Product description

Refractive index detector for HPLC with 4-part photodiode, temp-controlled housing, and flow rates to 150 mL/min.

The Shimadzu RID-10A is a high-performance refractive index detector designed for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) systems. It offers precise and reliable detection of analytes lacking chromophores, making it indispensable for laboratories analysing compounds such as sugars, lipids, and polymers.

Key features include:

  • Patented 4-partition photodiode technology: Ensures excellent linearity over a wide concentration range, enhancing analytical accuracy.
  • Double temperature-controlled housing: Minimises baseline drift and reduces warm-up time, facilitating faster analyses.
  • Versatile operational modes: Supports analytical, semi-preparative, and preparative applications, accommodating flow rates up to 150 mL/min with an optional bypass valve.
  • GLP/GMP compliance: Provides automated system checks, including optical balance adjustment and memory diagnostics, ensuring consistent performance.

This detector is widely utilised in pharmaceutical analysis, biotechnology research, and polymer chemistry, particularly for gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and size exclusion chromatography (SEC) applications. Its ability to detect compounds without UV absorbance makes it essential for bioprocessing and biomanufacturing workflows.

Commonly found in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and biopharmaceutical companies, the RID-10A has been a trusted instrument since its introduction in the 1990s. While newer models are available, it remains in use due to its reliability and precision.

Shimadzu's legacy of innovation in analytical instrumentation is exemplified by the RID-10A, reflecting their commitment to advancing scientific research and industrial applications.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
