Shimadzu HPLC Control
Shimadzu HPLC Control
Direct control of Shimadzu LC-10 and LC-20 (Prominence) series using Clarity Chromatography Software.
The Clarity Chromatography Station allows for direct control of selected Shimadzu HPLC components which are controlled through the SCL-10AVP or CBM-20A (Lite) controllers. Optional control modules enable Clarity to provide integrated instrument control and to ensure complete automation for laboratories.The control module includes parameters for the HPLC pumps, column oven, detectors (including PDA), autosampler, etc. A dedicated PDA Extension enables the evaluation of data from PDA systems.
A single Clarity station can only control one Shimadzu LC-10/20 System. This is the restriction of MIMIC libraries used to perform the instrument control.
