The OPTI-GUARD® 3 mm Columns maintains the tool-free connectivity of the OPTI-GUARD 1 mm, but incorporates a cartridge based format to allow for a larger bed with more capacity. The two-part holder is designed for use with any analytical column to provide vital protection from dirty samples and strongly retained contaminants. An auto-adjusting stem conforms to any tube stop depth for a perfect zero-dead-volume connections.Key…
OPTI-SEAL® Piston/Plunger Seals are the longest lasting seals on the market. Machined from either of two proprietary polymer blends, UHMW-PE or ITB, Optimize Seals provide the ultimate in high pressure sealing capacity. For mostly aqueous buffered mobile phases, OPTI-SEAL® UHMW-polyethylene is the wisest choice. Specially designed to be more resistant to abrasion and wear than standard polyethylene seals, they can last up to s…
Optimize realizes that your time is valuable and should not be wasted worrying about fittings. For this reason, all Opti-Lock Fittings are precision machined in the USA for optimal quality and thread consistency. The machining process is the best way to ensure tight manufacturing tolerances and minimal product variance. What does all this mean? It means that every fitting you purchase from Optimize will perform just as well as…
Optimize Back Pressure Regulators utilize an active mechanism to maintain steady back pressure across a range of mobile phase viscosities and flow rates. Placing one downstream from your detector will prevent solvent decompression and bubble formation in the flow cell, reducing baseline noise and drift. Each pre-set Optimize stainless steel Back Pressure Regulator offers a 100µL internal volume and includes fittings for immedi…
Optimize Replacement Pistons/Plungers are, by design, a consumable part of the HPLC pump and should be replaced on a regular preventative maintenance schedule. To maintain peak performance and avoid unplanned downtime, sapphire pistons require inspection every six months with yearly or as-needed replacement. Optimize sapphire pistons offer optimal concentricity and resistance to wear. Each sapphire rod is specifically cut in r…
The OPTI-LYNX™ Quick Connect Filters allow you to connect any 10-32 valve/port for trapping or analytical column for pre-column filtration. With OPTI-LYNX™, accessing and changing the insert takes only a quarter turn. Replace traps, filters or change configurations in seconds, without tools. OPTI-LYNX™ traps and filters (ordered separately) come in several bed volume/ diameter/ porosity combinations, allowing you to find your…
The OPTI-LYNX™ Quick Connect Trap Columns allow you to quick-connect to any 10-32 valve/port for trapping or analytical column for pre-column filtration. With OPTI-LYNX™, accessing and changing the insert takes only a quarter turn. Replace traps, filters or change configurations in seconds, without tools. OPTI-LYNX™ traps and filters (ordered separately) come in several bed volume/ diameter/ porosity combinations, allowing you…
The OPTI-LYNX™ QuickConnect Guard Column is a high-performance, cartridge-based guard system, suitable for use with any 10-32 analytical column due to its auto-adjusting ZDV port adapter. OPTI-LYNX™ combines effective column protection with the convenience of quick-connect operation. Some cartridge-based guard column products offer convenience with a price: higher internal volumes. Optimize Technologies, refuse to compromise p…
