Connecting the separation column

The intelligent separation column (iColumn) is the heart of the ion chro-
matographic analysis. It separates different components according to their
interactions with the column. Metrohm separation columns are equipped
with a chip where their technical specifications and history (start-up, oper-
ating hours, etc) are stored.

NOTE

Information regarding which separation column is suitable for your
application can be found in the Metrohm IC Column Program, the
product information for your separation column at

directly from your representative.

You can find the separation columns and guard columns currently avail-
able from Metrohm in the Metrohm IC Column Program or on the Inter-
net at

umn. You can find detailed information on special IC applications in the
