We require that the system capable of running 2mm and 4µm columns – and these must be included in the system quotation. The system must be able to run both suppressed anions and suppressed cations from one instrument, allowing the option to switch between these chemistries as needed. Electrolytic eluent generation must be offered integrated into the system. Eluent generation must allow the ability to change concentration throughout a run. Please quote hydroxide compatible columns and suppressors.

We also require an integrated autosampler that allows individual filtration of sample at least a 20 microns, facilitating the removal of particulates during sample loading automatically. The autosampler must have sample overlap capabilities to start sample preparation while the instrument is acquiring data
