The Pump Manager C-615: Intelligent Control Unit for Precise Separations
The C-615 by Büchi is a control unit designed to enhance the efficiency and precision of separation processes in medical and scientific applications. Its intelligent design addresses the complexities of managing solvent gradients and pressures, making it indispensable for laboratories and research institutions.
At the heart of the C-615 is its intuitive interface. The selector switch allows for effortless operation and programming, enabling users to set up and modify parameters with ease. This functionality is complemented by a large, backlit LCD graphic display that provides real-time data and system status, ensuring users are always informed of their processes.
One of the standout features of the C-615 is its ability to control up to two pump modules (C-601/605). This capability allows for the precise creation of binary solvent gradients, essential for many separation tasks. The system's linearity is maintained at an impressive ±2%, guaranteeing consistent and reliable results across a wide range of applications.
The C-615 is equipped with numerous inputs and outputs, including connections for two solvent selection valves, two level sensors for solvent monitoring, and a pressure sensor for precise pressure regulation. This array of connectivity options allows for comprehensive control and monitoring of the separation process, enhancing both efficiency and safety.
Users can save programs directly on the unit, facilitating the quick recall of frequently used setups. This feature, combined with the automatic calculation of time and solvent requirements, streamlines the workflow and reduces the potential for errors.
For enhanced functionality, the C-615 can communicate with an optional Fraction Collector C-660. This integration expands the system's capabilities, making it suitable for more complex and high-throughput applications.
Standard accessories for this pump manager include a mixer with an integrated pressure sensor, green fittings, ferrules, and a Torx allen wrench. These components ensure users have everything needed for immediate setup and operation.
Optional accessories further extend the versatility of the C-615. These include various injection valves, sample loops, sample chambers, and solvent level sensors. Each accessory is designed to integrate seamlessly with the C-615, providing tailored solutions for specific applications.
The Büchi C-615 is a versatile and intelligent control unit that significantly enhances the capability and reliability of separation processes. Its combination of intuitive operation, precise control, and extensive connectivity makes it a valuable asset for any laboratory focused on achieving high-precision results.
