1 Introduction
732 IC Detector / 733 IC Separation Center
2
The 732 IC Detector and 733 IC Separation Center are the main com-
ponents of a modular ion chromatography system that can be ex-
panded to meet the wishes of the individual user (see Fig. 1). The
minimum configuration of the one-channel system also includes a 709
IC Pump, a separating column and a recorder. The two-channel system
requires at least a second 732 IC Detector and a second 709 IC Pump.
Printers, integrators, data recording devices, PC and autosamplers can
be attached to both systems. Further, practically all HPLC peripherals
and parts available on the market such as precolumns, additional
separating columns, additional detectors and other injection systems
can be seamlessly integrated in the system.
However, the individual IC units can also be freely combined with
common HPLC instruments. This offers the possibility of expanding
your system to a standalone ion chromatograph.
