamp replacements, analytical columns, tubing, seals, injector maintenance, autosampler consumables, calibration standards, preventive maintenance, software licensing, and compliance-related qualification support for USP, FDA, EPA, ISO, AOAC, and cGMP workflows. Long-term ownership considerations may also include detector maintenance, pump servicing, replacement electronic components, and optional service contracts to maintain stable chromatographic performance and sensitive fluorescence detection in high-throughput laboratory environments. Purchasing a certified refurbished Waters Alliance 2695 HPLC System with Waters 2475 Fluorescence Detector allows laboratories to significantly reduce capital expenditures while still achieving reliable chromatographic separation, dependable fluorescence sensitivity, and proven long-term analytical performance for regulated and research-based laboratory applications.

EPA Method 610: PAH Analysis using Waters Alliance 2695 HPLC System with Waters Fluorescence Detector 2475

The Waters Alliance 2695 HPLC System with the Waters 2475 Fluorescence (FLR) Detector supports the fluorescence detection channel of EPA Method 610 for the PAH panel that fluoresces; full method compliance requires pairing with a UV detector for naphthalene, acenaphthylene, acenaphthene, and fluorene, which EPA specifies for UV rather than fluorescence detection in this method. Specifically designed for the determination of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in municipal and industrial discharges, this configuration provides the high-precision quaternary solvent delivery and stable gradient elution required to resolve complex mixtures of these semi-volatile organic compounds. The system’s primary advantage lies in the 2475 FLR detector’s ability to utilize time-programmed excitation and emission wavelengths, allowing for the selective and high-sensitivity detection of individual PAHs at trace levels while effectively eliminating non-fluorescent background interference. When validated according to laboratory SOPs, this Waters Alliance configuration offers a rugged, automated, and highly reliable solution for the rigorous demands of environmental monitoring and regulatory PAH analysis.
