Bio-Rad BioLogic LP System User Manual
Biologic, Lp system unique specifications
Unique Features of the BioLogic LP
Stores Up to 50 Methods. Each method can include up
to 50 pump steps (flow rate, buffer selection, and step
duration), 50 collection windows (with or without
threshold values), and three alarms (with or without
programmed hold).
Alphanumeric Naming Protocol. Identify the saved
method with a name up to 12 characters (letters,
numbers, spaces) in length.
Buffer Selection. Program up to five buffers with the
addition of the buffer select valve.
Variable Programming Modes. Program the method in
progress and edit future steps.
On Line Help. Pressing a dedicated HELP key on front
panel of BioLogic LP immediately brings up the help
screens relevant to the task in process.
Single-Point Control. All system components and
functions are controlled from the BioLogic LP controller,
including the fraction collector and chart recorder.
Flow Rates to 40 ml/min.
Conductivity Monitoring. Conductivity flow cell monitors
gradient progress and is included with every LP
system.
LP Dataview
™
Software. UV and conductivity data can
be transferred to any PC. Saves, stores, and prints
methods and run data. Replaces expensive chart
recorders and provides real-time continuous peak scaling.
Automatic Valve Sensing. Valves are automatically
sensed when plugged into the BioLogic LP; therefore, no
manual entry of system configuration is required.
Range Setting. UV and conductivity monitors have
unique user-set range settings in addition to discrete
range settings. The user-set range settings allow
automatic 0–100% scaled output to the chart recorder.
Programmable Methods Cycling. Program a method
to repeat up to 999 times.
Small Volume Mixing. 750 µl dynamic mixer for
accurate, responsive, reproducible gradients.
Sample Injection Flexibility. Automated and manual
sample injection options.
Portable Optics Module. Minimizes dead volume
between column and UV detector for more precise
protein separations.
Precalibrated Peristaltic Pump. Peristaltic pump flow
rates are precalibrated for three common tubing sizes
(0.8, 1.6, 3.2 mm ID tubing).
Flexible, Space-Saving, Modular, and Stackable
Design. The compact design maximizes available
workspace in the coldroom and on the lab bench.
Safety Certification. The BioLogic LP is certified to meet
the I.E.C. 1010 safety standard for safety of laboratory
equipment. (I.E.C. 1010 is an internationally accepted
electrical safety standard for laboratory equipment.)

LP System Unique Specifications
The BioLogic LP chromatography system includes the LP controller housing the peristaltic pump, the BioLogic
rack, and the BioLogic LP accessory kit (MV-6 inject valve, proportioning valve/mixer, UV optics, conductivity cell,
tubing and fittings kit, column and conductivity cell holder, user manual, starter kit). The BioLogic LP low-pressure
chromatography system may also include a fraction collector (either Model 2110 or BioFrac fraction collector),
BioLogic LP Data View software a dual-pen chart recorder (Model 1327), and extra valves (buffer select valve,
column divert/bypass valve).
