Description
Right-first-time results for every method, every lab, every analyst.The Arc Premier System brings the power of MaxPeak
™ High Performance Surfaces (HPS) Technology to routine HPLC and UHPLC analysis — delivering a new standard of data quality, reproducibility, and confidence for laboratory scientists who cannot afford to lose time troubleshooting methods or re-running failed analyses. Optimized for chromatographic separations on 2.5–3.5 µm column chemistry and holistically designed alongside MaxPeak Premier Columns, the Arc Premier System virtually eliminates the non-specific adsorption between sample analytes and metal surfaces that causes peak broadening, poor integration, and inconsistent results — without requiring complex mobile phase additives or laborious conditioning protocols.
Whether deployed for pharmaceutical method development, quality control release testing, food safety analysis, or environmental monitoring, the Arc Premier System delivers the flexibility, regulatory readiness, and analytical confidence modern laboratories demand, right out of the box.
Key Features and Benefits:- MaxPeak HPS Technology provides up to 5x improvement in detector sensitivity, up to 10x improvement in system-to-system reproducibility, and up to 100x improvement in user-to-user reproducibility for metal-sensitive compounds, with potential savings of 2–3 days per assay by eliminating passivation.
- Versatile solvent management with the Quaternary Solvent Manager supporting blending of four to nine solvents in any combination, and the Binary Solvent Manager-R delivering precise blending at pressures up to 9,500 psi across the full flow rate range.
- High-precision flow-through needle injector with a volume range of 0.1–1,000 µL and ultra-low carryover (=0.002%) for confident LC-MS compatibility.
- Advanced column management supporting up to six analytical columns with independently controlled temperature zones, active pre-heating, and eCord™ Intelligent Chip Technology.
- SmartStart gradient technology enables seamless method transfer from legacy HPLC systems — typically in as few as two injections — without requiring gradient table changes.
- Compliance-ready and fully supported in Empower™ CDS and MassLynx™ Software, with automated System Qualification Tool (SQT) to minimize qualification time and cost under GMP, GLP, ISO 17025, and USP <1058> frameworks..
- Compatible with TUV, PDA, and FLR detectors with MaxPeak HPS-equipped flow cells, and mass detection via ACQUITY QDa, SQD2, Xevo TQS-micro, and Xevo TQS-cronos.
