Description
See what you've been missing. The highest-performance UPLC system ever engineered, now with a truly inert flow path.The ACQUITY Premier System represents the most significant advance in separation science since Waters introduced UPLC technology in 2004. Built on the proven ACQUITY UPLC platform — delivering true Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography with ultra-low dispersion, sub-2-µm particle compatibility, and best-in-class resolution — it adds a transformative layer of innovation: MaxPeak™ High Performance Surfaces (HPS) Technology. This technology creates a barrier between the sample and every metal surface in the flow path, eliminating the non-specific adsorption that has long plagued analysis of metal-sensitive analytes. The result is sharper peaks, higher recovery, and reproducible results from the first injection — no passivation, no additives, no wasted runs.
Designed holistically alongside ACQUITY Premier Columns and QuanRecovery™ Vials and Plates with MaxPeak HPS, the ACQUITY Premier System delivers a complete end-to-end solution across reversed-phase and HILIC separations for organic acids, organophosphates, oligonucleotides, peptides, glycans, phospholipids, and beyond.
Key Features and Benefits:- MaxPeak HPS Technology throughout the entire flow path eliminates metal-sensitive analyte losses, enabling detection of compounds previously obscured or undetected on conventional LC systems.
- True UPLC performance with ultra-low extra-column dispersion, enabling full exploitation of sub-2-µm column chemistry for superior resolution, sensitivity, and throughput.
- Dramatically reduced system passivation requirements, saving hours to days per assay and lowering reagent costs while increasing lab uptime and productivity.
- Flexible configurations available including Binary Solvent Management for lowest-dispersion LC-MS workflows and Quaternary Solvent Management for broad method development and multi-solvent screening needs.
- Compatible with the full range of Waters detectors — TUV, PDA, FLR — and seamlessly couples with Waters mass spectrometers for confident identification and quantitation of trace components in complex matrices.
- Fully supported in Empower™ CDS, MassLynx™ , and UNIFI™ Software for regulated and non-regulated laboratory environments; ACT environmentally responsible design certification.
