Agilent G1316A HPLC Column Oven with Temperature Control -10 to 80°C for Agilent 1100 Series

The Agilent G1316A is a thermostatted column oven designed specifically for the Agilent 1100 Series HPLC systems, optimizing chromatographic temperature regulation essential in molecular diagnostics, bioprocessing, and biotechnology research. Featuring a precise Peltier-driven heating and cooling system, it maintains a temperature range from 10°C below ambient to 80°C with temperature stability of ±0.15°C and accuracy of ±0.8°C.

Key technical specifications include:

• Capacity to hold up to three 30 cm columns simultaneously, supporting complex multi-column chromatography workflows.
• Integration of two heat exchangers ensures efficient solvent pre-heating, minimizing solvent viscosity changes and improving reproducibility in biopharmaceutical production pipelines.
• Automated column identification module via CAN cable facilitates seamless recognition and operation within the HPLC stack, enhancing operational efficiency in molecular cloning and synthetic biology protocols.
• Rapid warm-up and cool-down performance, achieving 40°C from ambient within 5 minutes, crucial for workflows requiring swift temperature cycling.
• Minimal dead volume of 3 µL (left exchanger) and 6 µL (right exchanger) reduces peak broadening, a critical parameter for high-precision fluorescence analysis and cell imaging studies.

Weighing approximately 12 kg (26.4 lbs) with compact dimensions, this column oven is compact, robust, and fits seamlessly into existing Agilent 1100 Series HPLC stacks. The device is widely used in clinical diagnostics and biomedical engineering laboratories, offering reliable thermal control indispensable for reproducible chromatographic separations and enhanced analytical performance in advanced biotechnology research.
