Features
The ICS-5000 Reagent-Free™ IC (RFIC™) system with Eluent Generation is the world’s first capillary IC system. Developed with flexibility, modularity, and ease-of-use in mind, the ICS-5000 combines the highest sensitivity with convenience.
With the ability to analyze samples at capillary, microbore, or standard flow rates (or any combination of two, in a dual system), the system is simply Always Ready. The wide variety of ICS-5000 modules allows you to configure an ion chromatography system designed specifically to provide the solutions you need.
The Dionex ICS-5000 is the first system with an all-PEEK flow path capable of operating continuously at 5000 psi. Reagent-Free HPIC systems redefine the way ion chromatography is performed.
This Dionex Ics-5000 Ion Chromatography System includes:
- Dionex ICS-5000 Dual Pump (DP)
- Dionex ICS-5000 Eluent Generator (EG)
- Dionex ICS-5000 Detector/Chromatography Module
- Dionex AS-50 Autosampler
- A 90-day warranty
This refurbished Dionex Ics-5000 Ion Chromatography System is in great condition. It has been tested at SpectraLab Scientific.
