An HPLC detector is used to analyze the components of the eluted mixture that is collected after being run through an HPLC column. Differences in detector type are based on what is being detected. Detection can be done by measuring absorbance, changes in reflex indices, molecular weight, and fluorescence among others. When selecting a detector, it is important to consider the sample type being analyzed. Some sample types will not work or will have lower sensitivity on particular detectors. Also of consideration is the type of information that is being sought by the analysis and what method will be used when running the column, for example, some detectors will work with the gradient method while others will not.

The MD-4010 PDA detector has high sensitivity, comparable to a single wavelength detector. It uses a 1024 element photometric diode array, with measurement wavelength range from 190 nm to 900 nm and resolution of 1 nm. Fast spectral acquisition rate of up to 100 spectra/sec. The temperature controlled SP type semi-micro flow cell is used narrow peaks typically found with fast UHPLC or RHPLC separations. An integrated mercury lamp is used for automatic wavelength calibration and validation.
The MD-4015 PDA detector is similar to the MD-4010 with equivalent sensitivity, covering the wavelength range from 200 nm to 650 nm using a 512 element PDA for 1nm resolution, and with high speed 100 Hz spectral acquisition.
The MD-4017 uses a CMOS detector covering the UV region from 200-400nm; with 1nm resolution and up to 20Hz spectrum acquisition; useful for peak widths as small as 1 – 2 seconds....

A complete redesign of the optics and electronics, as well as removing the effects temperature fluctuation with a new temperature regulated cell body has led to the highest sensitivity with stable detection.
The new axially irradiated cell design enables the very highest sensitivity detection. These changes have resulted in a leap in sensitivity with signal noise ratio of 2300:1 or higher (water Raman peak). The FP-4025 is an excellent routine fluorescence detector that has a water Raman S/N of 1400:1.
Both detectors can be used for simultaneous detection at two wavelength pairs; excitation and emission wavelengths can be changed during the acquisition using a time program and automatic spectra scanning can be triggered manually, by time or automatically by threshold. A built-in mercury lamp enables automatic wavelength correction and the front-access design allows easy replacement of the flow cell assembly and light source....
