G1315-68711: Sealing and Biochemical Compatibility for Demanding Medical Use
Designed for medical laboratory, biotechnology and pharmaceutical quality control environments, the Agilent G1315-68711 seal provides an effective barrier between the optical components of the flow cell and the external environment. Thanks to its PTFE material, this seal has high chemical inertness, reducing the risk of interaction with solvents or biological samples, particularly in bio-inert systems.
Its precise diameter of 2.3 mm allows for installation at the outlet of standard, semi-micro, micro or high-pressure detection cells, depending on the compatible models. It is an integral part of the mechanical assembly that ensures a seal between the optical window and the flow chamber. Its design complies with the requirements of Agilent 1200 and 1260 Infinity DAD detectors and is typically used in combination with other components such as quartz or sapphire windows, compression screws and specific washers.
The G1315-68711 is an essential component for preventive maintenance or cell repairs, particularly in environments subject to GLP/GMP validation.
Its compatibility with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) environments makes it a reliable choice for laboratories where measurement accuracy and stability are essential. In particular, it plays a key role in preventing microleaks that can affect the internal pressure of the cell or generate disturbances on the UV signal baseline. Its PTFE material is perfectly suited to the requirements of sensitive quantitative analyses, as it is resistant to both aggressive organic solvents and aqueous solutions, even at extreme pH values in the bio-inert versions of the system.
This rear seal is designed to be easily replaceable without requiring complex disassembly of the detector. Its standardised format ensures quick interchangeability during maintenance operations, minimising system downtime and promoting continuity in laboratory analyses.
